Popis: Strain improvement of a low fructosyltransferase-producing Aureobasidium pullulans NAC8 (Accession No. KX023301) was carried out using chemical mutagens such as ethidium bromide and ethyl methane sulfonate. The wild-type and mutant strain were distinguished using Random amplified polymorphic DNA PCR and DNA fingerprinting analysis. Plackett-Burman and Box Behnken design were statistical tools used to determine important media parameters and optimization, respectively. Phenotypically and genetically, the new improved strain was different from the wild-type. The most important media parameters from PDB influencing fructosyltransferase production were ammonium chloride, sucrose and yeast extract at p
