Study on properties of Czapek filtrate medium after the culture of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides (Penz.) Sacc. fungus, the pathogen of twister disease of onion, revealed an IAA-like substance activity. The Rf value of paper chromatography was 0.52-0.54, which was the same Rf value of standard IAA. One directional thin-layer chromatography in different 7 solvent mixtures showed also an IAA-like substance activity at Rf 0.35, 0.56, 0.94, 0.71, 0.48, 0 and 0.20 which corresponded to the Rf value of standard IAA 0.35, 0.58, 0.49, 0.71, 0.48, 0 and 0.20, respectively. Moreover, IAA-like substance was also recorded by high performance liquid chromatography at retention time 18.4 min. It can be concluded that the fungi can produce IAA-like substance in Czapek medium. Furthermore, the fungi grown in Czapek medium comprising 200 ppm tryptophan synthesized more IAA-like substance than in those medium in the absent of tryptophan. The maximum content of this IAA-like substance was detected in 14 days. However, in comparing to the culture filtrate from medium without tryptophan, 200 ppm standard tryptophan and 200-400 ppm standard IAA, the culture filtrate from medium containing 200 ppm tryptophan caused an abnormal symtomps of elongation and twisting of young leaf in 7 days. Histological study represented that wall and nucleus of cell around injected areas were degraded significantly. The use of 100, 500 and 1000 ppm, 20 micro L of triiodobenzoic acid (TIBA) and 100, 500, 1000 ppm, 20 micro L sodium fluoride (NaF) onto infected plants reduced IAA-like substance content, but they can not inhibit the disorder of the plants.
