EFFECT OF DIFFERENT NITROGEN SOURCES ON THE GROWTH OF WOOD-DESTROYING FUNGI IN CULTURE (Vliyanie Razlichnikh Istochnikov Azota na Rost Derevorazrushayu Shchikh),
Abstract
In the cultivation of fungi of the family Polyporaceae on synthetic media with asparagine or urea as the only nitrogen source there is a relatively rapid growth of mycelium containing a high percentage of total nitrogen. Ammonium salts of organic acids are a good source of nitrogen for wood-destroying fungi, provided that the pH of the nutrient medium is controlled. The investigated species of Basidiomycedes cannot use nitrates as the only nitrogen source. (Author)
