Project description
The aim of the project is to develop an integrated contral strategy against Rhizoctonia solani on bean and cabbage and Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. Lycopersici on tomato, based on soil amendments with lignin, alone or in combination with antagonistic Pseudomonas bacteria that produce phenazine antibiotics and/ or biosurfactants. This method should be applicable in Vietnamese soil conditions.
