Description 797-804
The GC-MS analysis of secondary metabolites of Clonosatchys rosea (C. rosea) reveals the presence of antimicrobial
and antifungal compounds which is essential attire for any biocontrol agent to be commercialized. Experimental evidence
showing importance of carbon and nitrogen sources on growth and sporulation of C. rosea (TNAU CR 01) has been
undertaken. Among eleven carbon sources tested, dextrose has been found to be effective followed by sucrose in improving
the mycelial growth and sporulation of the fungus. Casein has been identified as a significant nitrogen source responsible for
the improvement in fungal growth and sporulation followed by potassium nitrate, phenylalanine and sodium nitrite. When
considering the future commercialization of novel biocontrol agents like C. rosea, the current study will be useful in
understanding the importance and choice of nutritional sources required for their growth and development of biocontrol
agents and chemical analysis of secondary metabolites will be helpful in understanding their mode of action against
phytopathogens.
