What is Ampelomyces quisqualis?

Ampelomyces quisqualis is a beneficial fungus known for its ability to parasitize powdery mildew fungi. Instead of directly attacking the crop plant, it colonizes susceptible powdery mildew structures and interferes with their development and reproduction.

This mycoparasitic mode of action makes Ampelomyces quisqualis particularly relevant to biological disease-management and Integrated Pest Management/Integrated Disease Management programs.
