Abstract excerpt
Stem rot of groundnut caused by the soilborne pathogen Sclerotium rolfsii can cause significant yield losses. Biological control of stem rot using actinomycetes is a viable alternative to existing fungicidal management.

Here, actinomycetes were isolated from groundnut rhizospheric so...
