## Abstract

It is intended to establish a technology of controlling Gramineous plant seed-borne disease that avoids the danger of development of resistant pathogeus, being highly safe to environment and stable. There is provided a fungus having activity of controlling fungal disease and bacterial disease occurring during the raising of rice plant seedling, and are further provided, using the fungus as an active ingredient, a controlling agent, method of controlling and biological material.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A biologically pure culture of Talaromyces sp. B-422 strain having Accession No. FERM BP-08516.

### Claim 2

A composition comprising a viable biologically pure culture of strain Talaromyces sp. B-422 strain having Accession No. FERM BP-08516 and a solid or liquid carrier, wherein the strain is present in an amount sufficient for controlling diseases caused by Gibberella fujikuroi and Burkholderia plantarii.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The composition according to claim 2 further comprising an insecticide, a nematicide, a miticide, a herbicide, or a plant growth stimulator.

### Claim 4

A method for controlling diseases in gramineous plants caused by Gibberella fujikuroi and Burkholderia plantarii, wherein a gramineous plant, a gramineous plant seed, a soil for raising seedlings of a gramineous plant, a rock wool for raising seedlings of a gramineous plant, and/or a nursery box for raising seedlings of a gramineous plant is/are treated with an amount of a viable biologically pure culture of Talaromyces sp. B-422 strain having Accession No. FERM BP-08516 sufficient for controlling diseases caused by Gibberella fujikuroi and Burkholderia plantarii.
