Abstract

Combination of fungal cell wall degrading enzymes (e.g., chitinolytic enzymes) and antifungal bacteria (e.g., E. cloacae) which bind to fungal cell walls in the presence of said enzymes even when sugars are present, increases potency and range of use of the bacteria and fosters proliferation thereof.
