Abstract:Screens for Fusarium wilt antagonistic bacteria have generally focused on screening for antagonistic strains from healthy plants, with few reports of screening for antagonists from leaves of diseased plants. In this study, we used cucumber leaves infected with Fusarium wilt disease for the isolation of antagonists and a total of four endophytes with obvious antagonistic effects were screened. Based on the results of physiological and biochemical experiments and 16S rDNA gene sequencing, four strains were ident… Show more
