Susceptibility of fungi to new bacterial isolates
Loreta LEVINSKAITĖ, Vytautas MELVYDAS

Susceptibility of 40 fungal strains from the genera Aspergillus, Penicillium, Gliocladium, Paecilomyces, Scopulariopsis, Trichoderma, Ulocladium and others to the bacterial isolates T1x, T2x, T3x, Ux and Ux308 was tested. The killer activity of the bacteria was evaluated as clear fungicidal zones formed by bacteria on fungal lawns. All the bacteria exerted killer activity against the fungi. Although the individual reaction of fungi varied, bacteria Ux and Ux308 showed a high fungicidal activity on most of Penicillium, Aspergillus, Gliocladium and other fungi. Some fungi (Eupenicillium sp., Penicillium brevicompactum, etc.) were more susceptible to Tx-type bacteria. A conspicuous individual susceptibility of some fungi to particular bacterial isolates was noted. The high and wide-range fungicidal activity of the bacteria tested can be promising in developing measures against harmful fungi.
