D-glucose, starch, maltose and mannitol were best source for growth and L-asparaginase production by all three thermophilic caprophilous fungi under investigation. Similarly L-asparagine, L-arginine, L-tyrosine and L-histidine were good nitrogen sources for both growth and L-asparaginase production. Production of the variance of the data showed the significant difference (P&lt;0.05) among the three thermophilic caprophilous fungi with regards to carbon and nitrogen source.</p>1 aAjmeera, Shanthi, Priya1 aRao, Vankudoth, Koteswara1 aSreelatha, B.1 aSivadevuni, Girisham1 aReddy, Solipuram, Madhusudha  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/effect-nutritional-factors-growth-and-l-asparaginase-production-three-thermophilic
