When Penicillium sp.PT95 was incubated in Czapek’s agar plates containing appropriate amounts of elicitors, both its sclerotia biomass and carotenoid content accumulated in sclerotia were enhanced significantly (P<0.01). Among tested elicitors, the elicitors from the fungi N.crassa, M.purpureus, S.roseus and R.rubra were more effective than those from the actinomycetes Nocardia sp.N89 and Actinoplanes sp.A05; the elicitor from M.purpureus gave the highest carotenoid yield of 599μg /plate, 2.76 times higher than that of control. Every one of elicitors except that from M.purpureus could increase significantly the proportion of β-carotene in total carotenoids (P<0.01).展开更多
