Highly efficient protocol is developed for indirect somatic embryogenesis from transgenic immature leaf of safflower Carthamus tinctorius (Mohler, Roth, Schmidt & Boudreaux, 1967) (Asterales: Asteraceae) explants in solid culture. Here two different half strength mediums like MSG and EMM both were tested in addition to inorganic and organic nitrogen sources and also combination of the reference medium. Inorganic nitrogen source shows about 39.5 number of embryos with 37% embryo germination and organic Nitrogen source like L-glutamine (20 uM) on reference medium influenced 80.5 number of somatic embryos with 44.9% germination. However, maximum of 92.0 number of embryo induction with 52.5% germination was noticed on CH (casein hydrolysate) (1.5 mg/L) containing medium. Combination of inorganic and organic nitrogen sources like NH4NO3 (40 uM) in combinations with reduced form of organic nitrogen casein hydrolysate (CH) (1.5 mg/L) was found to be most suitable for induction of somatic embryos with a maximum of 117 number of somatic embryos with 60.9% germination in immature leaf explants. About 57% plant conversion rate showed in NARI-6 cultivar after 2 weeks of culture. However it showed maximum plant conversion rate about 68% with basal medium along with 1.5% sucrose supplemented with GA3 (1.5 uM) and spermidine (1.0 uM). Germinated embryos with shoot and root poles were isolated and subcultured on suitable root induction medium containing NAA (2.5 uM) + AgNO3 (1.5 uM) showed maximum rooting frequency of about 69.6%.

The recent study has demonstrated the effects of different nitrogen sources on vanillin production by Phanerochaete chrysosporium. Primary screening supported maximum biotransformation of ferulic acid (from lemongrass leaves hydrolysate) to vanillin by using ammonium chloride and yeast extract as inorganic and organic nitrogen source, respectively. With the 2-level factorial analysis, the optimum conditions of vanillin production from ferulic acid by P. chrysosporium was achieved at 0.192g/L with a molar yield of 24.5%.

Macroconidia of Sporidesmium sclerotivorum, a mycoparasite of Sclerotinia spp., were induced to germinte by aqueous and ethanolic extracts of sclerotia of Sclerotinia minor. Paper chromatography of sclerotial extracts indicated the presence of several amino acids and carbohydrates, chiefly glucose. Glucose was identified as the principal germination stimulant in ethanolic extracts. Glucose, fructose, mannose, cellobiose, sucrose, maltose, trehalose, soluble starch, and glycerol at 0.1% (w/v) stimulated macroconidia to germinate in 3–6 days at 25 °C. Crude sclerotial extracts, and glucose combined with inorganic and organic nitrogen sources, supported germination of greater numbers of macroconidia than glucose alone. Yeast extract, Casaminc acids, peptone, and several carbon substrates alone did not support germination. Macroconidia germinated well (> 30%) over the range of pH 3–7; maximum germination (> 80%) occurred at pH 5.0–5.5. Mycelial growth in a glucose – Casamino acids - mineral salts medium was also greatest in the range of pH 5.0–5.5, but growth fell off sharply below pH 4.5 and above pH 6.0. The fungus grew slowly on several complex agar media adjusted to pH 5.5.

Growth of Rhizobium japonicum No. 508 in a mineral salts – mannitol medium with 0.01 M NH4Cl and 0.2 g/l casein hydrolysate as nitrogen sources was inhibited by as little as 0.001 μg/l biotin. When 0.01 M NH4Cl and 0.2 g/l glutamic acid were the nitrogen sources, biotin inhibited growth at a concentration of 0.1 μg/l. Growth inhibition by biotin was observed in various defined media. When vitamin-free casein hydrolysate was the organic nitrogen source, there was slightly less inhibition. However, the degree of inhibition remained independent of the casein concentration. Additions of amino acids did not affect the inhibition. The effect was minimal when the organism was grown in medium containing undefined yeast extract even in the presence of added biotin. In such medium, growth was stimulated by the addition of avidin. When biotin was added to an actively growing culture, no inhibition occurred. If the biotin was removed from an inhibited culture, growth was reestablished. In media containing α-ketoglutarate, biotin did not inhibit growth of the organism, and with succinate, biotin was slightly stimulatory.

Abstract The effects of the carbon and nitrogen substrates on the growth of Bacillus sp. SG113 strain were studied. The use of organic nitrogen sources (peptone, beef extract, yeast extract, casein) leads to rapid cellular growth and the best results for the Bacillus strain were obtained with casein hydrolysate. From the inorganic nitrogen sources studied, the (NH4) 2SO4 proved to be the best nitrogen source. Casein hydrolysate and (NH4) 2SO4 stimulated the invertase synthesis. In the presence of Jerusalem artichoke, onion and garlic extracts as carbon sources the strain synthesized from 6 to 10 times more inulinase.
