Abstract
Green, blue, yellow, red and white light all support spore germination whereas vegetative growth occurs only in red, yellow or white light. This indicates a requirement of nonphotosynthetic light for spore germination and of photosynthetic light for growth and cell divisions. The green or blue light is neither inhibitory to vegetative growth nor to sporulation of red, yellow or white light grown filaments. The growth promoting effect of white light is greater than that of red or yellow light. Whereas spore germination is not affected by the intensity of white light, vegetative growth increases linearly with increase in white light intensity.
