In recent decades, intensive crop management has involved excessive use of pesticides or fertilizers, compromising environmental integrity and public health. Accordingly, there been worldwide pressure to find an eco-friendly safe strategy ensure agricultural productivity. Among alternative approaches, Plant Growth-Promoting (PGP) rhizobacteria are receiving increasing attention as suitable bioc...

Soil-borne diseases are a significant cause of reduction in crop yield. Alternative management soils can enhance the natural disease-controlling organisms soil. This study explores impact alternative production methods on primary soybean disease, charcoal rot, caused by fungus Macrophomina phaseolina. Treatments that could potentially or control disease were implemented, and soil tests conducte...

trichoderma harzianum (t39), t.virens (dar74290), t.viride (mo), t. harzianum (m) and trichderminb a commercial formulation of t. harzianum(bi) were evaluated as potential biological agents for the control of charcoal stem rot in melon caused by macrophomina phaseolina. cell-free metabolites of t. harzianum(m), t. harzianum (t39) and t. virens (dar 74290) inhibited growth of m. phaseolina compl...
