Abstract:Fluorescent Pseudomonas have been extensively reported as effective biocontrol agents and can be used to manage Pythium seedling diseases in alfalfa. An in vivo methodology was developed to evaluate fluorescent Pseudomonas isolates for their ability to suppress disease and promote plant growth in the alfalfa-Pythium pathosystem. The standard method consists of a bioassay performed in growth chamber under controlled conditions of temperature and photoperiod. Alfalfa seeds were sown in commercial substrate and s… Show more
