Identification of phosphate-solubilizing fungi from the asparagus rhizosphere as antagonists of the root and crown rot pathogen Fusarium oxysporum

Abstract: Identification of phosphate solubilizing fungi in the root zone of asparagus that can inhibit the growth of root and crown rot pathogen (Fusarium oxysporum) is important for the development of bio-fertilizer and bio-control strategies for organic production of asparagus. This study aimed to identify fungi with the ability to solubilize phosphate and inhibit the growth of F. oxysporum in vitro. Twenty five soil samples were collected from the asparagus rhizosphere in the planting areas of Dan Ma Kham Tea distri… Show more

“…In present study the phosphate solubilization index of the isolate recorded was 3.9. The ratios for bacteria in this study were much higher than 1.17-2.96 for phosphate-solubilising fungi in asparagus root zone [17]. Islam et al [18] reported the phosphate solubilization index of the rice isolates varied from 1.2 to 6.7.…”

“…The halo:colony ratios for bacteria in this study were much higher than 1.17-2.96 for phosphate-solubilizing fungi in our previous findings in asparagus root zone 21 . The colonies of the bacteria were however much smaller than those of fungi because bacteria had much slower growth than fungi, and the growth character would affect their ability to solubilize phosphate.…”

“…The samples were incubated at room temperature for 20 min and their absorbance measured at 880 nm using the UV-Vis spectrophotometer. The amount of soluble phosphate was determined using a potassium dihydrogen phosphate standard [14].…”
