Predactious fungi Dactylaria pyriformis and Dactylaria thaumasia: production of attractants and nematicides.
Dactylaria pyriformis Juniper and Dactylaria thaumasia Drechsler are predacious fung forming three-edimensional sticky reticula in which nematodes are captured. It was shown by methods developed in our laboratory that in submerged cultivations both of these fungi produce substances attracting nematodes and compounds having nematicidal activity.
