Effect of cadmium on the growth and lipid composition in three Aureobasidium pullulans
strains grown in the presence and absence of extracellular polysaccharides was studied …

The influence of cadmium, zinc and lead on fungal emulsifier synthesis and on the growth of
filamentous fungus Curvularia lunata has been studied. Tolerance to heavy metals …
