  Three indigenous tomato-associated rhizobacteria strains -Bacillus subtilis str. B2 KT921327, B. thuringiensis str. B10 KU158884 and Enterobacter cloacae str. B16 KT921429 - were tested singly and in combination as substrate drench for Rhizoctonia Root Root suppression and plant growth promotion on two tomato cultivars during two cropping seasons. All bacteria-based treatments were found to be more effective in suppressing disease than the fungicide on both cultivars and in both cropping seasons. The disease-suppression and growth-promotion abilities of the treatments tested varied significantly depending on pathogen presence or absence, bacterial strains, tomato cultivars and cropping years. Overall, for all trials and cultivars combined, disease suppression potential, as compared to the untrea.. View More»
