    In vitro antagonism caused by some species of fungi on Rigidoporus lignosus
    (Rubber Research Institute. Agalawatte, 1996) Jayasuriya, K.E.; Deacon, J.W.; Fernando, T.H.P.S.
    Fungi potentially antagonistic to rigidoporus lignosus were isolated from a) by placing soil samples on agar plates previously colonized by R.lignosus, or on trichoderma selective agar and b) from basidiomycete fruit bodies in rubber plantations.Modes of action of potential antagonists against R. lignosus were evaluated by in vitro methods viz: production of volatile or non-volatile inhibitory compounds and ability to overgrow colonies of R. lignosus an agar. Some trichoderma spp. were strongly antagonistic to R. lignosus in most of the tests. T. longibrachiatum (isolate DZE10) completely inhibited R. lignosus an agar by producing volatile inhibitory metabolites. Trametes sp. producing volatile inhibitory metabolites. Trametes sp. (isolates ISO16 KIR8) antagonized R. lignosus on dual membered plates.
