Phoma genus is a mold that is often detected in food and living environments, but it is originally a plant pathogenic that parasitizes plant leaves, stem branches, and roots, and its alterations are suspended in the air, so it can be easily collected by the drop method. In rare cases, it also parasitizes humans.
