| Pea plants | Botrytis cinerea | Strawberry | P. fluorescens 122 was effective for the biocontrol of B. cinerea infection with pre- or post-harvest treatment, almost the same as commercial chemical fungicide. |
| The rhizosphere soil of pulse crops | Penicillium expansum, Mucor piriformis, Botrytis cinerea | Apple | P. fluorescens 1-112, 2-28 and 4-6 were highly effective for the inhibition of conidial germination of pathogens (over 90%), while the effect differed with apple varieties and pathogen types. |
| Tomato growing fields | Geotrichum candidum, Trichothecium roseum, Rhizopus oryzae | Tomato | Dual culture assay revealed that P. fluorescens inhibited the radial growth of G. candidum, T. roseum and R. oryzae. The results in vivo showed that P. fluorescens provided good control (78.1%) of G. candidum and (82.2%) R. oryzae, but not to T. roseum. |
| Academic exchange | Salmonella enterica | Tomato | P. fluorescens 2-79 reduced risk of foodborne diseases caused by S. enterica via competitive inhibition. |
| Laboratory preservation | Rhizoctonia solani | Cotton | P. fluorescens 2P24 strongly inhibited the growth of R. solani when cultured with glucose, whereas not with fructose or mannitol culture. |
