Carbon sources,growth, sclerotium formation and carbohydrate composition of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum
Summary
Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) D By. was grown in stationary liquid mineral-salts medium, pH 4.3, containing various carbon sources and the weight of mycelia and sclerotia was determined at regular intervals. When grown on various glucose concentrations (0–24 g of C/l), more sclerotia were produced at 8–12 g of C/l. Sclerotia were not usually formed in shake cultures. The ability of the fungus to use other carbon sources for growth and sclerotium formation was tested at 12 g of C/l in the stationary mineral-salts medium. The highest weights of mycelia and sclerotia occurred with raffinose, sucrose, maltose, lactose, d-mannose, d-glucose, d-fructose or l-arabinose. Good growth but decreased sclerotium production were found on cellobiose and d-xylose. Reduced or poor growth, a long lag period and few or no sclerotia occurred on trehalose, melibiose, l-sorbose, l-rhamnose, d-ribose, d-arabinose, l-xylose or 8 polyols. No growth was observed with erythritol or i-inositol. A combination of glucose plus trehalose or polyols resulted in increased growth and the formation of sclerotia. Organic acids supported little or no growth and no sclerotia were produced. Generally culture filtrates which supported growth and formation of sclerotia became acid (about pH 3.5). The pH of the culture filtrate usually increased slowly during the growth period when the fungus grew poorly and no sclerotia were formed. The alcoholsoluble sugars and polyols present in culture filtrates, mycelia and sclerotia were determined by paper and thin-layer chromatography. Regardless of the carbon source, mannitol was usually present in culture filtrates. The occurrence of other compounds in the filtrates depended on the carbon source. Trehalose, mannitol and usually small quantities of glucose or fructose were present in mycelia and sclerotia from all carbon sources. Galactitol or pentitols occurred in mycelia and sclerotia when the fungus grew on galactose and oligosaccharides containing galactose or the corresponding pentose, sugars. Acid hydrolyzates of the alcohol-insoluble fraction of mycelia or sclerotia contained glucose, smaller amounts of galactose and mannose and traces of ribose and rhamnose. 相似文献

As found by Starr (1946),l-glutamic acid is necessary for the growth ofXanthomonas phaseoli var.fuscans. According to our results, the growth is stimulated byl-asparagine in the presence ofl-glutamic acid;l-asparagine itself, however, does not serve as a source of carbon and nitrogen.Xanthomonas phaseoli var.fuscans grew well in a medium containing tryptone. Some peptides of the acidic fraction isolated from tryptone affected the growth
as much as tryptone itself. Vitamins and plant growth substances did not affect the growth of the bacteria; proteins appeared
to be a poor carbon and nitrogen source. On substituting glucose in a glutamic acid-containing medium with another saccharide,
the growth of the bacteria was found equal or better in media containing mannose, sucrose, fructose, maltose or starch. The
bacteria grew less satisfactorily in media containing galactose and cellobiose as compared with media containing glucose. 相似文献

Growth and l-lactic acid production on 24 different carbohydrates and polyols (glycerol, mannitol and sorbitol) by Rhizopus arrhizus CCM 8109 were determined. The d- but not the l-forms of xylose, fructose, galactose, mannose, glucose, cellobiose, maltose and sucrose and partially hydrolysed starch were converted to l-lactic acid. Changes in lipid formation and fatty acid composition were detected in biomass grown on the different sugars. In the presence of polyols, growth and considerable production of lipids were observed with little or no lactate production. Invertase was mainly associated with the mycelium during growth on sucrose, whereas glucoamylase and -amylase were produced extracellularly during growth on starch.The authors are with the Department of Biochemical Technology, Faculty of Chemical Technology, Slovak Polytechnical University, Radlinského 9, SK-812 37 Bratislava, Slovak Republic 相似文献

The oxidation of 17 carbon compounds by 13 strains ofMicrococcus luteus was studied. It was shown that all strains oxidized Na-acetate, Na-lactate, glycerol, glucose, galactose, sucrose, maltose and fructose. The oxidation of mannitol, sorbitol, xylose, ribose, rhamnose, starch, lactose and arabinose was variable. Dulcitol was not oxidized at all. We have shown that the species, considered byKocur andMartinec (1962) to be identical withM. luteus, possess the same oxidation pattern. 相似文献

