Control of damping-off, Fusarium and Verticillium wilt of cotton by miankangning, a bacterial biocontrol agent

摘要

Damping-off, Fusarium and Veritcillium wilt are severe disease in Xinjiang Autonomous Region. The present control measure for Fusarium wilt is to plant resistant cultivars, but no highly resistant cultivars are available for control of damping-off and Verticillium wilt of cotton. MIANKANGNING is a bacterial biocontrol agent, which was created by China Agricultural University (CAU). We tested the effectiveness of this biocontrol agent in controlling the diseases mentioned above in field.
