The aim of this study was to investigate antifungal properties of the composition of Se and I nanoparticles (NPs) against strains of phytopathogenic fungi Acremonium cucurbitacearum 502, Acremonium strictum 048 and Fusarium sp. 072. It has been found that the composition of Se and I NPs has antifungal properties against these strains. The highest antifungal activity was against strain A. cucurbitacearum 502, manifesting as the decrease in the number of colonies (by 60.00- 86.67%) and the decrease of the diameter of colonies (by 78.95-94.22%). Antifungal activity against strain A. strictum 048 manifested as the decrease in the diameter of colonies by 52.67-75.00%. The diameter of colonies the strain Fusarium sp. 072 decreased by 25.26-51.75%. Changes in the morphology of the colonies of the strain A. strictum 048 were also noticed. Thus, the composition of Se and I nanoparticles has antifungal activity against fungal strains A. cucurbitacearum 502, A. strictum 048 and Fusarium sp. 072, which are valuable plant pathogens. The composition of Se and I NPs can be recommended for the development of the measures for the control of phytopathogenic fungi.
