STUDIES ON A METHOD FOR QUANTITATIVE DETECTING OF THE POPULATION OF PSEUDOMONAS SOLANACEARUM BY PHAGE TECHNIQUE
Abstract: The present paper deals with the phaga technique to quantitative determinate the survival of causing bacteria of ginger wilt(Pseudomonas solanacearum)in soil. Results show that the bacteria in inoculated soil could recover to 57.4% at 10~3 CFU/g soil. The living bacterial cells,even at 10~2CFU/g soil,could be detected. The phage technique is a sensitive, rapid and simple method.
