Lipid formation and gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) production by 48 species of Mucorales fungi grown on sunflower oil (which consists of 70% linoleic acid; LA) were studied. The strains accumulated 42.7-65.8% lipid in biomass (7.66-13.39 g l(-1)). Eight cultures produced more than 200 mg GLA l(-1). Highest GLA yields exhibited Mucor mucedo CCF-1384 and Cunninghamella echinulata CCF-103 (379 and 373 mg l(-1), respectively). Mortierella alpina CCF-185 synthesized 465 mg l(-1) arachidonic acid. While the decrease of LA utilization index (ratio of LA content of cell lipid/LA content of oil source) was accompanied with growth of delipidized biomass and with reduction of lipid accumulation within the cells, high lipid yield was as a consequence of the direct oil source incorporation into intracellular lipid.
