Immunological probes were developed to discriminate between a potential biological control fungus and sap-staining fungi present in wood. This paper describes the production of monoclonal antibodies to isolated cell wall fragments of the biological control fungus Gliocladium roseum. Two monoclonals, designated 6A5 and 3F12, were characterized. Their specificity was assessed by ELISA, by immunogold silver staining light microscopy, by immunogold electron microscopy, and by immunoblotting. Monoclonal 6A5 specifically recognized G. roseum and closely related species and did not react with any of 21 sap-staining fungi tested. Monoclonal 3F12 recognized most of the biological control fungi tested and also showed reactivity with two of the 21 sap-staining fungi. Both monoclonals appeared to recognize carbohydrate epitopes of the cell wall in G. roseum. Although the antibodies were produced against the cell wall of fungus grown in liquid culture, they also detected specific fungi in wood and, therefore, can be used for studies of wood colonization by fungi and for investigations of the interactions between different fungi growing on wood.
