Bacillus pumilus WP8 exhibits biocontrol efficacy against tomato bacterial wilt via attenuation of the virulence of the pathogenic bacterium
Bacillus pumilus WP8 is a plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium (PGPR) with good biocontrol efficacy against tomato bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia solanacearum Rs1115. Biocontrol, however, is not due to antagonism of the pathogenic bacterium. Thus, we hypothesised that the biocontrol efficacy of...
