摘要：Soil-borne plant pathogenic fungi are of major concern problem in agriculture which affects yield andquality of agricultural products. In this study, antagonistic effects of two bacterial biocontrol agents, Pseudomonasaeuroginosa and Bacillus subtilis isolated from rhizosphere were evaluated against plant pathogenic fungi Fusariumoxysporum, Rhizoctonia solani causing soft cottony leak of cucurbitaceous fruits. The ability of Pseudomonasaeruginosa and Bacillus subtilis in antagonizing or inhibiting the growth of phytopathogenic fungi was tested bymeasuring the inhibition zone for the growth of the tested fungi using dual culture method. Both bacterial antagonist,Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas aeuroginosa had significantly inhibited the radial growth of tested fungal pathogens.Solubility of siderophore of two bacterial strains was examined.
