aphanidermatum ]]>Ali SiddiquiImran 4200114Forty-one isolates of 38 species of fungi and 24 isolates of 8 species
of bacteria were tested in dual culture plates. Penicillium sp.,
2 unidentified bacteria and a sterile fungus were found to inhibit the
growth of Pythium aphanidermatum producing zones of inhibitions
of 7, 11,4 and 6 mm respectively, around the colony of the pathogen. One
strain each of Rhizobium meliloti, Bradyrhizobium sp., and Pseudomonas
aeruginosa initially producing zones of inhibition of 15, 20 and 2
mm respectively, but later the pathogen grew and colonies met each other.
Similarly, G. , virens initially produced a zone of inhibition
of 20 mm but later on the pathogen over grew the zone of inhibition and
colonies intermingled. A strain of P. aeruginosa also inhibited
the growth of P. aphanidermatum without producing zone of inhibition.]]>Van der Plaats-Niterink, A.J.,1981Pythium.]]>pp: 242pp: 242Siddiqui, I.A., S. Ehteshamul-Haque and A.
