Soil Microbiome Is More Heterogeneous in Organic Than in Conventional Farming System.

abstract：:Clonostachys rosea is a biological control agent against Fusarium graminearum in small grain cereals and maize. Infections with F. graminearum do not only reduce the yield but, due to the production of mycotoxins, also affect the entire value chain of food and feed. In addition, production of other secondary metabolit...
