title: Formation of beauvericin by selected strains of Beauveria bassiana.
abstract: Various strains of Beauveria bassiana were cultivated in submerged cultures and examined for their abilities to produce beauvericin, cyclodepsipeptide antibiotic displaying antibacterial and insecticidal properties. It has been found that among twenty four strains of Beauveria bassiana only three produced beauvericin. Apparently, the striking differences among tested strains concerning several secondary product formations have been observed.
