*Penicillium occitanis* Jain, S.; Parriche, M.; Durand, H.; Tiraby, G. 1990^[1]

Penicillium occitanis is a species of the genus of Penicillium which produces cellulase and pectinase.^[1]^[2]^[3] The mutant Pol6 produces a very high amount of cellulase and pectinase.^[3] This mutant might be used for industrial use.^[3]
