Abstract

A bacterial strain HC-03,isolated from rhizosphere soil of citrus farms,exhibited extensive antagonistic effect on 12 fruit pathogens.The strain was identified as Bacillus amyloliquefaciens based on 16S rDNA sequence homology,specific PCR detection,physiological and biochemical characteristics and morphological observation.Effect of different treatments of strain HC-03 against disease caused by Penicillium digitatum on inoculated shatang mandarin was also investigated.Results showed that citrus green mold incidence of shatang mandarin treated by cell culture,cell-free filtrate and cell suspension of strain HC-03 were all less than 20%,and lesion diameter were all below 10 mm.
