[Dependence of the fatty acid composition of the lipids in fungi of the genus Penicillium on their natural habitat conditions].
The fatty acid composition of lipids was studied in Penicillium fungi growing in different habitats. Saturated fatty acids were represented by lauric, margaric, stearic and palmitic acids (the latter prevailed-- 18%-26%). Unsaturated monoene fatty acids were represented by acids from C16:1 to C18:1, diene and triene fatty acids by linoleic and linolenic acids. The predominance of linoleic acid was not found in all cultures of the genus. Changes in the fatty acid composition of lipids may be attributed to different ecological habitats of the Penicillium genus species.
