Penicillium (/ˌpɛnɪˈsɪliəm/) is a genus of ascomycetous fungi that is of major importance in the natural environment, in food spoilage, and in food and drug production. Some members of the genus produce penicillin, a molecule that is used as an antibiotic, which kills or stops the growth of certain kinds of bacteria.
