Abstract

Recently, new fungi symbiosis were detected in association with highpopulation levels of P. cylindrus in portuguese cork oak stands. Thetoxicity of these fungi was assessed by a bioassay method, with a densesuspension of Cladosporium cucumerinum ELL. et Art, however onlyNodulisporium sp. has shown the presence of a biocidal compound.
