Abstract
Abstract A bacterial inoculant is disclosed for controlling root rot in peas caused by Aphanomyces fungus. The inoculum is obtained from general bacterial strains including strains of Pseudomonas cepacia, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Corynebacterium flaccumfaciens, and two other Bacillus strains of uncertain taxonomy.
