134 T.Batchimeg, B.Dondov, Journal of agricultural sciences №15 (02): 134-137, 2015 RESULTS OF BACILLUS SUBTILIS AGAINST MAJOR DISEASES ON GREENHOUSE CROPS T.Batchimeg*, B.Dondov Plant protection research institute, MULS, Mongolia *- Corresponding author, E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Bacillus subtilis and other Bacilli have long been used in the field of agriculture as a biocontrol reagent to protect plants against soil-borne plant pathogens. Evaluation the efficacy of bio-agents, application as foliar spray against vegetables foliar diseases incidence was carried out in greenhouse conditions. The tested Russian bioagents Bacillus subtilis-26D, and Bacillus subtilis-M-22 were evaluated. The recorded foliar diseases, i.e. Powdery mildew, Angular spots of Cucumber, Early, Late blights of Tomato were significantly reduced at all treatments either alone or in combinations comparing with untreated plants. Application with either B. subtilis-26D and B.subtilis-M22 showed significant reduction in diseases incidence comparing with the untreated control. KEY WORDS: tomato, cucumber, bioagent, fungi, bacteria INTRODUCTION Vegetable crops grown under protected cultivation, the leaves, stems and fruits of cucumber grown in facing a serious problem due to diseases infection greenhouses. Late and early blights of tomato caused that cause about 10-15 % loss of produced yield Phytophthora infestans and Alternaria solani were because of favourable environment for disease also recorded in growing greenhouse tomato. incidence and development. Therefore, many control Among the biocontrol agents, species of the strain practices need to be integrated in order for Bacillus subtilis is most promising and effective minimizing this figure to occur.

Powdery mildew disease is one of the most Powdery mildew and angular spot of Cucumber, serious plant diseases, causing large yield losses in a Early and Late blights of Tomato under greenhouse number of crops.

On cucumber we reduction in diseases incidence comparing with the Vegetable crops grown under protected cultivation, the leaves, stems and fruits of cucumber grown in detected 5 fungal, 2 bacterial and 1 virul, on tomato control. The recorded percentage of Powdery facing a serious problem due to diseases infection greenhouses. Late and early blights of tomato caused 4 fungal, 2 bacterial and 1 virul diseases. We mildew in bio-agents spray application ranged that cause about 10-15 % loss of produced yield Phytophthora infestans and Alternaria solani were calculated disease prevalence and development between 18.7-27.2%, angular spot is 6.7-10.5% in because of favourable environment for disease also recorded in growing greenhouse tomato. before and after application bioagents and on tomato Cucumber comparing with 75.0-53.3% in control incidence and development. Therefore, many control Among the biocontrol agents, species of the strain disease prevalence is 3.3-11.2% and development is treatment, respectively. Tomato plants recorded practices need to be integrated in order for Bacillus subtilis is most promising and effective 3.3-6.7%. On cucumber disease prevalence is 5.0- Early and Late blights infection as 5.0-16.0% and minimizing this figure to occur.
