Resumen
Evaluation of growth of four species of the genus Bacillus sp., the first step to understand their biocontrol effect on Fusarium sp.. Nova [online]. 2016, vol.14, n.26, pp.53-62. ISSN 1794-2470.
Objetive. Evaluate the conditions of growth of four species of native Bacillus sp. on the scale of in minimal medium 10ml Sales (MMS) as a first step to understand their biocontrol action against Fusarium sp. Methods. The procedure for evaluating the growth of UCMC-TB1, UCMC-TB2, UCMC-TB3 and TB4 UCMC-isolates was performed using spectrophotometry and direct plate count and dual antagonism tests to evaluate the effect against Fusarium sp. Results. Identification by biochemical tests of the four isolates were confirmed: Bacillus licheniformis, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus pumilus and Bacillus cereus; all showed antagonism in vitro. Bacillus subtilis was the species that showed increased antagonistic capacity (79.73% PICR) and the main features of this strain were the speed of growth and death. The genus Bacillus is one of the most reported for use in the biological control of fungi such as Fusarium sp. It is attacking a large number of crops of economic interest to the agricultural sector in Colombia.
