Merril) Cultivar JS-335 against Challenge Inoculation with R. solani JF - American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences VL - 10 IS - 2 DO - 10.3844/ajabssp.2015.99.110 UR - https://thescipub.com/abstract/ajabssp.2015.99.110 AB - Endophytes could be efficient biological control agent in sustainable crop production and offer unique opportunity for crop protection and biological control. Present study was carried out to investigate the effects of indigenous endophytic microorganisms Pseudomonas sp., Bacillus sp., Burkholderia sp. Streptomyces sp., Actinoplanes sp., Alternaria sp. and Fusarium sp. on plant growth and disease control against challenge inoculation with Rhizoctonia solani in soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merril). It was observed that treatment with endophytes significantly (p
