Endophytic fungi are plant symbiont microorganisms, diverse and abundant in tropical regions, with great potential as biocontrol agents of agricultural fungal diseases. The objective the present work was to evaluate vitro antifunfal activity endophytic associated creole cultivars Cucumis sativus Lagenaria siceraria from Yucatán. strains were isolated identified different organs, be subjected dual confrontations antibiotic tests. Twenty species antifungal effects against Corynespora cassiicola, Colletotrichum truncatum Fusarium equiseti identified, obtaining inhibition ranges 17.72–100%, 16.51–91.55% 4.64–91.89%, respectively. Aspergillus flavus, Lasiodiplodia pseudotheobromae Trichoderma longibrachiatum exhibited highest percentages three phytopathogens. Likewise, these endophytes demonstrated an effect their extracts, mainly inhibiting growth F. by up 46.46%. L. strain has characteristics that give it agent, so its applications conditions should continue explored. This represents a first effort understand diversity native crops region.
