METHOD FOR PRODUCING FILAMENTOUS FUNGUS SPORES AND METHOD FOR PREVENTING PLANT DISEASE

摘要

It is intended to provide a method for efficiently producing filamentous fungus spores by liquid culture, which are generally difficult to be formed by liquid culture, and a technique for preventing a plant disease using the spores obtained by the method. By culturing a filamentous fungus using a liquid medium containing corn steep liquor or peptone derived from soybean as an organic component for supplying a carbon source and a nitrogen source, and dipotassium hydrogen phosphate, magnesium sulfate, and calcium chloride as inorganic components, a sufficient amount of spores for practical application are formed. The filamentous fungus spores obtained in this way are recovered and brought into contact with a plant, whereby a plant disease is effectively prevented.
