Research progress of the biocontrol mechanism and agricultural application of Pythium oligandrum
As an important biocontrol microorganism,Pythium oligandrum has broad-spectrum,efficient and environmentally-friendly control properties,which can also promote the crop growth and increase the yield,providing a new research direction for the green agricultural production,environmental protection ecology and sustainable development.Firstly,this article outlined the biological characteristics of Pythium oligandrum and its biocontrol mechanisms against plant diseases and insect pests,including competition,re-parasitism and secretion of antibiotic substances,as well as the role of Pythium oligandrum in promoting the plant growth and inducing the plant resistance in its interaction with plants.Secondly,the application of Pythium oligandrum in agricultural production was discussed and prospected,including its actual effects in field trials and its potential contribution to sustainable agricultural development.Overall,Pythium oligandrum has important application prospects as a potential microbial pesticide.It is conducive to reducing the use of chemical pesticides,promoting the process of green biological control of plant diseases,and promoting sustainable agricultural development.
