Abstract
âºXeromyces bisporus grew optimally at 0.84 aw, 30 °C. âºChrysoporium xerophilum grew faster than C. inops, preferring â¥Â 30 °C and â¥Â 0.94 aw. âºMonascus eremophilus and C. inops grew slowly, max. 0.4 mm/day at 0.88 aw, 25 °C. âºX. bisporus was competitive against other xerophilic moulds at aw < 0.80. âºRapid growth is the main mechanism of competition among xerophiles at low aw.
