大熊猫源枝孢样枝孢霉的生物学特性

将大熊猫源枝孢样枝孢霉在不同培养基以及不同温度、不同pH、不同碳源和不同氮源的培养基中培养,以十字交叉法研究了各因子对其生长的影响。结果表明,该菌的最适培养基是马铃薯葡萄糖琼脂培养基和沙氏琼脂培养基,较差的是改良大米琼脂培养基和玉米琼脂培养基,最差的为子囊孢子培养基和察氏琼脂培养基。该菌最适生长温度是25℃,较差的是15℃和20℃,30℃和35℃中几乎不能生长。最适pH为pH5和pH6,pH4和pH8～pH11中生长稍差,最差的是pH7。不同碳源对该菌生长无显著差异。最适合该菌生长的氮源为硝酸钠,其次是草酸,生长较差的是硫酸铵,在尿素中不能生长。结果明确了枝孢样枝孢霉生长的最适宜环境,可为该菌引起的暗色丝孢霉病的诊断及防治提供参考。
