Benomyl resistant strains of Fusarium moniliforme, the causal fungus of “Bakanae” disease, were assayed using the Komada medium in place of PSA medium. Growth of mycelia on the Komada medium was slow and MIC value was lower than that on PSA medium. However, the method was able to evaluate Benomyl resistance on the Komada medium after 7 days of incubation. This method can be used for determining Benomyl resistance without the need for sterile operations.