Sugars supplied to germinating seedlings of maize (Zea mays L.) regulate the secretion of polysaccharides by the outer cells of the root cap. The polysaccharide secreted by these cells adheres to the root tip as a droplet and the size of the droplet was used to quantitate polysaccharide secretion. The polysaccharide contains glucose, galacrose, and galacturonic acid residues with smaller quantities of mannose, arabinose, xylose, fucose and rhamnose. These sugars supplied to maize seedlings had marked effects on the rate of polysaccharide secretion by root tips. The effects on secretion were independent of the growth rates of the roots. Glucose, fucose and xylose increased droplet size 1.5–2 fold (as did sucrose, maltose, lacrose, fructose and ribose) whereas galactose, arabinose and galacturonic acid were inhibitory. Mannose increased dropler size 5–7 fold. The marked effect of mannose on polysaccharide secretion was due to an increased rate of secretion combined with a longer phase of extrusion of polysaccharide into the forming droplet. The effect of mannose was partially reversed by inorganic phosphate and other sugars (except for fucose which had no effect or promoted secretion in the presence of mannose). In contrast to sucrose, mannose stimulated secretion in a maize variety having a high sugar endosperm (high endogenous sugar). The results suggest that regulation of secretion by mannose is due to an alteration of normal sugar metabolism; whereas stimulation of secretion by sucrose and other sugars may be due to an increased availability of sugars for metabolism. 相似文献

To develop a new enzymatic xylose-to-xylitol conversion, deeper knowledge on the regulation of xylose reductase (XR) is needed.
To this purpose, a new strain of Debaryomyces hansenii (UFV-170), which proved a promising xylitol producer, was cultivated in semi-synthetic media containing different carbon
sources, specifically three aldo-hexoses (d-glucose, d-galactose and d-mannose), a keto-hexose (d-fructose), a keto-pentose (d-xylose), three aldo-pentoses (d-arabinose, l-arabinose and d-ribose), three disaccharides (maltose, lactose and sucrose) and a pentitol (xylitol). The best substrate was lactose on which
cell concentration reached about 20 g l−1 dry weight (DW), while the highest specific growth rates (0.58–0.61 h−1) were detected on lactose, d-mannose, d-glucose and d-galactose. The highest specific activity of XR (0.24 U mg−1) was obtained in raw extracts of cells grown on d-xylose and harvested in the stationary growth phase. When grown on cotton husk hemicellulose hydrolyzates, cells exhibited
XR activities five to seven times higher than on semi-synthetic media. 相似文献

Trichoderma reesei Rut C-30 was grown on eight different natural or rare aldopentoses as the main carbon source and on mixtures of an aldopentose with d-glucose or lactose. The fungal cells consumed all aldopentoses tested, except l-xylose and l-ribose. The highest total xylanase and cellulase activities were achieved when cells were grown on l-arabinose as the main carbon source. The total xylanase activity produced by cells grown on l-arabinose was even higher than that produced by cells grown on an equal amount of lactose. In co-metabolism of d-glucose (15 g l–1) and l-arabinose (5 g l–1), the total volumetric and specific xylanase productivities were improved (derepressed) approximately 23- and 18-fold, respectively, compared to a cultivation on only d-glucose (20 g l–1). In a similar experiment, in which cells were grown on a mixture of lactose and l-arabinose, the xylanase productivity was approximately doubled, compared to a cultivation on only lactose. The cellulase productivities, however, were not improved by the addition of l-arabinose. Compared with a typical industrial fungal enzyme production process with lactose as the main carbon source, better volumetric and specific xylanase productivities were achieved both on a lactose/arabinose mixture and on a glucose/arabinose mixture. 相似文献

Summary The growth ofMicrosporum Cookei, M. distortum, andM. nanum was compared on solid media containing 23 different carbon sources and 25 different nitrogen sources.M. nanum grew well only on media containing ribose, xylose, levulose, or erythritol as the carbon source.M. distortum andM. Cookei were found to utilize a far greater variety of carbon sources. Both grew well on dextrose, levulose, galactose, mannose, ribose, arabinose, rhamnose, sucrose, cellobiose, lactose, trehalose, melibiose, melezitose, raffinose, dextrin, and mannitol; in additionM. Cookei grew well on xylose, maltose, and erythritol. Aspartic acid, arginine, and citrulline were favorable sources of nitrogen for all three species.
M. nanum also grew well on alanine, ornithine, histidine, and proline;M. distortum on glycine, serine, asparagine, glutamic acid, leucine, and cysteine; andM. Cookei on asparagine, tyrosine, ornithine, histidine, leucine, isoleucine, and proline.WithM. Cookei andM. distortum grown in liquid media in shake culture, mannitol was the best carbon source and tyrosine the best of the nitrogen sources tested. Nutritional differences exist among these three species,M. Audouini, M. canis, andM. gypseum.From a thesis, under the direction of Dr.Frederick T. Wolf, submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts, August 1961. 相似文献

