The morphological effects of an antifungal activity produced by Lactobacillus plantarum 16, a malt-production steep water isolate, on two food-associated fungi were examined microscopically. Spore germination was completely inhibited in Aspergillus fumigatus and Rhizopus stolonifer upon treatment with concentrated cell-free supernatant (cCFS) of strain 16. Furthermore, addition of antifungal cCFS to germ tubes and hyphae halted further development compared to untreated controls. Transcriptome an ...[more]
