common in soils. In soil analyses‚ using dilution plate techniques‚ Penicillium species are detected with high frequency (Domsch et al.‚ 1993). However‚ very little is known of interactions between Penicillium species and other soil fungi‚ or even on plan growth. Penicillium species generally occurr at greater soil depths than species of other genera‚ and have low concentrations in rhizosphere soils (Domsch et al.‚ 1993). Some species of Penicillium are well known for their activities to produce antibiotics
