Compatibility of azoxystrobin and chaetoglobosin biomolecules with bacterial antagonists

Abstract

The compatibility of azoxystrobin and chaetoglobosin biomolecules with bacterial antagonists was tested by using poison food technique. The results of this experiment denoted that, even at the highest concentration of azoxystrobin (2000 ppm) the bacterial growths were not inhibited, confirmed by recording the OD value of Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas fluorescens which was 1.86 and 1.84 as compared to 1.94 and 1.99 in control respectively. Chaetoglobosin also not controlled the multiplication of bacteria even at the highest concentration (2000 ppm) showed the OD value of 1.78 and 1.86 after 48 h of inoculation against Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas fluorescens. The OD values in control were 1.82 and 1.86 respectively against the same bio inoculants. Since not much difference observed between treatments and control, both the molecules could be compatible with bacterial bioinoculants.
