Figure 3
A comparison of the (a) mass of defatted extract of fungal growths in liquid media, (b) mass of defatted extract of fungal growths on solid media, (c) percentage of organic extract retained after the defatting step (liquid media), and (d) the percentage of organic extract retained after the defatting step (solid media). Data plotted are means ± SD of three replicate growths per culture medium. The “Negative” series in solid media (b and d) refers to the mass of extracted solid media alone, with no fungal growth. The same data for liquid cultures were negligible and therefore not shown. Abbreviations of media are defined in the Methods section.
