These defense mechanisms involve in production of low molecular weight secondary metabolites and proteins which are termed as Pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins. However, most of the agricultural crops do not possess defense mechanism against pathogenic fungi. A protein having anti-mycotic property is required to make them resistant against fungal diseases. Some bacteria can produce anti-mycotic substances. In the present study, protein lysate were obtained from Bacillus pumilus, B. lentus, E. coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. To isolate protein, lysis of bacterial cells was done by homogenization method. Crude protein lysate of B. pumilus and P. aeruginosa showed antifungal activity against various fungi. Proteins of lysate of B. pumilus were fractionated by ino-exchange column chromatography. Antifungal activity was not found in any of the fraction.
