P. V. de aAntagonism of Serratia marcescens towards Phytophthora parasitica and its effects in promoting the growth of citrus.h[electronic resource] c2006 aPhytophthora parasitica causes serious widespread, and difficult-to-control root rots in warmer regions. This oomycete is one of the most important pathogen of citrus. This paper reports the biological control of the pathogen by a strain of Serratia marcescens R-35, isolated from citrus rhizosphere. In greenhouse trials, the bacterium suppressed more than 50% of the disease and promoted the plant growth. aSerratia marcescens aBactéria aControle biológico aDoença de planta aFruta citrica aRhizobium aRizosfera aCrescimento de planta aPhytophthora nicotianae var parasitica1 aMELO, I.
