Abstract: | Summary Interaction betweenFusarium vasinfectum andMacrophomina phaseoli was studied on solid and in liquid media at varying cultural conditions, in an attempt to explain the reduction in virulence of each fungus when the two pathogens were mixed together in the soil. Metabolites produced by each fungus in liquid media were suppressive to the growth of the other. Such suppression was influenced by the pH factor. Saltation ofFusarium was favoured by the presence ofMacrophomina metabolites.Dedicated to ProfessorTibor Benedek on the occasion of his 70th birthday. |
