Prochloraz of fungicide was applied on Mycogone perniciosa causing wet bubble in cultivated mushroom, Agaricus bisporus. In vitro, Prochloraz was an excellent fungicide on two strains of Mycogone, tolerant and non-tolerant to Benomyl, respectively. At the low dosage, Prochloraz more inhibited mycelial growth of mushrooms than Benomyl. At the higher dosage, Benomyl more inhibited the mycelial growth than prochloraz. The higher yield of sporophore of the mushroom with low inferction rate was abtained from several trial of Prochloraz. Prochloroz was concluded to be effective fungicide on Mycogone perniciosa on Agaricus cultivation.

Benomyl has been used to control Mycogone perniciosa for several years, the reduced effect of Benomyl against Mycogone perniciosa has been reporteod here. These experiments were carried out to substitute Benomyl with other chemicals. The isolates of Mycogone perniciosa those Benomyl tolerant are proved to be sensitive to Vitathiram, Difolatan, Ambam and RH-2161. However, these chemicals brought undisirable effects on the cultivation. Basamid and Vapam are found not to be harmful to Agaricus bisporus' mycelial growth in casing soil, these chemicals were treated up to 100 ppm of concentration for 15days in advance of use. Although Mycogone perniciosa was tolerant to Benomyl, Basamid and Vapam were very effective and enabled it to produce higher levels of mushroom sporophores.

These experiments were conducted to learn the antibiosis of microfloral organisms in the casing soil to Mycogone perniciosa, and interactions between M. perniciosa and Agaricus bisporus. The results obtained were as follows: 1. In vitro tests, the development of M. perniciosa was suppressed from the unidentified microfloral organisms in the casing soil. All the infected sporophores of A. bisporus occurred within an area applied with spore suspension of M. perniciosa as spot treatment and no infected ones in the area around the spot treated under cropping conditions. 2. In vitro tests, although the antagonistic relationship between M. perniciosa and A. bisporus was somewhat different in varying the kind of media, A. bisporus ultimately overgrew the colony of M. perniciosa. When spore inoculation of M. perniciosa was applied on the surface of grain spawn of A. bisporus and the mid layer of casing soil under cropping conditions, no infected sporophores were produced, whereas the infected sporophores were only produced on casing soil inoculated on the surface of casing soil with spore suspension.

This study was conducted to select the promising antifungal microoganisms for biological control of wet bubble, Mycogone perniciosa. Ninty one isolates of fungi, 342 isolates of bacteria, and 556 actinomycetes were isolated from mushroom composts and soils, were subjected to primary screening test on agar medium base for their antimicrobial spectra. Among them, 12 bacteria and 71 actinomycetes were selected. Among the antibiotic producing microoganisms, 5 cultures were selected on the basis their antibiotic activities on casing soil with Benlate nontolerence M. perniciosa. Finally, AJ-117, AJ-136 and AK-139 were selected as microoganism with antifungal activity against two strains of M. perniciosa.

The new strains of Mycogone perniciosa which could attack cream colored mushroom were collected and tested to find out their characteristics in comparison with the original strains. The optimum temperature for mycelial growth was $25^{\circ}C$, showing no difference between strains, but optimum pH was 6.0 for the original strains and pH 7.0 for the new ones. New strains did not survive at $50^{\circ}C$ for 60 minutes while original ones 40 minutes. Delan and Hamai were effective for controlling new strains and the mushroom strains which have scales showed resistance to the new strains of Mt. perniciosa regardless of the mushroom colors.

1. The mycelial growth and sporulation of Mycogone perniciosa was compared on modified Czapek's media deficient in carbon source, nitrogen source, K,Mg, P or the heavy metal elements. The mycelial growth was significantly reduced in solution cultures lacking Mg, K or P and only a trace of growth occurred in solutions lacking carbon source or nitrogen source. Most sparse sporulation and smaller chlamydospores than on any of deficient agar media occurred on agar media dificient in carbon source or nitrogen source. 2. In both potato dextrose agar and malt extract solution, growth of the fungus was optimum at $25^{\circ}C$, and undetectable at $10^{\circ}C$ and $35^{\circ}C$. 3. Optimum pH for growth of this fungus was 7.0. 4. This fungus was killed in soil when exposed to $50^{\circ}C$ or higher for 20 minutes or more.

Two hundred forty seven isolates obtained from 21 white or cream-colored mushroom strain by single spore isolation or multiple spore germination were compared type of mycelial growth in vitro and yield trial in a preliminary test. As a result of these tests, four isolates were selected and compared the yields of sporophores with those of 505 and 702 which are leading strains in mushroom production. The newly selected isolate No. 705 showed high yield of mushroom with good quality as described below. 1. The isolate No. 705 produced 13% more mushrooms than those from the strain No. 703. Both produced creamy type of mushroom. The isolate No. 705 showed high blanching yield ratio and moderate resistance to Mycogone perniciosa. 2. For the isolate No. 705 obtained by multiple spore germinations, the optimum temperature of mycelial growth was $25^{\circ}C$, also the mycelial growth was better at $15^{\circ}C$ than others, optimum moisture content of the compost was 65% and optimum casing soil pH for mycelial growth was 7.8. 3. The new isolate No. 705 produced more number of sporophores and the ratio between parts of sporophores were intermediate of those from the strains No. 505 and No. 703.