Summary Low molecular weight nitrogenous impurity compounds as well as raffinose are negative quality factors that interfere with
efficient processing of sugarbeet (Beta vulgaris L.) for sucrose. In order to identify nutrient media for cell selection of biochemical mutants or transgenics that might
have reduced levels of these processing impurities, the ability of 10 endogenous compounds to serve as sole nitrogen or carbon
source for suspension plating and subculture callus growth was evaluated. The most productive concentrations of nitrate, ammonium,
l-glutamine, l-glutamate, urea, and l-proline as sole nitrogen sources supported plating callus growth at 106, 159, 233, 167, 80, and 52%, respectively, as well
as the historical 60 mM mix of nitrate and ammonium in Murashige-Skoog medium. Glycine betaine and choline did not support growth. d(+) Raffinose and d(+) galactose supported plating callus growth only 67 and 25%, respectively, as well as sucrose as sole carbohydrate source.
No callus growth occurred on glutamine, glutamate, or glycine betaine as the sole carbon or carbon plus nitrogen source. Platings
on either nitrate or ammonium as sole nitrogen source did not differ in sensitivity to the nitrate uptake inhibitor phenylglyoxal,
suggesting that phenylglyoxal lacks the specificity for use in selection for mutants of nitrate uptake. The ability of raffinose
to be used as the carbon source, and glutamine or glutamate as the nitrogen source, may preclude their use for selection of
genetic variants accumulating less of these processing impurities. However, mutants or transgenics able to utilize either
glutamine, glutamate, or glycine betaine might be selectable on media containing any one of these as carbon, nitrogen, or
carbon plus nitrogen source, respectively, that is incapable of supporting wild-type cell growth. 相似文献

Nodal segements were taken from juvenile shoots of mature 100 year-old trees of saucer magnolia (Magnolia x soulangiana Soul.-Bod.) and cultured on Standardi and Catalano medium supplemented with 1.33 μmol·dm−3 BA, 0.54 μmol·dm−3 NAA, 58 μmol·dm−3 sucrose and 6.0 g·l−1 agar-agar. After 8 weeks, separated shoots were transferred to rooting medium with half-strength macronutrients (basal medium)
supplemented with 0.3% activated charcoal and one of carbohydrates: arabinose, cellulose, fructose, galactose, glucose, lactose,
mannose, rhamnose, ribose, sorbose, sucrose or xylose at 20 g·dm−3 and 7.0 g·dm−3 agar-agar. After 13 weeks of culture, shoot number, fresh and dry weight of shoots and roots, total root length and number
of roots/per shoot were recorded. Percentages of rooted shoots were calculated. Fructose, mannose and xylose were the most
effective carbon source on shoot proliferation followed by sucrose. The rooting response was induced by cellulose and xylose.
Arabinose, rhamnose and sorbose inhibited root formation. The number of adventitious roots produced per shoot was stimulated
by cellulose and xylose. Total biomass (shoot plus roots) of the plantlets was the highest at fructose and cellulose. 相似文献

Cost-effective and efficient ethanol production from lignocellulosic materials requires the fermentation of all sugars recovered
from such materials including glucose, xylose, mannose, galactose, and l-arabinose. Wild-type strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae used in industrial ethanol production cannot ferment d-xylose and l-arabinose. Our genetically engineered recombinant S. cerevisiae yeast 424A(LNH-ST) has been made able to efficiently ferment xylose to ethanol, which was achieved by integrating multiple
copies of three xylose-metabolizing genes. This study reports the efficient anaerobic fermentation of l-arabinose by the derivative of 424A(LNH-ST). The new strain was constructed by over-expression of two additional genes from
fungi l-arabinose utilization pathways. The resulting new 424A(LNH-ST) strain exhibited production of ethanol from l-arabinose, and the yield was more than 40%. An efficient ethanol production, about 72.5% yield from five-sugar mixtures containing
glucose, galactose, mannose, xylose, and arabinose was also achieved. This co-fermentation of five-sugar mixture is important
and crucial for application in industrial economical ethanol production using lignocellulosic biomass as the feedstock. 相似文献

