Popis: Five free fatty acids (FFA): C16:0, C18:0, C18:1, C18:2 and C18:3 were introduced into culture media in order to investigate differential development of pathogenic fungus Conidiobolus coronatus as a function of FFA concentration. All tested FFA showed fungistatic action inhibiting hyphae growth and sporulation. Fungal colonies grown in the presence of FFA showed decreased virulence.
