A soy sauce koji mold, Aspergillus flavus var. columnaris Raper and Fennel (ATCC 44310), was treated with UV irradiation to obtain mutant strains possessing high protease activities, high amylase activities, and light-colored conidia. Selected mutant strains were tested for toxicity, and some were found acutely toxic to weanling rats, although all were negative for aflatoxin production.

in order to evaluate cardinal temperatures and optimum thermal range of germination of three medicinal plants including ajowan, fennel and dill an experiment was conducted in a completely randomized design with three replications. temperatures considered for this study were: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35 ?c. results indicated that temperature affected germination rate and percentage of these cro...
