abstract：:Mated cultures of Blakeslea trispora, grown in a potato extract-glucose-thiamine medium, produced 10 to 15 times more beta-carotene than either unmated culture. Mated, but not unmated, cultures produced a family of compounds (beta factor) which stimulated carotenogenesis in unmated cultures. In fact, carotenogenesis w...
