Use of rifampicin-resistant bacterial biocontrol strains for monitoring survival in soil and colonisation of pea seedling roots

Uses spontaneous rifampicin-resistant strains of two bacterial biocontrol agents, Bacillus subtilis and Paenibacillus polymyxa, with potential to control Aphanomyces euteiches root rot of peas, to assess bacterial survival in soil and colonisation of pea seedling roots.
