Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Vermicomposts produced from animal manure significantly reduced infection of tomato seedlings by Phytophthora nicotianae
- Intervention effect Density of Phytophthora nicotianae in media with animal-manure vermicomposts was similar to infested peat
- Intervention effect Vermicomposts from sewage sludge did not protect tomato seedlings against Phytophthora nicotianae
- Intervention effect Sewage sludge vermicomposts decreased the density of the pathogen in container media
- Intervention effect Vermicomposts had no effect on total number of micro-organisms in potting media compared with control
- Observation Vermicomposts had higher levels of actinomycetes that did not correspond with their ability to suppress the pathogen
