Taking banana continuous planting soil with high banana fusarium wilt disease incidence as a test site, we examined the effect of lime and ammonium carbonate fumigation coupled with bio-organic fertilizer on the suppression of banana fusarium wilt disease and the structure and composition of bacterial community, using real-time quantitative PCR and high-throughput sequencing. The results showed that the disease incidence was reduced by 13.3% and 21.

In addition, biofertilizer was applied after soil fumigation and population of Fusarium oxysporum, Fusarium wilt disease control efficiency and plant biomass were determined in the cucumber and watermelon continuous cropping soil. The results showed that the population of F.

The fertilizers included chemical fertilizer (CF), cow manure compost (CM), pig manure compost (PM) and bio-organic fertilizer (BIO). The banana soil microflora was invested using plate-counting method and culture-dependent polymerase chain reaction denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis method (CD PCR-DGGE).
