Abstract

Summary: A mutant of strain MEN, which was unable to produce mycelia in SSV medium and in horse serum at 37 °C, was isolated by a physical separation procedure. The mutant was shown to be derived from the parental strain by growth and morphology studies, sugar uptake and fermentation patterns, and the presence of genetic markers.
