Six different Rhizobium strains were tested for their antagonistic activities against 10 isolates of fungi. Their abilities to inhibit the growth of fungal isolates varied tremendously. Rhizobium legurninosnrum biovar phaseoli 6‐3 showed the highest antagonistic activity which significantly reduced the mycelium dried weights of all the fungal isolates tested. This suggests that care should be taken when Rhizobium and fungal biocontrol agents are to be used together.
