It is well established that some bacteria can suppress plant diseases through the expression of multiple mechanisms, including the direct inhibition of plant pathogens and the indirect induction of plant host resistance pathways (Kim et al., 2011). Because of this, microbes that form close associations with plants are the primary source of active ingredients in biopesticides for the control of ...

BACKGROUND Plant fungal pathogens play a crucial role in the profitability, quality and quantity of plant production. These phytopathogens are persistent in avoiding plant defences causing diseases and quality losses around the world that amount to billions of US dollars annually. To control the scourge of plant fungal diseases, farmers have used fungicides to manage the damage of plant pathoge...
