The Biocontrol Wheel – Now and What next?
Paul and McSpadden Gardener (2006)
1. Gene induction – PGPR mediated induction of ISR in host plant species
2. Genes transfer – genes from potential biocontrol agents transferred into PGPR
3. Molecules for biocontrol – direct application or signal molecules to elicit BO

1. What type of function is targeted?
2. When is it required to perform?
3. In what type of environment?
• Soil / rhizosphere / endosphere
4. Mode of delivery required to be effective?
For Microbial inoculants to be successful……
Soil microbiome, general or rhizosphere-specific, plays a key role in the successful
application and functioning of microbial inoculant(s)
