Resumen
[EN] The study of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) has expanded because of the growing need
to search for new bioactive compounds that could be used as therapeutic alternatives. These small
molecules serve as signals to establish interactions with other nearby organisms in the environment.
In this work, we evaluated the antifungal effect of VOCs produced by different Streptomyces spp. This
study was performed using VOC chamber devices that allow for the free exchange of VOCs without
physical contact between microorganisms or the diffusible compounds they produce. Antifungal
activity was tested against Escovopsis weberi, a fungal pathogen that affects ant nest stability, and the
results showed that Streptomyces spp. CS014, CS057, CS131, CS147, CS159, CS207, and CS227 inhibit
or reduce the fungal growth with their emitted VOCs. A GS-MS analysis of volatiles produced and
captured by activated charcoal suggested that these Streptomyces strains synthesize several antifungal
VOCs, many of them produced because of the presence of E. weberi, with the accumulation of various
VOCs determining the growth inhibition effect.
