Abstract

Club root caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae is found in crucifers. Among the over hundreds of Streptomyces isolated from soil in Korea. One strain showed prominent activity against P. brassicae. The strain was identified based on 16S rDNA sequencing and the morphology by a method of scanning electron microscopy. An active compound in the fermented broth obtained from the strain was separated. Even though the complete assignments of the compound remain for future work, the results regarding the isolation and characterization of the strain with a certain activity against P. brassicae are shown in this paper.
