ABSTRACT:
A method for screening bacteria to select strains which will suppress diseases caused by the fungus Gaeumannomyces graminis (Gg) under field conditions and a method for applying field-suppressive bacteria to suppress Gg in a commercial setting. Four fluorescens Pseudomonas strains are disclosed which are effective in suppressing take-all in wheat.
