Antagonistic bacteria of composted agro-industrial residues exhibit antibiosis against soil-borne fungal plant pathogens and protection of tomato plants from Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. radicis-lycopersici (2010, background): “Previous studies, in which biocontrol strains related to the genus Alcaligenes had been isolated, report these agents as chitinase producers with a lytic mode of action ( Vaidya et al. 2001 ).”
Optimization of cultural conditions for production of chitinase by Bacillus laterosporous MML2270 isolated from rice rhizosphere soil (2008, background): “and some of them are reported to produce multiple forms of chitinases with different molecular masses ( Vaidya et al., 2001; Wen et al., 2002; Someya et al., 2003; Woo and Park, 2003; Dahiya et al., 2005; Ajit et al., 2006).”
Emerging Role of Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria in Agrobiology (2011, background): “The production of cell wall degrading or lytic enzymes, such as chitinase, chitosanase, b-1, 3-glucanase, b-1, 4-glucanase, b-1, 6-glucanase, proteases, and lipase (Fridlender et al. 1993; Lim and Kim 1995; Dunne et al. 1997; Vaidya et al. 2001; Vivekanathan et al. 2004), degrades fungal cell walls,”
