  Cocos nucifersa's Watery endosperm as a potential culture medium for fungal growth
 
 
Title: Cocos nucifersa's Watery endosperm as a potential culture medium for fungal growth
Author: F. M. M. T. Marikar
Appeared in: Micologia aplicada international
Paging: Volume 21 (2009) nr. 2 pages 63-66
Year: 2009
Contents: An alternative culture medium to grow Colletotrichum gloeosporioides on coconut watery endosperm agar and broth was developed. The medium is based upon the watery endosperm from Cocos nucifera, which contains nutrients promoting mycelial growth and sporulation. Sucrose (40%) further enhanced fungal growth in the broth. Dilution of watery endosperm reduced mycelial growth rate by 50%. The coconut watery endosperm is cheaper and more easily available than commercial potato dextrose agar medium in tropical regions.
