Abstract

Twenty eight isolates of fungi and 175 isolates of bacteria had been isolated from plant tissues of cabbage, marigold, and onion by means of dilution method. Among these microorganisms, three isolates of Bacillus spp. had been proven to be antagonistic to Alternaria solani according to the size of clear zone on dual culture and the phenomenon of complete inhibition in concomitant culture. They were Bacillus megaterium MBS4, Bacillus brevis OBSll. and Bacillus subtilis var. globigii CBS 10. The broth of either tested plant tissues had no effect on inhibition of germination of A. solani. The cell-free metabolites produced from these three antagonists were significantly (P-0.05) reduced the conidial germination of A. solani. Isolates of antagonistic Bacillus spp. cultured in onion broth reduced germination ability of A. solani and caused conidia malformation. i.e.. germ tube shorter. swollen, and conidia shrunken. In greenhouse and field trials, spraying antagonists cultured in onion broth significantly (P-0.05) reduced the disease severity of tomato early blight. Based on various tests in vitro for screening fungicides, the fungicidal effect of flusilazol was the best among five tested fungicides. Either in greenhouse or field trials. 200 ppm flusilazol could significantly (P=0.05) reduce the disease severity of tomato early blight.
