微生物诱导子对霉素PT95菌株菌核生物量和类胡萝卜素产率的影响

菌核是许多丝状真菌形成的一种休眠体。我们从土壤中分离到一株经鉴定属于Ｐｅｎｉｃｉｌｌｉｕｍｔｈｏｍｉｉｓｅｒｉｅｓ的ＰＴ95青霉菌株 ,该菌株能在固态培养基上形成大量坚硬的砂粒状的菌核 (直径约 30 0 μｍ)。ＰＴ95菌株的菌核与众不同之处在于可以积累以β 胡萝卜素为主的类胡萝卜素1 ] 。菌核的形成 ,除了遗传因素外 ,还受多种因素影响 ,例如生长环境中的温度、水势 (Ｗａｔｅｒｐｏｔｅｎｔｉａｌ)、有机物成分等2～ 4] 。Ｈａｗｋｅｒ5] 认为对真菌的营养生长 (Ｖｅｇｅｔａｔｉｖｅｇｒｏｗｔｈ)有利的物质也对菌核生长有…

Effect of Microbial Elicitors on Sclerotia Biomass and Carotenoid Yield in Surface Cultures of Penicillium sp.PT95

Six kinds of elicitors were prepared respectively from Neurospora crassa, Monascus purpureus, Sporobolomyces roseus, Rhodotorula rubra, Nocardia sp. N89 and Actinoplanes sp. A05. When Penicillium sp. PT95 was incubated in Czapek's agar plates containing appropriate amounts of elicitors, both its sclerotia biomass and carotenoid content accumulated in sclerotia were enhanced significantly (P < 0.01). Among tested elicitors, the elicitors from the fungi N. crassa, M. purpureus, S.-roseus and R. rubra were more effective than those from the actinomycetes Nocardia sp. N89 and Actinoplanes sp. A05; the elicitor from M. purpureus gave the highest carotenoid yield of 599 micrograms/plate, 2.76 times higher than that of control. Every one of elicitors except that from M. purpureus could increase significantly the proportion of beta-carotene in total carotenoids (P < 0.01).
