Janthinobacterium agaricidamnosum
Janthinobacterium agaricidamnosum is a bacterium of the family Oxalobacteraceae and the genus Janthinobacterium that causes a soft rot disease of Agaricus bisporus.[3] Because of this ability, it could help treating diseases caused by fungi in humans.[4] Analyses have shown that jagaricin, a substance which is produced by J. agaricidamnosum, could have a major part for its antimycotic activity.[5]
