Two antifungal bacteria were selected from forest soils during the screening of microorganisms antagonistic to Cylindrocarpon destructans, a cause of ginseng root rot. The antifungal bacteria were identified as Bacillus subtilis (I4) and B. amyloliquefaciens (yD16) based on physiological and cultural characteristics, the Biolog program, and 16S rRNA gene sequencing analyses. Antagonistic activity of both bacterial isolates to C. destructans increased with increasing temperature. More rapid starch hydrolytic activity of the bacteria was seen on starch agar at higher temperatures than at lower temperatures, and in the higher density inoculum treatment than in the lower density inoculum treatment. The bacterial isolates failed to colonize ginseng root the root tissues inoculated with the bacteria alone at an inoculum density of $1{\times}10^6$ cfu/ml, but succeeded in colonizing the root tissues co-inoculated with the bacteria and C. destructans. Scanning electron microscopy showed that the pathogen was damaged by the low-density inoculum treatment with the bacterial isolates as much as by the high-density inoculum treatment. Both bacterial isolates were more effective in reducing root rot when they were treated at a concentration of $1{\times}10^6$ cfu/ml than at $1{\times}10^8$ cfu/ml. Also, only the former treatment induced prominent wound periderm formation, related to structural defense against pathogen infection. The results suggest that the bacterial antagonists may have high potential as biocontrol agents against ginseng root rot at relatively low-inoculum concentrations.

Antibacterial and antifungal activities of liquid culture filtrate, water and ethanol extract (solid culture) of Stereum ostrea were evaluated against 5 bacteria and 3 plant pathogenic fungi. To determine the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC), we studied $5{\sim}300\;mg/ml$ concentrations against bacteria and fungi separately. The MIC was 10 mg/ml for Bacillus subtilis and 40 mg/ml for Colletotrichum gloeosporioides and Colletotrichum miyabeanus. Liquid culture filtrate was more effective against Gram positive than Gram negative bacteria, and Staphylococcus aureus was the most inhibited (20.3 mm) bacterium. Water and ethanol extracts were effective against both Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria, and water extract was better than ethanol extract. In water and ethanol extract, inhibition zones were 23.6 and 21.0 mm (S. aureus) and 26.3 and 22.3 mm (Pseudomonas aeruginosa), respectively. For plant pathogenic fungi, the highest and lowest percent inhibition of mycelial growth (PIMG) was found 82.8 and 14.4 against C. miyabeanus and Botrytis cinerea in liquid culture filtrate, respectively. In water extract, the PIMG was found to be the highest 85.2 and lowest 41.7 for C. miyabeanus and C. gloeosporioides, respectively. The inhibitory effect of ethanol extract was better against C. miyabeanus than C. gloeosporioides and B. cinerea. Among 3 samples, water extract was the best against tested pathogenic fungi. This study offers that the extracts isolated from S. ostrea contain potential compounds which inhibit the growth of both bacteria and fungi.

A pathogenic fungus causing balloon flower root rot (Platycodon grandiflorum) was isolated from naturally infected roots. The microbial characteristics of the isolated microorganism were similar to those of Rhizoctonia solani. About 500 bacterial species from field soils were screened for a biological agent against the above-mentioned putative pathogen, and several bacteria with the antifungal activity were isolated. Among them, the isolated JS2 was identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa. This strain showed a broad spectrum of antifungal activity potentially. When the antifungal substance was purified from a broth culture of JS2, it was identified as 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol (Phl).

A series of 6-(N-aylamono)-7-chloro-5, 8-quinolinedione derivatives was newly synthesized for the evaluation of antifugal activities. 5-Amino-8-hydroxy-quinoline (II) was treated with $KCLO_3$ in HCl to give 6,7-dichloro-5,8-quinolinediones (III). 6-(N-Arylamino)-7-chloro5,8-quinolinediones 1-13 were prepared by regioselective nucleophilic substitution of III with arylamines. In the presence of $CeCl_3$, the N-arylamono groups were introduced at the 6-position of 5,8-quinolinedione ring by the regioselective substitution. These derivatives 1-12 were tested for natifungal and also antibacterial activites, in vitro, against Canadida albicans, Aspergillus nier, Tricophyton mentagrophytes, Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coil. The MIC values were determined by the two-fold agar/steak dilution method. Newly obtained 6-(N-arylamino)-7-chloro5,8-quinolinedione derivatives showed potent antifungal and antibacterial activities. Among these derivatives, 1,3,5,7,8 and 9 showed more potent antifungal activities than fluconazole and griseofulvin. Also most of derivatives were found to be more active than ampicillin against gram-positive bacteria. 1 and 7 showed the very potent antifungal activities. 1 was the most efective in preventing the growth of Candida albicans, Aspergillus niger, Tricophyton mentagrophytes, Bacillus subtills and Staphylococcus aureus at MIC $1.6\;\mu{g/ml}$.

