The antagonistic activity of 25 saprobe fungi from semiarid areas of Northeast Brazil was evaluated against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) de Bary (Helotiales: Sclerotiniaceae). Four fungi [Myrothecium sp. Tode (Hypocreales: Stachybotryaceae) isolate 2, Volutella minima Höhn. (Hypocreales: Nectriaceae), Phialomyces macrosporus P.C. Misra & P.H.B. Talbot (Pezizomycotina) and Dictyosporium tetraseriale Goh, Yanna & K.D. Hyde (Pleosporales: Dictyosporiaceae)] were selected and further tested their ability to inhibit mycelial growth, sclerotia formation and ascospore germination of S. sclerotiorum and to control white mold on soybean plants. V. minima and P. macrosporus filtrates at 50% effectively suppressed mycelial growth and Myrothecium sp. isolate 2 completely suppressed sclerotia formation and inhibited ascospore germination by over 95%, the same result as commercial fungicide fluazinam. Soybean plants pre-treated with Myrothecium sp. isolate 2, P. macrosporus, and V. minima and inoculated with S. sclerotiorum showed a reduction of 55.8%, 79.7%, and 83.2% of area under disease progress curve (AUDPC) of white mold, respectively, in relation to water. Collectively, these results underline the antagonistic activity of V. minima, P. macrosporus, and Myrothecium sp. isolate 2 against S. sclerotiorum and their potential as biocontrol agents of soybean white mold.Downloads
