A miniaturized and rapid bioassay for the selection of soil bacteria suppressive to pythium blight of turfgrasses
1992-02-01
Abstract excerpt
A miniaturized plant assay was developed to screen bacterial strains for their ability to suppress Pythium blight of turfgrasses caused by Pythium aphanidermatum. Bacteria were recovered from soil and thatch from both high-maintenance and low-maintenance turfgrass sites and tested on creeping bentgrass plants grown in wells of tissue culture plates (TCP) and then in pots of perennial ryegrass in the growth chamber...
