Aspergillus labruscus sp. nov., a new species of Aspergillus section Nigri discovered in Brazil

Abstract A novel fungal species, Aspergillus labruscus sp. nov., has been found in Brazil during an investigation of the fungal species present on the surface of grape berries (Vitis labrusca L.) for use in the production of concentrated grape juice. It seems to be associated to V. labrusca, and has...
