| 摘要 |
New bacterial strains of the species B. firmus have been found, which possess a nematicidal activity. The bacteria and their active mutants are used for controlling nematode infestation of various plants. The strains have been deposited and given the accession numbers CNCM 1-1556 and CNCM 1-1562, respectively. Furthermore, a composition containing the strains or spores therefrom, as an active ingredient and carrier is disclosed. In addition a method for controlling plant-pathogenic nematodes, such as those nematodes capable of producing root-knot disease are also disclosed.
