Abstract

Organisms for biological control of plant disease can be used in various ways, but most attention has been given to their conservation and augmentation in a particular environment, rather than to the importation and addition of new species as is often done for insect or weed control. The choice of these approaches is in part because there is usually a diverse set of microbes already associated with plants. These microbes provide substantial opportunity for development of resident species as competitors or antagonists to pathogenic organisms.
