Diversity analysis of antagonists from rice-associated bacteria and their application in biocontrol of rice diseases

Abstract

This is the first attempt to study the diversity and identification of rice-associated antagonistic bacteria from different microenvironments, and endophytic bacteria Deinococcus aquaticus strain 1Re14, Acidovorax sp. isolate 3Re21 and Brevibacillus brevis strain 1Pe2 are first reported as rice-associated bacteria.
