| Abstract: | Summary Volatile fungal metabolites excluded from various leaf-inhabiting microfungi were tested for their mycostatic activity against the growth ofPestalotiopsis funerea Desm., a leaf spot pathogen ofEucalyptus globulus Labill. Findings reveal thatTrichoderma viride andTrichothecium roseum exhibited significant antagonistic action, however,Cladosporium herbarum, Nigrospora sphaerica andPapulaspora sp. showed a stimulating effect. A morphophysiological effect was also observed.Acknowledgments.
