Chalkbrood is a highly contagious disease of te honeybee apis mellifera caused by the heterothallic fungus Ascosphaera apis. We tested the anti-fungal activity of ALBIO K and Pure Wild Organo Oil that were extracted from natural source against honeybee's Chalkbrood disease. As the results of using different experiments, it was found that the growth of A. apis was definitely inhibited by ALBIO K or Pure Wild Organo Oil in the early stage of germination. Especially, the anti-fungal effects of ALBIO K and Pure Wild Organo Oil were estimated in the disc-diffusion experiments via liquid or via air.
