H. Yanai et al., ICE NUCLEUS PRODUCTION OF FUSARIUM-MONILIFORME VAR SUBGLUTINANS IN RELATION TO ITS GROWTH-CHARACTERISTICS, Bioscience, biotechnology, and biochemistry, 60(9), 1996, pp. 1516-1518
The effects of culture conditions on the ice nucleus production of Fus
arium moniliforme var, subglutinans isolated from the gut of larvae of
the rice stem borer (Chilo suppressalis Walker) were examined. The ic
e nucleus production was only affected by cultivation temperature and
pH: the optimum temperature and pH were 15 degrees C to 20 degrees C a
nd 4.0 to 6.0, respectively.
