Abstract

Biofungicides or microbiological fungicides are commercialized biological fungicides based on various microorganisms (fungi, pseudofungi and bacteria), which have an antagonistic effect on phytopathogenic fungi and pseudofungi. Biofungicides based on antagonistic species of fungi and pseudofungi are called mycofungicides and biofungicides based on antagonistic species of bacteria are called bacteriofungicides. Their antagonistic action can be manifested in the form of various interactions with phytopathogenic fungi and pseudofungi such as parasitism (hyperparasitism), antibiosis, competition, induced resistance etc. The most commonly used antagonistic species of bacteria for the production of commercialized bacteriofungicides are from the genera Bacillus, Pseudomonas and Streptomyces, and the most commonly used antagonistic species of fungi or pseudofungi for the production of commercialized mycofungicides are from the genera Ampelomyces, Coniothyrium, Gliocladium, Chaetomium, Pythium and Trichoderma. Currently, only four biofungicides have been registered in Croatia, namely three bacteriofungicides and one mycofungicide. Bacteriofungicides are Serenade ASO (based on Bacillus amyloliquefaciens), Sonata (based on Bacillus pumilus) and Proradix (based on Pseudomonas sp.). The only mycofungicide in Croatia is Vintec, based on the antagonist fungus Trichoderma atroviride.
