Advantages of biological control methods against phytopathogenic fungi in the soil environment

Abstract

            Soil is a complex ecosystem and is considered a favorable environment for the settlement of living organisms, including fungi. Therefore, all representatives of the fungal world are found in the soil. In the formation of fungal biota in the soil, both plant residues in the soil and vegetation growing or cultivated in the soil are of extremely important importance. It has been found out that, in particular, cultivated vegetation has a significant impact on the species diversity and numerical composition of the mycobiota formed in the soil. At the same time, soil types also play a significant role in the structural organization of mycobiota.
