Evaluation of biological control of Erwinia amylovora, causal agent of fire blight disease of pear by antagonistic bacteria

2017-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Fire blight caused by Erwinia amylovora is one of the most important diseases of pear and apple trees in Kurdistan province, Iran. To develop an effective biocontrol method against the pathogen, a total of 22 bacteria were isolated from above parts of pear trees and screened for in vitro antagonistic activity. Ten isolates inhibited the growth of the pathogen were identified by biochemical tests and partial sequen...
