Isolation of the chitinolytic bacteria Xanthomonas maltophilia and Serratia marcescens as biological control agents for summer patch disease of the turfgrass

1995-11-01

Abstract excerpt

A mycelial baiting method was used to isolate chitinolytic bacteria from soils known to harbor Magnaporthe poae, the causal agent of summer patch on Kentucky bluegrass. Two bacterial isolates, identified as Xanthomonas maltophilia 34S1 and Serratia marcescens 9M5, suppressed summer patch symptom development in Kentucky bluegrass cv. Baron by more than 70 and 50%, respectively, when compared to untreated control pl...
