Abstract


The effect of seed pickling without pesticides recommended by the Research Institute of Vegetable Crops in Skierniewice in the method of intensive environment-friendly cultivation on the growth and patulin biosynthesis of patulinogenous microfungus Penicillim expansum, was investigated. A complete inhibition of patulin biosynthesis at 6% and no growth at 8% concentration of the dressing in in vitro conditions was revealed.
