Abstract
Selected strains of Trichoderma spp. were grown on 10 different solid media substrates and analyzed for the production of 6-n-pentyl-2H-pyra n-2-one (6PAP). Using the highest yielding medium from this study, gro und corn plus a liquid supplement, 15 Trichoderma isolates were screen ed, and this led to the identification of two high yielding strains. B y selection of solid media, liquid supplement, and harvest time, the y ield of 6PAP was improved from ca. 200 up to about 1000 mg/kg. These r esults will provide an indication for future production studies leadin g to the development of a bulk-scale fermentation process.
