Notes:
Summary Organic (e.g. chitin, green manure, cellulose) amendments to soil induced quantitative and qualitative changes in the rhizosphere microflora of antirrhinum plants infected withVerticillium dahliae Kleb. Whereas reduction in disease severity occurred with chitin and green manure amendments, an increase in disease severity was observed with the application of cellulose. The reduction of the disease severity with chitin and green manure may be correlated with the increased population of actinomycetes in the antirrhinum rhizosphere.
