The effect of tobacco dust and composts containing those wastes on soil fungi was determined. It was found that crude tobacco dust, as opposed to composts, acted selectively making the species composition of soil fungal populations poor and changing the interrelations of potentially antagonistic and phytopathogenic fungi.
