Biocontrol del marchitamiento vascular causado por Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici mediante el uso de la bacteria endófita Azospirillum sp. en tomate (Solanum lycopersicum L.)

Abstract

In this work, the biocontrol capacity of the endophytic bacterium Azospirillum sp. on the fungus Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici (FOL), was evaluated by in vitro and in vivo inhibition techniques. The results establish that the use of Azospirillum sp. reduces the effects caused by FOL and can be used for the biological control of tomato.
