Title

Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Chloroform fumigation increased tomato wilt.
- Intervention effect More tomato samples wilted with Yamadai than Mutsumi soil.
- Method / resource Rhizoplane isolates were classified into 22 groups.
- Observation One bacterial group predominated in Yamadai soil at 73.1%.
- Observation Bacterial group distribution was more even in Mutsumi soil.
- Observation Beta-proteobacteria-like gram-negative bacteria were most common at tomato rhizoplanes.
- Association Mutsumi rhizoplane bacteria grew more vigorously on pectin than Yamadai bacteria.
- Mechanism The authors infer that a diverse pectin-using rhizobacterial community hinders pathogen dominance.
