GA3 showed no effect or inhibited the growth of three isolates of Cylindrocarpon destructans of different pathogenicity to pine seedlings. All isolates produced GA-like substances. In the culture filtrates of the strong pathogenic isolate GA4/7 were detected. No correlation between their pathogenicity and susceptibility to GA3 as well as between their ability to produce gibberellin-like substances was found. In the infected pine seeds the level of GA-like substances was lower. The decrease of these substances was stated after 1 h of the contact of the seeds with the isolates and continued to decrease further as the contact progressed to 24 h. In healthy and infected seeds GA4/7 were detected. The changes in GA-like substances in the infected pine seeds did not correlate with different pathogenicity of the isolates
