Dutch Turfgrass Research Foundation Abstract (Thanks to DTRF) | "The BioJect reactor ('microbial fermentation and injection system') makes an easy growth and application of beneficial organisms to turfgrass on golf courses possible. Pseudomonas aureofaceans controls soilborne pathogens, i.e. fungi, and Azospirillum brasilense provides for healthier turf. The biological mechanisms in the soil and the results of field tests are described" |
