Abstract

inoculated with selected biocontrol strains found protected from disease and an increase in plant growth parameters on par with carbendazim fungicides. This study proves that the isolates identified in this study could be used as an alternative to chemical fungicides to control red rot pathogen of sugarcane plants.
