Genus of fungi
Cladophialophora genus of fungi in the family Herpotrichiellaceae . It has 35 species.[ 1] black yeast -like fungi, some of which are species of important medical significance. Cladophialophora bantiana phaeohyphomycosis .[ 2] Cladophialophora carrionii chromoblastomycosis in semi-arid climates .[ 3] endophytes –associating with plants. For example, Cladophialophora yegresii cactus endophyte, which is sometimes introduced into humans via cactus spines.[ 4]
Taxonomy
The genus was proposed in 1980 by Italian-born Venezuelan microbiologist and mycologist Dante Borelli. The type species was assigned to Cladophialophora ajelloi Ugandan case of chromomycosis .[ 5]
