THỬ NGHIỆM CHẾ PHẨM SINH HỌC BS2 PHÒNG TRỪ BỆNH MỐC SƯƠNG TRÊN CÂY CÀ CHUA

Plant-pathogenic fungi and bacteria can be affected by fungal and bacterial antagonists such a naturally occurring interference between beneficial microorganisms and plant pathogens that contributes to the natural buffering of cropping systems, thus preventing or limiting disease spread. Biological control offers an environmentally friendly alternative to the use of fungicides for controlling plant diseases. Bio-product BS2 was produced from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens and Streptomyces toxytricini which are used in IPM programmes as a biocontrol agent to control late blight disease of tomato caused by Phytophthora infestans. The population of the pathogen was reduced by 77.61% as a result, leading to an increase in a famer’s income (tomato yield increased by 16.69%).
