<P>The highest lycopene production in mated cultures of Blakeslea trispora was 578??mg/l by adding 42??mg geraniol/l to the medium after 48??h of growth. The control gave 317??mg/l. Adding isopentenyl alcohol at 40??mg/l, mevalonic acid at 17.5??mg/l or dimethyl allyl alcohol at 150??mg, each after 36??h growth, gave lycopene yields 62, 45 and 47%, respectively, higher than the control.</P>
