Rhizospheric bacteria as potential biocontrol agents against Fusarium wilt and crown and root rot diseases in tomato

The discovery of novel biocontrol agents requires the continuous scrutiny of native microorganisms to ensure that they will be useful on a regional scale. The goal of the present work was to discover novel antagonistic bacteria against Fusarium oxysporum ff. spp. lycopersici race 3 (Fol R3) and radi...
