Abstract

The suitabllity 01 disc fermenter for efficient production of conidiospores by Trichoderma harzianum is limited to a workmg capacity of 0.6 1 agar medium due to large decrease in spore production per cm* of the culture surface area with further increase m Ihc capacity. In contrast, Zymoris, a large scale solid state fermenter designed at ORSTOM, France and USC of men sohd support for absorbing nutrients offer many advantages for production of conidmsporcs m quantity sufflclem enough to inoculate pilot and larger fermenters. Five times higher producuon of comdiosporcs in Zymotis, as compared to the agar methum in flask, constitutes a success in the development of large scale inoculum.
