The biological control of plant diseases using beneficial rhizobacteria
is an environmentally friendly method that exhibits good
potential for use in ecologically friendly programs of disease management.
Members of the genus Bacillus are known to suppress
various plant diseases, such as anthracnose in red peppers [3],
mangos and wax apples [4], as well as root rot in ginseng caused by
Fusarium cf. incarnatum and Cylindrocarpon destructans