The effect of nitrogen and carbon sources, vitamins, antibiotics and metabolic inhibitors on growth and differentiation ofPaecilomyces viridis was investigated. Sodium nitrate,l-asparagine,l-proline and peptone were found to be suitable nitrogen sources for mycelial growth (M) in a synthetic medium with glucose.Paecilomyces viridis could also grow slowly in a synthetic medium containing benzylpenicillin or bacitracin as the only nitrogen sources and very
slowly even in a medium with polymyxin as the nitrogen source. Ammonium salts, area,l-arginine,d, l-aspartic acid andl,-serine were found to support intensive sporulation. Partially yeast-like growth (Y) was facilitated by NaNO2, (NH4)2SO4, NH4NO3, urea,d, l-alanine,l-arginine,d, l-aspartic acid,l-cysteine,l-glutamic acid andl-serine. Partially yeastlike growth could be observed in a medium with peptone and at an initial pH of 2. The following compounds
appear as suitable carbon sources for mycelial growth:d-glucose,d-galactose,d-mannose, maltose, sucrose, chitin andd-mannitol. No changes in morphology could be detected on any of the 25 used carbon sources in a synthetic medium with NaNO3. Yeast-like growth was induced by the antibiotics azalomycin F, cyanein (brefeldin A), griseofulvin and monorden (radicicol).
After removal of the antibiotics, mycelial growth was restored. Sporulation was stimulated by chloramphenicol, 2-deoxy-d-glucose, furancarboxylic acid and stipitatic acid. Deformation of phialides was observed after treatment with actinomycin
D, amphotericin B, boromycin, citrinin, cycloheximide, cytochalasin D, fungicidin and scopathricin. Microcyclic conidiation
or growth of phialides directly from conidia were induced by cycloheximide, desertomycin, ethidium bromide and 5-fluorouracil. 相似文献

Corynebacterium glutamicum wild type lacks the ability to utilize the pentose fractions of lignocellulosic hydrolysates, but it is known that recombinants
expressing the araBAD operon and/or the xylA gene from Escherichia coli are able to grow with the pentoses xylose and arabinose as sole carbon sources. Recombinant pentose-utilizing strains derived
from C. glutamicum wild type or from the l-lysine-producing C. glutamicum strain DM1729 utilized arabinose and/or xylose when these were added as pure chemicals to glucose-based minimal medium or
when they were present in acid hydrolysates of rice straw or wheat bran. The recombinants grew to higher biomass concentrations
and produced more l-glutamate and l-lysine, respectively, than the empty vector control strains, which utilized the glucose fraction. Typically, arabinose and
xylose were co-utilized by the recombinant strains along with glucose either when acid rice straw and wheat bran hydrolysates
were used or when blends of pure arabinose, xylose, and glucose were used. With acid hydrolysates growth, amino acid production
and sugar consumption were delayed and slower as compared to media with blends of pure arabinose, xylose, and glucose. The
ethambutol-triggered production of up to 93 ± 4 mM l-glutamate by the wild type-derived pentose-utilizing recombinant and the production of up to 42 ± 2 mM l-lysine by the recombinant pentose-utilizing lysine producer on media containing acid rice straw or wheat bran hydrolysate
as carbon and energy source revealed that acid hydrolysates of agricultural waste materials may provide an alternative feedstock
for large-scale amino acid production. 相似文献

