Abstract/Contents: | Discusses potential disease control methods, including biological control or the use of microorganisms. States that "one biocontrol tactic is to exploit and enhance naturally occurring communities of microbes. An example is the application of certain composts that suppress diseases by enriching microbe numbers and diversity in the turf." Describes research conducted at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL) "focused on isolated bacteria as biocontrol agents." |
