Soil-borne pathogens from the genera Verticillium, Fusarium, Sclerotinia, Rhizoctonia and Pythium, cause great economic losses in crop production in both, greenhouse and open field production. Control of these pathogens is difficult because of its polyphagous nature and the lack of adequate methods for pathogen suppression which contributed to spread of soil borne pathogens in all major vegetable production areas in Serbia. Soil disinfection is the most effective way to control these pathogens, and for this purpose methyl bromide was successfully used for many years. In 1992, methyl bromide was listed as an ozonedepleting substance under the Montreal Protocol - an international treaty to protect the ozone layer. Today, numerous researches are involved in finding methyl bromide alternatives for suppression of soilborne plant pathogens. Consequently, there is an increasing interest in the introduction of antagonistic bacteria and possible exploitation of essential oil for management of soil-borne pathogens.
