Soil amendment by composted plant wastes reduces the Verticillium dahliae abundance and changes soil chemical properties in a bell pepper cropping system

Organic amendments can be effective at controlling some soil-borne pathogens. This work entailed two parts; the first involved two field experiments that investigated the effects of four different composts derived from agricultural wastes on soil load of Verticillium dahliae in organic and conventio...
