Abstract excerpt

Sucrose consumption by the wild-type Neurospora crassa is quicker, with much more ethanol produced, in the ammonium medium than in nitrate as single N source. On low sugar concentration which is quickly nullified, little alcohol is produced and early conidiation can develop. The higher the initial sugar concentration, the higher is the alcoholigenic coefficient defined as the efficiency of alcoholic glycolysis...
