The antibiotic activity against microorganisms Bacillus subtilis, Candida pseudotropicalis, Escherichia coli and Sarcina lutea was tested in 97 species of mycelial cultures (110 strains) from saprotrophic Basidiomycotina, using the diffusion plate method. Activity was found in 55.4% of strains. The study also included rare species previously not tested. Antibiotic activity is evaluated as a biochemical taxonomic feature.
