Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment on the Effect of Formulative Materials on the Viability and Efficacy of Serratia marcescens-a Biocontrol Agent Against Fusarium oxysporum F. sp. cubense race 4A. S. Y. Ting, M. T. Fang, C. S. TeeProblem statement: Application of biocontrol agents to the field in pre-existing free-cell forms often results in poor cell viability which subsequently affects their efficacy in suppressing pathogen development. There is therefore a need to bioformulate these biocontrol agents not just to enhance their field potential, but for easy storage, delivery and application as well. Approach: In this study, the bioformulations … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,467 accessesView PDFCite
