Addition of 1 mM L‐threonine to the growth medium of Fomes annosus inhibited its glyoxylate deliydrogenase activity and the synthesis of oxalic acid. Malate synthetase was synthesized de novo in the presence of L‐threonine. Lignosulfonate completely blocked the effect of the amino acid in both glucose or cellobiose‐containing medium.
