We have investigated cultural circumstance and given condition of king oyster mushroom(Pleurotus eryngii) growing farmer. We collected many pathogens from King oyster mushroom growing farmer and identified with chemicobiological test and microscope. Most of investigated farmers neglected their's growing room cleaning and washing, after harvesting At pin-heading induction time, humidity degree in growing room was kept of high level and Air ventilation volume was so little that fruit-body formation ratio was low. The collected pathogens were twenty eight strains and identified with Pseudomonas sp., Trichoderma sp. mostly. During the spawn running time and pin-heading induction time, contamination by Trichoderma sp. occurred mostly, but during the fruit-body growing time, contamination by Pseudomonas sp., Erwinia sp. etc, occurred.

Antagonistic microorganisms from rhizosphere soil were isolated, identified, and applied successfully as the biocontrol agents of damping-off caused by Rhizoctonia spp. Rhizosphere antagonists isolated from rhizosphere soil were identified as Trichoderma viride, T. harzianum, T. hamatum, T. polysporum, Gliocladium sp., Pseudomonas fluorescence, P. stutzeri, P. cepacia, Enterobacter sp., Serratia sp. and Erwinia herbicola. Of these, the most promising ones in vitro were T. virdie, T. harzianum, Gliocladium sp., Serratia sp., P. stutzeri, and P. cepacia. These above six antagonists were efficient in reducing disease incidence to $40{\sim}70%$ when the reselected rhizosphere antagonists preparations were applied to the soil at $10^6$ propagules per gram. Among six antagonists, T. viride was the most promising biocontrol agents against R. solani isolates in soil. The suppressive effect was more evident in steam-sterilized soil than in non-sterilized field soil.

An antagonistic bacterial isolate, that inhibits the growth of plant pathogens, was selected and identified from 5,000 isolates screened from the rhizosphere of various crop plants. An isolate Bacillus sp. N32, tested against Colletotrichum gloeosporioides causing anthracnose disease in hot pepper, produced both a heat resistant antifungal protein and a heat sensitive antifungal protein. The heat resistant protein was partially purified by Ammonium sulfate fractionation and gel filtration chromatography. The bioautography showed that the proteins possessed high antifungal activity. The biosynthetic gene cluster responsible for the heat resistant antifungal protein was cloned from cosmid library using DNA probe obtained from PCR product with the primers targeting the conserved nucleotide sequence of the synthetic genes reported earlier, Most of the clones obtained showed higher homology to fengycin antibiotic synthetic gene family reported earlier. On the other hand, the heat sensitive protein was isolated from SDS-PAGE and electroblotting to determine the N-terminal amino acid sequences. The heat sensitive antifungal protein gene was cloned from the ${\lambda}-ZAP$ libraries using a DNA probe based on the N-terminal amino acid sequences of the heat sensitive protein. We are contemplating to clone and sequence the whole gene cluster encoding the heat sensitive protein for further analysis.
