Title: Effects of actinobacteria on plant disease suppression and growth promotion. Author: Palaniyandi SA, Yang SH, Zhang L, Suh JW. Journal: Appl Microbiol Biotechnol; 2013 Nov; 97(22):9621-36. PubMed ID: 24092003. Abstract: Biological control and plant growth promotion by plant beneficial microbes has been viewed as an alternative to the use of chemical pesticides and fertilizers. Bacteria and fungi that are naturally associated with plants and have a beneficial effect on plant growth by the alleviation of biotic and abiotic stresses were isolated and developed into biocontrol (BCA) and plant growth-promoting agents (PGPA). Actinobacteria are a group of important plant-associated spore-forming bacteria, which have been studied for their biocontrol, plant growth promotion, and interaction with plants. This review summarizes the effects of actinobacteria as BCA, PGPA, and its beneficial associations with plants.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