Sucrose presence and concentration modulated in different ways and to different extents the activity of six plant glycoside
hydrolases (PGHs) extracted from apple callus cultures, both in the water soluble fraction (WS-F) and in the NaCl-released
fraction (NaCl-F). β-d-Glucosidase activity increased because of sucrose starvation and the addition of sucrose decreased both WS-F and NaCl-F β-d-glucosidase from calli grown in a Murashige and Skoog’s basal medium with (MSH) or without (MS0) plant growth regulators
(PGRs). WS-F and NaCl-F α-l-arabinofuranosidase, NaCl-F β-d-galactosidase and NaCl-F β-d-xylosidase activity reached a maximum when 0.045 M sucrose was added to the MS0 medium with an ensuing decline at higher
sucrose concentrations. α-d-Galactosidase and α-d-xylosidase activity reached a maximum when 0.045 M sucrose was supplied and did not decline significantly in 0.09 M sucrose-supplied
calli. When the effects of PGR presence or absence were analysed, NaCl-F β-d-glucosidase, α-d-galactosidase, β-d-galactosidase, α-d-xylosidase and β-d-xylosidase activities were found to be higher in MS0 than in MSH. To assess whether sugar effects were sucrose-specific,
other sugars (glucose, fructose, galactose, maltose, lactose, raffinose, sorbitol and mannitol) were tested, with or without
PGR supplementation. In general, sugar alcohols (mannitol, sorbitol) and some monosaccharides (fructose and glucose in particular)
were better inducers of NaCl-F α-l-arabinofuranosidase, β-d-galactosidase and β-d-xylosidase activity than disaccharides (sucrose, maltose, and lactose) or the trisaccharide raffinose. This trend was not
widespread to all PGHs assessed since sucrose-supplemented calli displayed higher NaCl-F α-d-galactosidase than those supplemented with glucose, galactose, sorbitol or mannitol. These results show that sugars supplied
to callus tissue cultures as a carbon source can also modulate PGH activity. Modulation is different for each PGH, sugar-specific
and, at least in the case of sucrose, concentration-dependent. Results also suggest the existence of regulatory interactions
between PGRs and sugars as part of an intricate sensing and signalling network. Combination of PGR, sugar type and concentration
should be taken into account to maximize each PGH activity for further enzyme studies. 相似文献

A novel thermoacidophilic strain, designated RT8-4, was isolated from an acidic hot spring in Tengchong, Yunnan, China, and characterized phenotypically and phylogenetically. Cells of strain RT8-4 are irregular cocci with peritrechous flagella. The strain grows aerobically in either a lithotrophic or a heterotrophic mode. No anaerobic growth is apparent. Growth on elemental sulfur occurs through the oxidation of sulfur. Strain RT8-4 is capable of utilizing tryptone, d-xylose, d-arabinose, d-galactose, maltose, sucrose, d-fructose, or l-glutamic acid as the sole source of carbon. d-Glucose and d-mannose are not utilized. RT8-4 grows optimally at 85 °C and pH 3.5. The G+C content of the genome of RT8-4 is 34.4 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rDNA sequence as well as DNA–DNA hybridization and phenotypic characterization identifies strain RT8-4 as a novel species in the genus Sulfolobus. It is proposed that strain RT8-4 be designated as Sulfolobus tengchongensis sp. nov. The type strain is RT8-4T.Communicated by K. Horikoshi 相似文献

Plant cells utilize various sugars as carbon sources for growth, respiration and biosynthesis of cellular components. Suspension-cultured
cells of azuki bean (Vigna angularis) proliferated actively in liquid growth medium containing 1% (w/v) sucrose, glucose, fructose, arabinose or xylose, but did
not proliferate in medium containing galactose or mannose. These two latter sugars thus appeared distinct from other sugars
used as growth substrates. Galactose strongly inhibited cell growth even in the presence of sucrose but mannose did not, suggesting
a substantial difference in their effects on cell metabolism. Analysis of intracellular soluble-sugar fractions revealed that
galactose, but not mannose, caused a conspicuous decrease in the cellular level of sucrose with no apparent effects on the
levels of glucose or fructose. Such a galactose-specific decrease in sucrose levels also occurred in cells that had been cultured
together with glucose in place of sucrose, suggesting that galactose inhibits the biosynthesis, rather than uptake, of sucrose
in the cells. By contrast, mannose seemed to be metabolically inert in the presence of sucrose. From these results, we conclude
that sucrose metabolism is important for the heterotrophic growth of cells in plant suspension-cultures. 相似文献

The sheath of the unicellular cyanobacterium Gloeothece sp. PCC 6501 was isolated from cell homogenates by differential and sucrose gradient centrifugation, followed by lysozyme treatment and hot sodium dodecyl sulfate extraction. The sheath contains a major fraction of carbohydrate consisting of galactose, glucose, mannose, rhamnose, 2-O-methyl-d-xylose, xylose, glucuronic and galacturonic acids, but only traces of fatty acids and phosphate. A protein content of about 2% (of fraction dry weight) could not be removed by the detergent treatment.Abbreviation SDS

