This study was carried out to identity the effects of antifungal bacteria isolated from the soil grown kiwi fruit plants on the growth inhibition of Botrytis cinerea causing gray mold in kiwi fruit plants in the southern districts of Jeonnam. Two hundred and fifty antagonistic microorganisms were isolated and examined into the antifungal activity against Botrytis cinerea. We screened and isolated four bacterial strains which strongly inhibited Botrytis cinerea from the soil grown kiwi fruit plants. And the best antifungal bacterial strain which called CHO 163 was finally selected. Antagonistic microorganism CHO 163 was identified to be the genus Bacillus sp. based on the morphological and biochemical characterization. Bacillus sp. CHO 163 showed 86.9% of antifungal activity against Botrytis cinerea. By the bacterialization of culture broth and heated filtrates of culture broth, Bacillus sp. CHO 163 showed almost all of antagonistic activity against Botrytis cinerea. And we also confirmed that in vitro the treatment of Bacillus sp. CHO 163 cultured by SD+B+P broth efficiently controled the growth of Botrytis cinerea causing gray mold in kiwi fruit plants.
