Activity of Fungistatic Compounds from Soil

摘要: Propagules of many fungi do not germinate in soil unless provided with nutrients. According to the nutrient deprivation hypothesis, microflora prevent germination by acting as a sink for nutrients that leak from fungal propagules. Alternatively, may produce inhibitors. In this study, fungistatic activity diffused into agarose blocks and was quantified percentage Cochliobolus victoriae conidia incubated on blocks. The were kept sterile separate placement either polycarbonate membranes 0.2-μm pores (diffusion assay) or glass (volatile (...)
