Ampelomyces quisqualis

Ampelomyces quisqualis is an anamorphic fungus that is a hyperparasite of powdery mildews. This parasitism reduces growth and may eventually kill the mildew. These mycoparasites can live up to 21-days on mildew-free host plant surfaces, where they can attack powdery mildew structures as soon as they appear. [4] Also A.quisqualis is used as the active ingredient in a commercial fungicide.[5][6]
