Abstract

The lipid accumulation, fatty acid composition and γ‐linolenic acid (GLA) production by 28 strains belonging to Mucorales were investigated. The lipid content varied from 5 to 30% on dry biomass and the percentage of γ‐linolenic acid in total intracellular lipid was in a range from 2.5 to 15.4% (w/w). The best yield of γ‐linolenic acid (expressed as mg GLA per 1 g biomass) was found for Mucor mucedo CCF – 1384 (28.4) and Cunninghamella echinulata CCF – 103 (25.1).
