Antagonistic Evaluation of Chromobacterium sp. JH7 for Biological Control of Ginseng Root Rot Caused by Cylindrocarpon destructans

Cylindrocarpon destructans is an ascomycete soil-borne pathogen that causes ginseng root rot. To identify effective biocontrol agents, we isolated several bacteria from ginseng cultivation soil and evaluated their antifungal activity. Among the isolated bacteria, one isolate (named JH7) was selected for its high antibiotic activity and was further examined for antagonism against fungal pathogen...
