Abstract:Aims
We aimed to develop an effective bacterial combination that can combat F. oxysporum infection in watermelon using in vitro and pot experiments.
Methods and results
In total, 53 strains of Bacillus and 4 strains of Pseudomonas were screened. Pseudomonas strains P3 and P4 and Bacillus strains XY-2-3, XY-13, and GJ-1-15 exhibited good antagonistic effects against F. oxysporum. P3 and P4 were identified as P. chlororaphis an… Show more
