Abstract
Effect of different fungicides on growth and biosynthesis of pigments by A. niger, A. terreus, A. flavus and P. funiculosus were studied. Biosynthesis of pigments was shown to increase by 160-200 % on medium containing fungic ides. At the same time biosynthesis of pigments was inhibited on the medium contained inhibitors of pigmentogenesis (EDTA in concentration of 0.1 % or DMSO in concentration of 1.0 %). In the case when both fungicides and DMSO or EDTA were added into the medium biosynthesis of pigments was inhibited by 140-200 %.
