BIOCONTROL OF PLANT DISEASES USING NOVEL ENDOPHYTIC ISOLATE OF BURKHOLDERIA VIETNAMENSIS MC1404

摘要

An endophytic microorganism Burkholderia vietnamensis MC1404 and an antifungal composition comprising the same microorganism are provided, which microorganism has strong antifungal activity and resides within the plants, so that the microorganism can effectively control fungus residing within the plants. The microorganism Burkholderia vietnamensis MC1404(KACC 91060) having antifungal activity is provided, wherein the Burkholderia vietnamensis MC1404(KACC 91060) is isolated from the roots of plants; and the Burkholderia vietnamensis MC1404(KACC 91060) has antifungal activity against Botrytis cinerea, Alternaria alternata, Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycolersici, Fusarium oxysporum, Pythium ultinum, Colletotrichum lagenarium, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, Phytophtora drechsien, Phytopthora capsici, Phytopthora infestans, Rhizoctonia solani, Cylindrocarpon destructans, Alternaria panax, Rhizoctonia solani, Pyricularia grisea, Fusarium rosem and Fusarium moniliforme.
