AbstractSoil-borne pathogen Setophoma terrestris is the causal agent of pink root of onion, one of the most challenging diseases in onion production. Conventional approaches for managing the disease like solarization, soil fumigation and crop rotation have not been proven effective enough. In this work, we evaluated the biocontrol capacity of Bacillus subtilis ALBA01 (BsA01) against S. terrestris, in a highly susceptible onion cultivar, both under greenhouse and field conditions. Disease incidence and severity were evaluated together with growth, photosynthesis among other physiological variables and yield parameters. When compared with plants infected with the pathogen, those plants co-inoculated with BsA01 showed significantly less damage and levels of biocontrol above 50%. With regard to physiological parameters, plants challenged with S terrestris and inoculated with BsA01 performed as well as the control non-infected plants revealing a growth promotion effect of BsA01 on onion plants.

Abstract The beet cyst nematode (BCN) was one of the first discovered plant parasitic nematodes. Heterodera schachtii was observed in 1859 in Halle in Central Germany by the botanist Herman Schacht and described later by Adolf Schmidt in 1871, who named this cyst nematode species after its original discoverer. Partly due to the lack of knowledge about the effect of sugar beet monocultures on the population build-up of BCN, this nematode had a devastating impact on sugar production in 1876 that led to the shutdown of 24 sugar factories in Germany. This chapter discusses the economic importance, distribution, host range, damage symptoms, biology and life cycle, interactions with other nematodes and pathogens, recommended integrated management, and management optimization of H. schachtii. Future research requirements and future developments are also mentioned.
