متن کاملPeptide antibiotic K-582 production in relation to amino acid metabolism in Metarrhizium anisopliae.
Formation of the basic antibiotic, K-582 was stimulated by supplying Metarrhizium anisopliae U-47 with several amino acids present in its structure. The addition of L-arginine to the basal medium resulted in the almost exclusive formation of K-582 B, while L-lysine increased K-582 A formation. Some carbon sources were observed to have effects similar to those obtained with the above mentioned a...
متن کاملPotential of Destruxins from Metarrhizium Anisopliae for the Control of the Honeybee Parasitic Mite Varroa Destructor
