Solution(By Examveda Team)

pH for culturing fungi is 6 - 6.5.
pH impacts the composition of microbes and nutrient availability in soil. Organic sources of the elements are dependent on the activity of bacteria and fungi to release them in the soil.
Fungi may be cultured on a variety of media types. These media can be either solid or liquid depending on the experiment to be performed. Most fungi grow in medium containing a high carbohydrate source, nitrogen source, a pH of 6 - 6.5, and a temperature range from 15° - 37°C.
