ABSTRACT
The ability of soil and endophytic strains of P. funiculosum to accumulate biomass under cultivation conditions in media containing carbon sources from mono- to polysaccharides has been studied. It has been shown that the most favorable carbon sources for the studied strains were maltose, sucrose, xylose, fructose, pectin, less assimilated lactose, arabinose, and especially microcrystalline cellulose. Significant differences in the level of biomass accumulation between soil and endophytic strains of this species in most cases were not established.
