Lind., one of the most important pathogenic fungi which affect the black currantecological crops cultivated for alimentary supplements and phytotherapeutics drugs production. The present studybrings the new data related to the possibility of „in vitro” vegetative growth inhibition of fungus mycelium usingsaprophytic fungi species. The species of fungi used for experimental trials was Trichoderma viride, Trichotheciumroseum Link, Epicoccum nigrum Link. and Gliocladium roseum Bainier. The fungus was growth on several culturemedia for comparative testing and establishment of the most efficient medium for vegetative growth of the fungi. In thestudy we also follow the comparative approach doing by biometric measurements of the colonies in which work variantthe pathogenic fungi had the high rate of growing. After the testing was made the PDA medium was selected forexperimentation of inhibitory effect of the saprophytes. The method used for trials was the double cultures technique onthe medium of agar which consists in inoculation of one media fragment of mycelium carrier separated from the agarmedium of saprophytic fungi on some distance from pathogenic fungi. The study carried out had allowed the highlightof the fact that in all experimental variant used the saprophytic fungi had inhibits the Mycosphaerella grossulariaepathogen growing. The detailed analysis of the results we could reveal that the most inhibitory effect was done by T.viride followed by T. roseum and E.nigrum.Key words: blackcurrant crop, inhibitory effect, Mycosphaerella grossulariae, saprophytic fungi.INTRODUCTION429The biological resources and the sustainableexploit potential of aromatic and medicinalplants from our country are immense and representan important sustainable component of Romanianagriculture (Manole, 2008). Romaniahas in his flora up to 3,600 species of plantsand more than 1.000 are considered medicinalplants, spontaneous and cultivated (Alexan etal, 1988; Ardelean and Mohan, 2008; Bojor,2003; Pun, 1995). In the classification ofpharmacological industry are under differentforms included – tea, medicinal and cosmeticsproducts – almost 160 medicinal and aromaticspecies, among 110 are spontaneous collectedand up 50 species are cultivated (Pun, 1995).One of the species introduced in the croppingsystem, the blackcurrant crop (Ribes nigrum L.)are extremely economic important. The extensionof ecological crops of this species areimposed the deeply acknowledgement of thepathogens in the purpose of finding rapidly andefficiently ways to biological control.Mycosphaerella grossulariae (Auers.) Lind. isone of the most important pathogenic fungiwhich affect the black currant ecological cropscultivated for alimentary supplements and phytotherapeuticsdrugs production. In plantationof blackcurrant cultivated as medicinal plant inthe south of Romania, Mycosphaerella grossulariaeproduces spots with picnidia on theblackcurrant’s leaves (Petrescu and Oprea, 2012).The present study brings the new data related tothe possibility of „in vitro” vegetative growthinhibition of fungus mycelium using saprophyticfungi species. The fungal saprophyticspecies used for experimentation are alreadycited as antagonists of various pathogens of
