Geotrichum candidum causal agent of tomato sour rot, has the potential to infect a wide variety fruits and vegetables. In this work, in vitro antifungal activity Chitosan (Chi), Potassium Sorbate (PS), Sodium Bicarbonate (SB), Carbonate (SC) their mixtures were evaluated. The PS SC treatments showed 100% inhibition mycelial growth (MG), germination, sporulation. Regarding SB, 1.5 2.0% concentra...

Konya Kuflu Tulum cheese is a well-known variety of Turkish mold-ripened cheeses produced by cutting the mature into pieces to allow filamentous fungi grow on its surface in cool and humid atmosphere cellars or caves. The aim present study was determine fungal flora using 54 8 yeasts that were isolated from 26 samples. Internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequencing indicated 53 mold isolates Peni...

The specific activities of enzymes catalyzing the ammonium-dependent carbamyl phosphate synthesis (NH(3)-CPS) and the glutamine-dependent carbamyl phosphate synthesis (GLN-CPS) were increased during germination by approximately 5-and 1.7-fold respectively in the presence of 35 mm urea. The increase of NH(3)-CPS and GLN-CPS levels occurred immediately after the onset of germination and prior to ...

A preparation of pure protoplasts of Geotrichum candidum became osmotically stable and colonies developed when the protoplasts were embedded in stabilizing thin-layer-agar and incubated with stabilizing basal medium. When growing protoplasts were exposed to distilled water and then reincubated with basal medium, the process of regeneration of protoplasts could be quantitatively demonstrated by ...

Abstract Globally, textile industries are one of the major sectors releasing dye pollutants. This is first report on positive correlation between toxicity and chemical oxygen demand (COD) effluent along with proposed pathway for enzymatic degradation acid orange 10 using Geotrichum candidum within a very short stretch time (18 h). Removal efficiency this mycoremedial approach after 18 h in term...
