Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the role of bacterium in many facets of human life. Describes the benefits of bacteria in turf for "holding pathogenic microbes at bay," including the production of antibiotics and other inhibitors; simple competition for food, water and space; stimulation of the plant's own system of defenses; and an environment around the plant roots that encourages growth of beneficial microbes. Addresses the importance of maintaining a varied population of both microbes and bacteria. |
