Abstract

The efficacy of biofilm culture filtrate from Streptomyces albus strain CEN26 to control late blight pathogen, Phytophthora infestans was investigated. Inhibition of P. infestans, mycelial growth, germination and viability of the sporangia were evaluated and found that the minimum concentration of the filtrate at 60 % effectively 100 % inhibited the fungus. The filtrate concentration at 40 % resulted in significant inhibition of the fungal mycelial growth and sporangia viability at lower rates than the 60 % trials, though, it’s still extremely inhibited the sporangia germination in all incubation period trials. Even though, the concentration at 20 % had no effect on sporangia viability but clearly restrained its germination period. The disease control trial in greenhouse condition using bioproducts produced from biofilm culture filtrate combined with dry spore of S. albus strain CEN26 showed reductions in both percentages of disease incidence and severity index better than the trial of bioproduct produced from only the dry spore. Then, bioproduct produced from biofilm culture filtrate combined with the dry spore was selected to apply in farmer plot trial, by spraying 0.3 g/l once a week for 4 months, the disease reduction was found with percent of disease incidence and severity index revealed at 25.45 % and 45.63 %, while the untreated farmer plot was determined at 52.30 % and 75.45 %, respectively.
