Abstract:Large screens of bacterial strain collections to identify potential biocontrol agents are often time consuming, costly, and fail to provide quantitative results. In this study, we present two quantitative and high-throughput methods to assess the inhibitory capacity of bacterial biocontrol candidates against fungal phytopathogens. One method measures the inhibitory effect of bacterial culture supernatant components on the fungal growth, while the other accounts for direct interaction between growing bacteria a… Show more
