Duddingtonia flagrans is a microfungus used for the biological control of gastrointestinal nematodes in ruminants, which negatively impacts livestock production. This study aimed to evaluate chlamydospore production in different culture media and assess its impact on nematode predatory capacity. D. flagrans was cultured in enriched Glucose Sabouraud Agar (GSA-E) with the addition of meso-inositol (MI) and mannitol (M) at different concentrations: GSA-E+MI1.1%+M2%, GSA-E+MI1.1%+M5%, GSA-E+MI2%+M2%, GSA-E+MI2%M5% and GSA only (control). Twelve plates per concentration were incubated for 3, 4, and 5 weeks, respectively, at 27±0.5°C and 70±5% RH. Chlamydospores were quantified under optical microscope after mycelium homogenization. Nematophagous activity was assessed in faecal cultures with faeces from naturally parasitised sheep, incubated for 15 days at 24ºC. Infective larvae (L3) were recovered by baermannisation, quantified, and their reduction was calculated. Data were expressed as mean ±SEM. Normality was evaluated using the Shapiro-Wilk test. Group comparisons were performed using One-Way ANOVA and Dunnett’s tests or Kruskal-Wallis and Dunn’s tests. At 3, 4, and 5 weeks, respectively, the values were: GSA: 8.4×10⁶ (±1.1×10⁶), 8.2×10⁶ (±1.4×10⁶), 8.9×10⁶ (±1.2×10⁶); GSA-E+MI1.1%+M2%: 2.9×10⁷ (±4.8×106), 3.5×10⁷ (±3.4×106), 2.6×10⁷ (±4.3×106); GSA-E+MI1.1%+M5%: 3.2×10⁷ (±3.6×106), 8.7×10⁶ (±3.0×10⁶), 2.6×10⁷ (±6.6×106); GSA-E+MI2%+M2%: 8.9×10⁶ (±3.6×10⁶), 5.4×10⁶ (±1.6×10⁶), 1.7×10⁷ (±5.2×106); GSA-E+MI2%+M5%: 1.7×10⁷ (±5.9×106), 4.1×10⁷ (±8.6×106), 6.9×10⁷ (±1.3×10⁷). The GSA-E+MI2%+M5% medium optimised chlamydospore production at 5 weeks. The numbers of L3 recovered from MI- and M-enriched media were 74-99.7% (p<0.05) lower than in the control group. Supplementation with MI and M enhances chlamydospore production of D. flagrans without compromising its predatory capacity, thus optimising its production to use it in biological control against nematodes.