Spores of Monilinia fructicola, Colletotrichum coccodes, Botrytis cinerea, Alternaria alternata and Mucor mucedo were transferred to agar plates containing 0.5, 5 or 50 mM concentrations of various plant cell wall-related monosaccharides or glucose. The wall-related monosaccharides tested were arabinose, galactose, galacturonic acid, mannose, rhamnose and xylose. Germ tube length was measured after 24 h. Growth of germ tubes on media containing the different monosaccharides varied substantially among fungi. The most striking response was with M. mucedo; spores were only able to grow on media containing glucose or galactose.Increase in colony size was determined during a 7-day period after subcultures were transferred to media containing 5 mM arabinose, galactose, galacturonic acid, mannose, rhamnose and xylose, each with and without 5 mM glucose. Glucose, alone or in conjunction with any other monosaccharide, was the optimal carbon source for growth. In general, fungi were unable to grow as well on any of the wall-related monosaccharides without glucose. Galacturonic acid and rhamnose, major components of pectic polysaccharides of plant cell walls, were unable to support any growth of M. fructicola cultures. No wall-related monosaccharides supported more than 50% of the growth observed when M. mucedo cultures were grown on glucose. 相似文献

A putative N-acyl-d-glucosamine 2-epimerase from Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant enzyme was identified as a cellobiose 2-epimerase by the analysis of the activity for substrates, acid-hydrolyzed
products, and amino acid sequence. The cellobiose 2-epimerase was purified with a specific activity of 35 nmol min–1 mg–1 for d-glucose with a 47-kDa monomer. The epimerization activity for d-glucose was maximal at pH 7.5 and 75°C. The half-lives of the enzyme at 60°C, 65°C, 70°C, 75°C, and 80°C were 142, 71, 35,
18, and 4.6 h, respectively. The enzyme catalyzed the epimerization reactions of the aldoses harboring hydroxyl groups oriented
in the right-hand configuration at the C2 position and the left-hand configuration at the C3 position, such as d-glucose, d-xylose, l-altrose, l-idose, and l-arabinose, to their C2 epimers, such as d-mannose, d-lyxose, l-allose, l-gulose, and l-ribose, respectively. The enzyme catalyzed also the isomerization reactions. The enzyme exhibited the highest activity for
mannose among monosaccharides. Thus, mannose at 75 g l–1 and fructose at 47.5 g l–1 were produced from 500 g l–1 glucose at pH 7.5 and 75°C over 3 h by the enzyme. 相似文献

Summary The kinetics, nutritional requirements and inhibitor properties of basidiospore germination in the wood-rotting mushroom Schizophyllum commune were investigated. Measurements of changes in absorbancy and dry weight showed a lag period of approximately 15–20 hrs, followed by an abrupt increase in the rate of both processes. Individual basidiospore elongation also showed a lag phase and population changes were heterogenous in this regard.Carbohydrates active for basidiospore germination were grouped into four categories. Those sugars active between 15 and 20 hrs included glycogen, turanose, cellobiose, maltose, sucrose, glucose, fructose, mannose, galactose and xylose. Several sugar alcohols were only active between 30 and 60 hrs incubation and these included mannitol, sorbitol, ribitol, xylitol, arabitol, erythritol and glycerol. A third category of carbohydrates active for germination required prolonged incubation between 30 hrs and 7 days and included lactose, sorbose, raffinose, melezitose, trehalose, ribose and melibiose. Compounds without activity after 7 days included galactitol, inositol, acetate, succinate, gluconate, citrate, fumarate, rhamnose, fucose and inulin.Nitrogen sources active in basidiospore germination included complex organic nitrogenous substrates, asparagine, glutamine, arginine, urea and various ammonium salts.Germination was inhibited by cycloheximide, l-ethionine, p-fluoro-dl-phenylalanine, sodium azide, 2,4-dinitrophenol, phenylmercuric acetate and 2-deoxy-d-glucose. Alkali as a trapping agent arrested germination in glucose-(NH4)2SO4 medium but was without ill-effect in glucose peptone broth. 相似文献
