Isolated in association with various plants including tomato, hot pepper, eggplant, potato, perilla, sesame and sunflower. It is found
epiphytically on rice leaves and in rice rhizosphere.
One isolate from human lung lesions.

Pathogenic for rice as a major cause of rice grain discoloration and seedling rot. Produce two plant-affecting toxins, fervenulin and
toxoflavin.
Possible opportunistic pathogen for immunodeficient organisms (one report in an infant with cystic fibrosis).
