Aspergillus sp. growing in potato dextrose agar Potato dextrose agar (BAM Media M127) and potato dextrose broth are common microbiological growth media made from potato infusion and dextrose. Potato dextrose agar (abbreviated "PDA") is the most widely used medium for growing fungi and bacteria. PDA has the capability to culture various bacteria and fungi found in the soil. This agar can be ...
The spore of phytophthora sojae is difficult to culture in potato dextrose agar; it is generally cultured by V8 medium and lima bean agar at home and abroad. V8 medium can cultivate, separate, reproduce and conserve many kinds spore of phytophthora sojae, but it is not suitable for cultivating the pathogen of potato late blight.
An agar plate – an example of a bacterial growth medium*: Specifically, it is a streak plate; the orange lines and dots are formed by bacterial colonies.. A growth medium or culture medium is a solid, liquid, or semi-solid designed to support the growth of a population of microorganisms or cells via the process of cell proliferation [1] or small plants like the moss Physcomitrella patens.

Potato dextrose agar is used to culture certain types of fungi. Malt extract agar has a high content of peptone and is acidic. It is essentially used in the isolation of fungal microorganisms. MMN (Modified Melin-Norkrans) medium and BAF medium are used for ectomycorrhizal fungi. Chromogenic agars can distinguish some major types of fungal ...
Czapek medium, also called Czapek's agar (CZA) [1] [2] or Czapek-Dox medium, is a growth medium for propagating fungi and other organisms in a laboratory. It was named after its inventors, Czech botanist Friedrich Johann Franz Czapek (May 16, 1868 – July 31, 1921) and American chemist Arthur Wayland Dox (September 19, 1882 – 1954).
Nutrient agar is a general-purpose solid medium supporting growth of a wide range of non-fastidious organisms. It typically contains ( mass/volume ): [ 1 ] 0.5% peptone – this provides organic nitrogen
YEPD or yeast extract peptone dextrose, also often abbreviated as YPD, is a complete medium for yeast growth. It contains yeast extract , peptone , double-distilled water , and glucose (dextrose). [ 1 ]
Middlebrook 7H9 broth supports the growth of mycobacterial species when supplemented with nutrients such as glycerol, oleic acid, albumin, and dextrose, except for Mycobacterium bovis, which is inhibited by glycerol. Cultures should be read within 5–7 days after inoculation and once a week thereafter for up to 8 weeks.
