Summary The effect of substrate (buckwheat seeds) pretreatment on the growth and the sporulation behaviour of Penicillium roqueforti is presented. When a saccharifying enzyme (α-amylase) is added to a medium which exhibits a low water content (0.46 g water/g initial dry matter, IDM), a more rapid internal colonization of the seeds occurs, but the final spore production does not increase and remains close to 8.109 spores/g dry matter (DM) at 500 h. No carbon source limitation is then observed. The addition of casein hydrolysate to this medium gives rise to a great increase of the sporulation, since 14.5 109 spores/g DM are obtained after 600 h. This result is attained by a better spore yield from the mycelium, the substrate colonization being unchanged. High water content (0.60 g water/g IDM) of buckwheat seeds induces a shorter cultivation time along with a higher biomass production. However, the spore content of the medium remains close to the low water content one, but 60% total spores are external against 30% to 35% in the other media.
