To investigate the antibiotic constituents of Korean basidiomycetes the carpophores of the wood-rotting basidiomycetes were collected from several locations of Korea, and from them 17 mycelial strains were isolated on potato-dextrose-agar plates supplemented with tetracycline ($20\;{\mu}g/m{\ell}$. The isolated strains were shake-cultured in glucosepeptone-yeast extract medium and then the antibacterial activities of the culture filtrates were assessed by disc-plate method. Among them, 12 strains (70.6%) were active, and basidiomycete strain LMCB-109 (Daedalea quercina) and LMCB-116 showed potent activities against all the six bacterial target organisms including Serratia marcescens.
