ABSTRACT:
A method and composition is provided to control fungal infection of seeds and seedlings. Certain species of Streptomyces are grown on dried ground shrimp waste preferably suspended in a mineral salts medium. The supernate derived from the culture provides fungal infection control when used as a seed-coating or seed-soaking material. The residue, consisting of unused shrimp waste and a Streptomyces species, also provides protection against fungal infection of plants such as cotton seedlings. The residue is employed as a amendment to the soil in the immediate area of the newly planted seed.
