Abstract

Biological control is the use of natural or modied organisms, genes, or gene products, to reduce the effects of undesirable organisms such as plant pathogens, and to favor desirable organisms such as crops (Research Briefings, 1987). This denition is broad and includes genetic modication (genetic resistance) of the host plant. However, the main focus of this chapter will be on natural and modied organisms as biological control agents of plant pathogens. Biocontrol agents are known also as antagonists, and antagonism is the generalized mechanism that they use to reduce the survival or disease-causing activities of plant pathogens. Antagonism is actively expressed opposition and includes antibiosis, competition, and parasitism. Biological control of plant diseases with antagonists is accomplished by destroying existing pathogen inoculum, excluding the pathogen from the host plant, or suppressing or displacing the pathogen after infection has occurred (Cook and Baker, 1983).

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
