Horticulture/Biocontrols for Plant Pathogens

Biocontrols for plant pathogens include organism that consume, parasitize, or are antagonistic to the pathogenic organisms. Biocontrols that consume pathogens are generally soil organisms that use the pathogen as a nutrient source. Parasites include fungi and bacteria that are pathogens of the pathogen. Antagonistic organisms inhibit the pathogen by interfering with their biology.
