 * Symbol possible vote.svg I find the first hook most interesting, but I'll leave that decision to the promoter. Character count 136 for first hook, 64 for second hook. Both hooks neutral, don't focus on negative aspects of living people. "Fumu" cited; discovery in apples cited; new to science in 2010 OK. QPQ reviewed. No images in article or hook. Article 2685 characters, new enough. Article is neutral. Can you rework the following to avoid close paraphrasing:


 * Our article: "a fast growth rate on agar media, the ability to grow on malt extract agar"
 * Source: "a fast growth rate on agar media, the ability to grow on malt extract agar"


 * Our article: "also produces penitrem a isofumigaclavine a and cyclopaldic acid"
 * Source: "also produces penitrem a isofumigaclavine a and cyclopaldic aicd"

Otherwise, this looks good to go. Seattle (talk) 18:08, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
