Abstract:Rhizoctonia root rot of eggplant, caused by Rhizoctonia solani, is an economically important disease. Niallia circulans YRNF1 and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) were assessed for their biocontrol and biofertilizing effects against R. solani, as potential replacements for synthetic fungicides and fertilizers. The diazotrophic N. circulans YRNF1, isolated from soil, reduced in vitro growth of R. solani by 42%. GC-MS analysis of culture filtrate of N. circulans YRNF1 detected bioactive compounds, including bu… Show more
