Evaluation of Selected Bacterial Endophytes for Biocontrol Potential against Phytophthora Blight of Bell Pepper (Capsicum annuum L.)
Author(s): Irabor A and Mmbaga MT Irabor A and Mmbaga MT
Phytophthora blight, caused by Phytophthora capsici, is the most destructive disease of bell pepper in the United States. The effectiveness of current management strategies is limited by the long-term survival of oospores, wide host range, aggressive fungicide-resistant isolates, and lack of resistant cultivars with acceptable agronomic traits. Biological control is a viable alternative, and the use of endophytic microorganisms as biological control agents (BCA) has attracted widespread attention because they colonize the same ecological niches as plant pathogens. Seven isolates of bacterial endophytes in three genera Serratia (B17B), Enterobacter (E), and Bacillus (IMC8, Y, Ps, Psl and Prt), isolated from papaya, snap bean and flowering dogwood were evaluated for effects on P. capsici mycelial growth in vitro, and on disease severity and plant growth in gre..
