Effective control of Colletotrichum diseases usually involves the use of one or combination of the following: resistant cultivars, cultural control, chemical control, and biological control using antagonistic microorganisms. The aim of the present work was to investigate in vitro the interaction of Trichoderma harzianum, Gliocladium roseum, Bacillus subtilis, and two Streptomyces species: S. noursei and S. natalensis with C. acutatum and C. gloeosporioides from pear fruit, to better understand their possible activity as biocontrol agents. The results of this study identify T. harzianum, G. roseum, B. subtilis, S. natalensis and S. noursei as a promising candidates for further testing against anthracnose disease in fruit.
