Method of detecting compounds that control fungal diseases via effects on sporulation

The invention relates to a method for identifying chemical or biochemical agents capable of suppressing asexual reproduction in fungi. The method comprises identifying compounds that form a differential zone of development in the area surrounding the test compound on fungal agar plate cultures as co...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The invention relates to a method for identifying chemical or biochemical agents capable of suppressing asexual reproduction in fungi. The method comprises identifying compounds that form a differential zone of development in the area surrounding the test compound on fungal agar plate cultures as compared to normal growth in the surrounding region. Active anti-sporulation compounds are identified based upon the observed suppression of spore formation in the absence of fungal mycelium vegetative growth inhibition. The invention also provides agricultural fungicide and antimycotic compositions, and methods of applying such compositions to control fungal diseases and /or conditions.
