Antifungal Activity of Streptomyces sp. Against Puccinia recondita Causing Wheat Leaf Rust

  • Published : 2004.04.01

Abstract

To discover a potent strain against wheat leaf rust, soil samples collected from Ilgamho, Seoul, Korea were tested in vivo and a strain belonging to Streptomyces sp. was found to show good antifungal activity when fermented in a broth. The identification of the strain was carried out based on 16S rDNA analysis, and the active compound was separated from the fermented broth. Even though its structure was not determined completely, the authors report the results obtained so far indicate that the fermented broth of the strain showed activity against wheat leaf rust. Therefore, we propose that this may be a potential novel strain showing antifangal activity against Puccinia recondita.
