Abstract: A basidiocarp-stimulating substance(s) (BSS) was present in sterile supernatant fluids from cultures of Penicillium oxalicum. BSS resisted autoclaving and readily passed through dialysis tubing. Yield of BSS was highest when P. oxalicum was cultured in potato dextrose broth (PDB) or Emerson’s YpSs medium in still culture for 1 week under laboratory conditions. P. oxalicum grown in PDB produced BSS independently of light conditions, but M. citricolor produced basidiocarps in response to BSS (or in co-culture with P. oxalicum) only when grown in alternating periods of light and dark. M. citricolor produced basidiocarps only when it was cultured on natural or semi-synthetic media.
