ABSTRACT Using two forest soils, we previously constructed fosmid libraries containing 113,700 members in total. The were screened to select active antifungal clones using Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a target fungus. One clone from the Yuseong pine tree rhizosphere soil library, pEAF66, showed S. growth inhibition. Despite an intensive effort, chemicals not isolated. DNA sequence analysis and transposon mutagenesis of pEAF66 revealed 39 open reading frames (ORFs) indicated that eight ORFs,...
