Yeast-produced bioactive agents can cause not only inhibition, but growth stimulation. a Inhibition - lawn: Kodamae ohmeri (11–466), test-strain: Metschnikowia andauensis (11–1120) (C. tropicalis lawn gave similar result). (White arrows show the clear inhibitory zone, where cells of the lawn could not divide. * indicates the growing cells of the lawn farther from the test-strain). b Growth stimulation - lawn: Candida diversa (11–470), test-strain: Candida tropicalis (11–476). ** indicates the growth stimulation. c Co-occurence of inhibitory- and stimulation zones-lawn: Saccharomycopsis crataegensis (11–463), test-strain: Metschnikowia andauensis (11–1120). EMMA media (pH 6.5) were incubated at room temperature and photographed after 5 days
