Abstract
Sporothrix schencki infesting
the Bitter gourd (Momordica charantia L.) was collected from the
research area to study the production of dry mycelial biomass. For the present
study, Czapek-Dox solid and liquid media was used. For the physiological
studies, 10 days old culture of Sporothrix schencki was used. The fungal
pathogen was isolated on the Czapek-Dox solid media and then transferred in the
test tubes slants. The dry mycelial biomass production was recorded for 10 days
and it was observed that the maximum dry biomass was recorded on the 9th
day i.e. 189 mg. The media was later inoculated with ten different carbon and
nitrogen sources. It was observed that the maximum dry biomass production was
recorded on galactose and control i.e. NaNo3 while the minimum dry
mycelial biomass was recorded on mannitol and CO(NO3)2.
