The aim of the present study was to describe cultural characteristics of two isolates of the zygomycete Mortierella alpina Peyronel, to study the behaviour of these isolates in dual cultures with phytopathogenic fungi, and to investigate mechanisms possibly contributing to the in vitro antagonistic properties of M. alpina. Isolates BBA 69688 and 29 showed some growth at 5 °C, had a maximum growth rate around 25-30 °C and did not grow at 37 °C. On the nutrient rich media malt extract agar (MEA) and potato dextrose agar (PDA), the isolates produced a dense mycelium, but hyphal growth was most rapid on V8-agar and Czapek-agar (CZA). Sporulation was only observed on soil extract agar (SEA) and the minimal medium SNA. In dual cultures on MEA, both isolates inhibited the growth of various phytopathogenic fungi and lyzed hyphal tips. Lysis of hyphal tips was not observed on CZA. On MEA, both isolates released endo-cellulase, endo-chitinase, β-1,3-glucanase and protease activity into the medium. These enzymes were also produced in shake cultures in malt extract broth (MEB) and potato dextrose broth (PDB). Of the enzyme activities assayed, protease activity appeared to be highest, both on solid media and in shake cultures. On MEA plates, on which M. alpina isolate 69688 had been previously cultured on cellophane sheets, growth of P. ultimum, R. solani and F. culmorum was inhibited. However, growth of these fungi was also inhibited, and hyphal tips were lyzed, on pre-colonized MEA from which the enzymatic activity had been removed by heat treatment. The inhibitory activity of culture filtrate of isolate 29 was reduced following extraction with ethyl acetate. In conclusion, the in vitro antagonistic properties of M. alpina appear to be based on different mechanisms. Production of ethyl-acetate extractable and not extractable metabolites seem to be major factors, whereas the release of lytic enzymes is unlikely to play a role.
