Profiling of secondary metabolites produced by Pseudomonas sp. isolate PY-122 and PY-142 as biocontrol agent againts fusarium wilt disease on chili.

Fusarium wilt is an important disease on chili plants caused by the fungus Fusarium oxysporum. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of secondary metabolites from 2 Pseudomonad isolates in controlling Fusarium wilt in chili plants and their effect on chili plant growth. This research was conducted in two stages, namely in vitro, which was carried out in the plant health laboratory and greenhouse, Faculty of Agriculture, Universitas Pembangunan Nasional Veteran Jawa Timur, and in vivo which was carried out in chili plantations known to be endemic to Fusarium wilt in Menganti, Gresik.
