- Claim:
1. A method of treating plant soil or media to reduce plant pathogens, comprising: contacting the plant soil or media with an effective amount of biocontrol composition comprising Bacillus subtilis spizizenii , having ATCC Accession No. PTA-12842; and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens , having ATCC Accession No. PTA-12843, to reduce the effects of the plant pathogens on a plant or seed grown in the plant soil or media.
- Claim:
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the biocontrol composition further comprises at least one of a fertilizer, an insecticide, a fungicide, and a nematicide.
- Claim:
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the biocontrol composition further comprises at least one of a carrier, a buffering agent, a wetting agent, a coating agent, and an abrading agent.
- Claim:
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the contacting the plant soil or media is by topical application.
- Claim:
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising adding the biocontrol composition to water provided to the plant soil or media.
- Claim:
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plant or seed grown in the plant soil or media is a food crop; a turf grass; a flowering plant, bush or tree; a fruit-bearing plant or vegetable; a household plant; a nursery plant; a landscape plant; or a biomass plant.
- Claim:
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the plant or seed grown in the plant soil or media is alfalfa, rice, wheat, barley, rye, cotton, sunflower, peanut, corn, potato, sweet potato, bean, pea, chicory, lettuce, endive, cabbage, brussel sprout, beet, parsnip, turnip, cauliflower, broccoli, turnip, radish, spinach, onion, garlic, eggplant, pepper, celery, carrot, squash, pumpkin, zucchini, cucumber, apple, banana, pear, melon, citrus, strawberry, grape, raspberry, pineapple, soybean, tobacco, tomato, sorghum, or sugarcane.
- Claim:
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the biocontrol composition further comprises Bacillus megaterium , having ATCC Accession No. PTA-12845.
- Claim:
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the biocontrol composition further comprises Bacillus vallismortis , having ATCC Accession No. PTA-12844.
- Claim:
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the biocontrol composition further comprises Paenibacillus polymyxa , having ATCC Accession No. PTA-12841.
- Claim:
11. A biocontrol composition for reducing plant pathogens, comprising: an isolate of Bacillus subtilis spizizenii , having ATCC Accession No. PTA-12842; an isolate of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens , having ATCC Accession No. PTA-12843; and a carrier.
- Claim:
12. The biocontrol composition of claim 11 , further comprising an isolate of Bacillus megaterium , having Paenibacillus polymyxa , having ATCC Accession No. PTA-12841.
- Claim:
13. The biocontrol composition of claim 11 , further comprising an isolate of Bacillus vallismortis , having ATCC Accession No. PTA-12844.
- Claim:
14. The biocontrol composition of claim 11 , further comprising an isolate of Bacillus megaterium , having ATCC Accession No. PTA-12845.
- Claim:
15. The biocontrol composition of claim 11 , further comprising at least one of a buffering agent, a wetting agent, a coating agent, and an abrading agent.
- Claim:
16. The biocontrol composition of claim 11 , further comprising at least one of a fertilizer, an insecticide, a fungicide, and a nematicide.
