[IUFRO RG 7.02 FORPATH] Selective culture medium for isolating basidiomycetes

With the reduced availability of Benlate fungicide our lab is seeking other options for a selective medium for isolating basidiomycete cultures (unlike many other fungal groups, basidiomycetes are able to grow in the presence of the added active ingredient, benomyl). I would be pleased to hear what media other laboratories may be currently using to isolate basidiomycte fungi and what people may think of their effectiveness. ____________________________ Ian Hood Forest Protection Scientist Scion (NZ Forest Research Inst.
