* The concentrations was 0.5 mL/L air space.
** Growth inhibition after 6 days was calculated as percentage inhibition compared with that of a control grown under the same conditions in the absence of the chemical compound.
*** Viability of the tested fungi after 6 days of exposure to the chemical compound.
