Fleming’s penicillin producing strain is not Penicillium chrysogenum but P. rubens
Open accessAbstract
Penicillium chrysogenum is a commonly occurring mould in indoor environments and foods, and has gained much attention for its use in the production of the antibiotic penicillin. Phylogenetic analysis of the most important penicillin producing P. chrysogenum isolates revealed the presence of two highly supported clades, and we show here that these two clades represent two species, P. chrysogenum and P. rubens. These species are phenotypically similar, but extrolite analysis shows that P. chrysogenum produces secalonic acid D and F and/or a metabolite related to lumpidin, while P. rubens does not produce these metabolites. Fleming's original penicillin producing strain and the full genome sequenced strain of P. chrysogenum are re-identified as P. rubens. Furthermore, the well-known claim that Alexander Fleming misidentified the original penicillin producing strain as P. rubrum is discussed.
Overview
AI snapshot
Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
Phylogenetic and extrolite analyses show that *Penicillium chrysogenum* sensu lato comprises two species, *P. chrysogenum* and *P. rubens*. Fleming’s original penicillin-producing strain, the Wisconsin wild-type strain, and the full genome-sequenced strain are all re-identified as *P. rubens*.
Key findings
- Combined β-tubulin, calmodulin, and RPB2 data resolve two highly supported clades: one around the ex-type of *P. chrysogenum* (CBS 306.48), the other around the ex-type of *P. rubens* (NRRL 792).
- Fleming’s original penicillin strain (CBS 205.57), the wild-type Wisconsin strain (CBS 307.48 = NRRL 1951), the full genome-sequenced strain Wisconsin 54-1255, and the submerged-production strain CBS 197.46 = NRRL 832 all fall in the *P. rubens* clade.
- *P. chrysogenum* produces secalonic acid D and F and/or a lumpidin-related metabolite, whereas *P. rubens* does not produce these metabolites.
- Phenotypic macro- and microscopic characters did not clearly separate the two species; three strains showed deviating growth: CBS 355.48 had smaller colonies, while NRRL 792 and CBS 307.48 had reduced sporulation on most agar media.
Methods
- Morphology: strains from Table 1 were inoculated on CYA, YES, CREA, and MEA, incubated 7 d at 25 °C, and examined macro- and microscopically.
- Molecular analysis: partial β-tubulin, calmodulin, and RPB2 were sequenced; maximum likelihood used RAxML v. 7.2.8 with GTR and separate partitions, and maximum parsimony used MEGA5 with 500 bootstrap replicates; *P. griseofulvum* CBS 185.27 was the outgroup. The calmodulin partition was 506 bp with 90 distinct alignment patterns, RPB2 was 981 characters with 91 distinct patterns, and β-tubulin was 434 bp with 62 distinct patterns; parsimony analysis found 118 parsimony-informative sites (3150 MP trees, length = 400, CI 0.69, RI 0.83).
- Extrolite analysis: strains were grown 7–14 d at 25 °C on YES, CYA, and MEA, then extracted and analyzed by HPLC-DAD against characterized compounds.
Limitations
- Stated in the paper: the status of Scott et al. lineage 3 remains under investigation; a more detailed molecular or extrolite analysis is needed to place additional synonyms within *P. chrysogenum*, *P. rubens*, or other unrecognized species; and the suggestion that *P. rubens* has a competitive advantage in indoor niches requires investigation of distribution patterns in other geographic regions.
- Evident from the text: phenotypic examination did not reveal clear differences between the two species, so separation depends on molecular and extrolite data; the study focuses on historically important penicillin-producing strains rather than a comprehensive population sample.

What the sources say
- Partly supportedcites van den Berg et al. 2008 sourceExperimental — accuracy not yet measured
The Abstract and Methods identify Wisconsin 54-1255 as the P. chrysogenum strain whose genome was sequenced; the Abstract also says industrial strains derive from NRRL1951. Neither passage, nor the additional passages searched, says Wisconsin 54-1255 was re-identified as P. rubens. That central taxonomic claim is therefore unsupported by this source. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-30, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-30 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
