Compost and compost tea: Principles and prospects as substrates and soil-borne disease management strategies in soil-less vegetable production (2012, background): “( 2002 ) found that the water extracts from several composts were suppressive to several soil-borne pathogens, but the extracts did not contain antibiotics or siderophores.”
Control of Botrytis cinerea, Alternaria alternata and Pyrenochaeta lycopersici on tomato with whey compost-tea applications (2012, unknown): “Such results were consistent with other studies which reported the lack of an antagonistic effect of sterile compost teas or simple extracts against the assayed pathogen (BernalVicente et al., 2008; El-Masry et al., 2002; McQuilken et al., 1994).”
Suppressive effect of non-aerated compost teas on foliar fungal pathogens of tomato (2010, background): “…present in the tea may act as pathogen antagonists through their ability to compete for space and nutrients (Al-Mughrabi et al., 2008), to destroy pathogens by parasitism (El-Masry et al., 2002), to produce antimicrobial compounds, or to induce systemic resistance in plants (Zhang et al., 1998).”
Suppression of soil-borne plant diseases with composts: A review (2005, background): “El-Masry et al. (2002) found that the water extracts from several composts were suppressive to several soil-borne pathogens, but the extracts did not contain antibiotics or siderophores.”
