Abstract

We have examined a number of antifungal agents which might prove useful in plant tissue culture. We find that carbendazim, fenbendazole and imazalil can be used relatively safely and also have a broad spectrum of antifungal activity. Fungicides in clinical use do not prove to be as effective.