A Gram-positive, rod-shaped bacteria named DY5 was isolated from a peat sample collected from Daeam mountain in Korea. The culture filtrate of the bacterial isolate DY5 showed a broad spectrum of antifungal activity on various crop pathogenic fungi such as Trichoderma koningii, Fusarium oxysporum, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, Rhizoctonia solani AG-1(IA) For the identification of the DY5, morphological, biochemical, API 50 CHB test, analysis of fatty acid and molecular phylogenetic approaches were performed. The DY5 was found to be a member of the genus Paenibacillus on the basis of morphological and biochemical analysis. The 16S rRNA of DY5 showed high similarity(98%) with Paenibacillus polymyxa. On the basis of these results, the DY5 was identified as Paenibacillus polymyxa. Antifungal substance of the DY5 would be mild alkaline proteine molecule. The DY5 seems to have a great potential to be a biocontrol agent against various crop pathogens.

Phenyllactic acid (PLA) which is known as antimicrobial compound can be synthesized through the reduction of phenylpyruvic acid (PPA) by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) of lactic acid bacteria (LAB). LAB producing PLA was isolated from Korea Kimchi and identified to Lactobacillus plantarum SJ21 by 16 rRNA gene sequence analysis. Cell-free supernatant (CFS) from L. plantarum SJ21 was assessed for both the capability to produce the antimicrobial compound PLA and the antifungal activity against four fungal pathogens (Rhizoctonia solani, Aspergillus oryzae, Botrytis cinerea, and Collectotricum aculatum). PLA concentration was investigated to be 3.23mM in CFS when L. plantarum SJ21 was grown in MRS broth containing 5mM PPA for 16 h. PLA production also could be promoted by the supplement of PPA and phenylalanine in MRS broth, but inhibited by the supplement of 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid and tyrosine as precursors. Antifungal activity demonstrated that all fungal pathogens were sensitive to 5% CFS (v/v) of L. plantarum SJ21 with average growth inhibitions ranging from 27.32% to 69.05% (p<0.005), in which R. solani was the most sensitive to 69.05% and followed by B. cinerea, C. aculatum, and A. oryzae. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for commercial PLA was also investigated to show the same trend in the range from $0.35mg\;mL^{-1}$ (2.11 mM) to $0.7mg\;mL^{-1}$ (4.21 mM) at pH 4.0. The inhibition ability of CFS against the pathogens was not affected by heating or protease treatment. However, pH modification in CFS to 6.5 caused an extreme reduction in their antifungal activity. These results may indicate that antifungal activities in CFS were caused by acidic compounds like PLA or organic acids rather than proteins or peptides molecules.

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) producing phenyllactic acid (PLA), which is known as antimicrobial compound, was isolated from button mushroom bed and the isolated LAB was identified to Lactobacillus casei by 16 rRNA gene sequence analysis. Cell-free supernatant (CFS) from L. casei was assessed for both the capability to produce the antimicrobial compound PLA and the antifungal activity against three fungal pathogens (Rhizoctonia solani, Botrytis cinerea, and Collectotricum aculatum). PLA concentration was investigated to be 3.23 mM in CFS when L. casei was grown in MRS broth containing 5 mM phenylpyruvic acid as precursor for 16 h. Antifungal activity demonstrated that all fungal pathogens were sensitive to 5% CFS (v/v) of L. casei with average growth inhibitions ranging from 34.58% to 65.15% (p < 0.005), in which R. solani was the most sensitive to 65.15% and followed by C. aculatum, and B. cinerea. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for commercial PLA was also investigated to show the same trend in the range of 0.35 mg mL-1 (2.11 mM) to 0.7 mg mL-1 (4.21 mM) at pH 4.0. The inhibition ability of CFS against the pathogens were not affected by the heating or protease treatment. However, pH modification in CFS to 6.5 resulted in an extreme reduction in their antifungal activity.
