Abstract
In this study, olive oil mill and alcohol factory wastewaters have been tes ted as growth media for the production of plant growth hormones. Funalia tr ogii ATCC 200800 and Trametes versicolor ATCC 200801 have been tested. Gibb erellic acid (GA(3)), abscisic acid (ABA), indole acetic acid (IAA), and cy tokinin were determined in the culture media of these fungi. Both organisms produced enhanced levels of all three hormones in the presence of either o f the wastewaters.
