Abstract

The objective of this work was to evaluate the production of 55 bacterial strains isolated from genotypes of Paspalum sp. The evaluation of in vitro siderophore production was performed using the CAS medium. Of the 55 bacterial isolates evaluated, about 40 isolates were grown in solid CAS medium. The production capacity of siderophores can be an alternative to the use of chemical pesticides. In the next tests the effect of this in the biocontrol of the main pathogens, as well as their capacity to promote plant growth in tropical pastures
