ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a method for preparing pellets containing living biocontrol fungi and nutrient dispersed throughout. Living fungi are selected and grown for inoculum. The fungal propagules and wheat bran are added to a sodium alginate solution. The fungal propagule-alginate-bran mixture is added dropwise into a solution of calcium chloride. The resultant alginate gel pellets containing living fungi can be dried and used to inoculate agricultural fields infested with soilborne diseases.
