Biological properties of Phoma macrostoma related to non-dermatophyte onychomycosis

We report a rare case of non-dermatophytic onychomycosis of the toenail caused by Phoma macrostoma. Was studied the biological properties of the strain isolated in Kazakhstan. P. macrostoma forms pink colonies, the reverzum is pink-orange. The mycelium is colorless, septate. The appearance of growth...
