Screening of lactic acid bacteria as biocontrol against (Colletotrichum capsici) on chilli Bangi

Chilli (Capsicum annuum L.) is one of the major crops, vegetables grown in Malaysia and belongs to family Solanaceae. Pepper is suffering from many illnesses caused by fungi, bacteria and virus. The fungal disease is both seed and air borne and affect the germination of seeds and plant vital to a gr...
