To select the sntagonistic bacteria against B. cinerea, isolates were screened from the eggplant leaves and rhizosphere soils in the eggplnat fields in the greenhouse. W1 and P99 isolates were selected by the inhibition of mycelial growth of B. cinerea E12 in vitro test. These isolates, W1 and P99, were identified as Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas putida, respectively, by the Bergeys manual and API systems, For the formulation of the antagonistic bacteria, the media for the mass production were prepared with biji(soybean curd residues) or soybean flour. B. subtilis W1 or P. putida P99 was mass cultured in biji broth or soybean flour extrect broth and then soybean flour, corn starch flour, rice glutinous flour and biji flour as high molecular substrates were added. These mixtures were dried, grinded and formulated as brofungicides of wettable powder type. The assess the control effect of biofungicides against the infection of B. cinerea, six types of formulations were assayed at the pot culturing with eggplant in the greenhouse. According to the results, there were no significant differences among the formulation methods. However, P99S or PppB formulated with P. putida P99 showed the highest control values as 90.4% and 96.1%, respectively. Then. BSB or BSD formulated whit B. subtilis W1 were 80.8% and 83.0%, respectively. There afforementioned values were more effective than that of chemical fungicide. Ipro W.P which showed as 72.6%.
