Abstract

Growth mediums are preparations that contain the nutritional sources necessary for the growth and multiplication of organisms and must meet the minimum requirements for in vitro cultivation. The objective of this study was to compare different growth mediums with tubers as the main source of nutrients for the growth of Fusarium sp. The tubers were purchased at a popular market and used individually to prepare the culture medium. The diameter of the colonies was assessed daily on the reverse side of the plates by measuring the perpendicular diameters in two directions. The experimental design was entirely randomized, with 4 treatments and 6 replicates. The data obtained was submitted to analysis of variance (ANOVA) and the means were compared using the Tukey test at a 5% probability level. Sporulation occurred in all mediums. The sweet potato medium promoted the highest speed of mycelial growth.
