Abstract:The abilities of conidia of four deep-sea fungi, Aspergillus flavus NIOCC20, A. sydowii CH2, A. terreus A4636 and Penicillium sp. A4623 and one terrestrial fungus, A. terreus MTCC479 to germinate under simulated deep-sea conditions were investigated by exposing the conidia to low temperature (4 °C) and elevated hydrostatic pressures (10, 20, 30, 40, 50 and 60 MPa). The conidial germination was evaluated in presence of chemical inducers, including Thiamine, Sodium pyruvate, Hydrochloric acid, Sulphuric acid and… Show more
