Peer Review

[edit]

Hi Sisizhenyu,

Just leaving some constructive feedback for your article! I think you have a good start on your article, but I would include a separate section on your fungus' pathogenecity, and include the part about it causing otomycosis in that section rather than under Physiology. I also found more information for you to include about P. spinolosum and its ability to cause disease--here is an article that talks about how your fungus can release mycotoxins, which we learned about in class: [[1]]. Here is more information you can include about P. spinolosum and its ability to cause spoilage of beverages: [[2]]. Interestingly, I also found an article detailing how P. spinulosum growth in buildings can cause respiratory problems in mice (and therefore this can have human repercussions). Take a look if you want: [[3]]. All of these articles together will really help the content of your article, specifically about its potential to be very pathogenic. You may want to talk about how many Penicillium species are actually used in drug production (i.e. to help humans--they are very often used in antibiotics!) and how your particular species is, in contrast, highly pathogenic. Have fun with your article and happy researching!

All the best,
