Abstract Utilization of biocontrol agents is a sustainable approach to reduce plant diseases caused by fungal pathogens. In the present study, we tested effect candidate fungus Aureobasidium pullulans (De Bary) G. Armaud on strawberry under in vitro and vivo conditions control crown rot, root rot grey mould Phytophthora cactorum (Lebert Cohn) Botrytis cinerea Pers, respectively. A dual plate confrontation assay showed that mycelial growth P. B. was reduced 33–48% when challenged A. as...
