In this work, we introduce a stochastic growth-fragmentation model for the expansion of network filaments, or mycelium , filamentous fungus. model, each individual is described by discrete type

Abstract Leading the palm oil industry, Malaysia strives to become powerhouse of producers. However, it is crucial that industry does not influence environment negatively in any way. Thus, reusing and repurposing residues mushroom farming one potential solutions for agricultural waste management. In this study, objective study determine mycelial performance V. volvacea empty fruit bunch (EFB) f...

Riceberry rice is a whole grain variety, which rich in vitamin E, anthocyanin, phenolic acids, flavonoids, phytosterol antioxidants and fiber. The nutritional of could be further improved by germination process, with this process the g-aminobutyric acid (GABA) samples increased. Furthermore, solid stage fermentation (SSF) grains fungi have been employed food industry such as fermented Aspergill...

544 The scientists at Engineering College of Lorena, Brazil and Faculty of Chemical Engineering, Colombia reported the effect of fungal pretreatment of sugarcane straw in the performance of the treated pulps. Fermentation time, fungal mycelium load and pretreatment scale were studied in the fungal treatment, and the best conditions were 15 days with Fungal treatment of sugarcane straw for organ...

A chemically defined medium giving high yields of aflatoxins has been reported from this laboratory (Reddy, Viswanathan & Venkitasubramanian, 1971). Many workers have studied the incorporation of [ 1J4C]acetate into aflatoxins (Adye & Mateles, I 964; Donkersloot, Hsieh & Mateles, 1968; Detroy & Hesseltine, 1969; Hsieh & Mateles, 1970, 1971). Labelled acetate is efficiently incorporated into afl...

The r6le of specific sexual hormones in the sexual reaction of two hetero-thallic species of Achlya has been described in earlier papers of this series.' Four specific substances were postulated, two secreted by the 9, bringing about specific reactions in the e, and two secreted by the c, inducing specific responses in the 9. On the basis of evidence available at that time it seemed that the en...

Sugar beet waste has potential value as a soil amendment and this work studied whether fermentation of the waste by Aspergillus niger would influence the growth and P uptake of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi. Plants were grown in compartmentalised growth units, each with a root compartment (RC) and two lateral root-free compartments (RFC). One RFC contained untreated soil while the other RFC...

During the life cycle of the streptomycetes, large numbers of hyphae die; the surviving ones undergo cellular differentiation and appear as chains of spores in the mature colony. Here we report that the hyphae of Streptomyces antibioticus die through an orderly process of internal cell dismantling that permits the doomed hyphae to be eliminated with minimum disruption of the colony architecture...

Sanchez-Marroquin, A. (University of Mexico, México D.F.). Constancy of characteristics in the streptomycetes. J. Bacteriol. 83:1183-1192. 1962.-A total of 150 Streptomyces strains isolated from soil was studied during a 3-year period in regard to constancy and variation of the following characteristics: sporophore micromorphology, color of the aerial and substrate mycelium, surface configurati...

Aerial mycelium and hyphal strands of Agaricus bisporus, strain U1, exhibited a rodlet pattern at their surfaces characteristic for assembled class I hydrophobins. An SDS-insoluble/trifluoroacetic-acid-soluble fraction from strands was found to contain one abundant protein with an apparent molecular mass on gel of 19 kDa. Two sequences for this protein (ABH3), typical of class I hydrophobins, c...
