Abstract | ||
Four local fungal isolates were used in this study to produce pigments using some agro- industrial wastes via solid state fermentation. The maximum production of pigments by Talaromyces purpureogenus (MT232241.1) was obtained when broken wheat was used as a substrate, after 9 days of incubation , at 25°C , 60% moisture content, 3ml of spore suspension as inoculum , pH5and under dark light condition. In case of Fusarium oxysporum (KU671032.1) the highest level of pigments obtained by using broken rice, after 12days of incubation , at 30°c , 60% moisture content, 3ml of spore suspension as inoculum , pH and under dark light By using 3ml of spore suspension as inoculum of Aspergillus penicillioides (MT594382.1) the maximum pigment production was achieved with broken wheat as a substrate after 12days of incubation , at 25°C, 60% moisture content, pH6 and under red light condition. By using the corn cobs as a substrate, the fungal Trichoderma lixii (MW805725) showed high pigment production after 12days of incubation, at 30°C, pH6, when the moisture content was 60%, 4ml of spore suspension was used as inoculum, and under dark light condition. | ||
