Antibiotic activity of several phytopathogenic fungi
Twenty one strains of phytopathogenic fungi were screened for antibiotic activity by themicrodilution method. The highest bacteriostatic activity was recorded in Curvularia lunata,Phytophthora capsici, P. drechsleri, Gliocladium spp., Neocosmospora vasinfecta, Helminthosporiumspp., Fusarium lateritu...

| Summary: | Twenty one strains of phytopathogenic fungi were screened for antibiotic activity by themicrodilution method. The highest bacteriostatic activity was recorded in Curvularia lunata,Phytophthora capsici, P. drechsleri, Gliocladium spp., Neocosmospora vasinfecta, Helminthosporiumspp., Fusarium lateritum, and Rhizopus spp. These strains showed activity against at least one of thefollowing bacteria of medical interest: Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonasaeruginosa. Likewise, against some phytopathogenic bacteria: Pectobacterium carotovorum subsp.carotovorum, Agrobacterium tumefaciens and Xanthomonas vesicatoria. Activities were recorded inthe following concentrations of aqueous extracts: 62.5 µl/ml and 250 µl/ml. Curvularia lunata,Fusarium lateritium and Rhizopus spp. also showed bactericidal activity. |
