Abstracts |
Deleterious rhizobacteria (DRB) are non-parasitic bacteria that are associated with plant roots and inhibit or reduce plant growth. The main mode of action for DRB to inhibit growth is by the production of phytotoxins. They can also reduce plant growth, however, by directly competing with the plant for nutrients or indirectly by reducing the colonization of beneficial microorganisms such as rhizobia or mycorrhiza. |
