Methods: Fusarium species associated with the finger millets were isolated and identified phenotypically and further confirmed by molecular methods by Polymerase Chain Reaction [PCR]. Monosporic seven day old F. aethiopicum and F. culmorum were grown in CYA broth and incubated at 27±2°C on rotary shaker for 21 days at 120 rpm. At the end of 21 day incubation period, cultures were harvested for determination of fungal biomass. The resultant culture filtrates were extracted twice with ethyl acetate and concentrated to get and final concentration of 1 ml in methanol and employed for RP-HPLC analysis for detection of DON and NIV production. Results: Finger millets flour medium induced the highest amount of mycelial growth, DON and NIV production by F. aethiopicum. However, F. culmorum achieved highest amount of hyphal growth, DON and NIV production under the influence of yeast extract sucrose [YES] medium. Maize flour medium, rice flour medium and sorghum flour medium was next preffered substrates. Optimum pH of 5.5-6.5 and temperature of 20-35°C for growth, DON and NIV production was observed. Both the species of Fusarium failed to grow and produce toxins at pH 2.5-3.5 and temperature of 40°C. Yeast extract was most favorable for maximum DON and NIV production, which increased with an increase in its concentration. On the other hand, malt extract and beef extract induced good growth and mycotoxin production at comparatively higher concentration in both the species of Fusarium under study. Conclusion: Comparatively food based media were the better substrates than synthetic media for both growth and DOIN and NIV production by two species of Fusarium under investigation. A positive correlation coefficient [r] on growth [0.458], DON [0.744] and NIV [0.882] was recorded among the media and both the species of Fusarium.

Maximum Lasparaginase production was recorded in the glucose medium supplemented with 0.5% L-asparagine monohydrate on 8th day of incubation. Czapek-dox medium was the next proffered medium for both biomass and L-asparaginase production by the fungi under investigation. Among different pH tried, pH 7.0 was optimum for L-asparaginase production, while enzyme production was marginal in medium with 6.0-8.0. Temperature of 45°C and 50°C were optimum for T. terrestris for growth of M. cinnamomea and S. thermophilum respectively. Maximum Lasparaginase activity of all three fungi was recorded at 45°C with varying extent was recorded. Analysis of variance of the data revealed significant differences (p-0.05) among the different culture media, pH and temperature on the production of L-asparaginase. A significant and positive correlation coefficient (R) was also observed between the growth and L-asparaginase activity of T. terrestris (0.570), M. cinnamomea (0.947) and S. thermophilum (0.948). Conclusion the culture medium and factors like pH, incubation temperature and incubation period play an important role in the L-asparaginase production by all the three thermophilic caprophilous fungi.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1.04</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
