INTRODUCTION
Soybean [Glycine max. (L.) Merril] belonging to family Leguminaceae is designatedas ‘miracle bean’, established its potential as an industrially vital and viable oilseedcrop in many areas of India. Soybeans are the world’s largest source of animalprotein feed and the second largest source of vegetable oil (Patil, 2014). Globalarea and production of soybean is 111.27 m ha and 276.4 million tonnesrespectively (Anonymous, 2013).
Bacterial pustule caused by Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. glycines is one of themajor bacterial diseases of soybean. The disease occurs typically on soybeanfoliageand symptoms include small, pale green spots with elevated pustules, whichmay develop into large necrotic lesions leading to premature defoliation (Narvel etal., 2001).Yield losses of up to 40% have been reported in certain parts of theworld (Prathuangwong and Amnuaykit, 1987). The control of bacterial pustule hasbeen difficult due to the high variability of the pathogen, high ability to survive indiverse environments and its extremely wide host range.
Antagonism is the balance wheel of nature. Where there is life there is antagonism.Bio-control or bio-management of pest and pathogen relies on this very fact ofnature. In the bio management, different groups of organisms from viruses, bacteria,
fungi and insects, depending on the target organisms are put into service for
management of diseases. Pseudomonas have shown effectiveness in the bio-
management of different crops. Among the bio-control bacteria, fluorescent
Pseudomonas have become the bacterium of the choice for its versatility and
ability to contain a large number of plant pathogens in diverse target
environments.Bacterial antagonists have the twin advantage of faster multiplication
and higher rhizosphere competence hence, P. fluorescens have been successfully
used for biological control of several plant pathogens (Ramamoorthy et al., 2002)
and biological control using PGPR strains especially from the genus Pseudomonas
is an effective substitute for chemical pesticides to suppress plant diseases (Compant
et al., 2005). Their applicability as bio control agents has drawn wide attention
because of the production of secondary metabolites such as siderophore, antibiotics,
volatile compounds, HCN, enzymes and phytohormones (Dewangan et al., 2014)
However, chemical control of plant diseases is usually expensive and may have a
negative impact on the environment and on public health. Biological control makesmanagement of plant diseases less dependent on the use of high-risk chemicalsand it is environmentally friendly
The objective of this investigation is to assess the antibacterial activity of theantagonists Fluorescent Pseudomonas against Xanthomonas axonopodis pv.glycines causing bacterial pustule in soyabean under in vitro and in vivo conditionboth.

NSave Nature to Survive QUARTERLY
Soybean bacterial pustule disease caused byXanthomonas axonopodis pv.glycines is oneof the most important diseases of soybean. Invitro evaluation, among the sixteen isolates,Pf 18 was found to be most significantly
effective in inhibiting the growth of the
pathogen and with inhibition zone of 37.33
mm, 41.00 mm and 46.00 mm after 24, 48
and 72 hrs of incubation period, respectively.
This was followed by Pf 34 (34.33 mm), Pf 33
(37.00 mm) and Pf 35 (43.00 mm) after 24,
48 and 72 hrs of incubation period,
respectively. Bio efficacy of Fluorescent
Pseudomonas was evaluated under field
condition. Highest per cent disease control of
pustule was recorded for variety Monatta
(17.80%) inhibition followed by NRC-7
(15.10%) inhibition after foliar application of
Fluorescent Pseudomonas. Different tested
strains of Fluorescent Pseudomonas bio agent,
Pf 18 was found to be most significantly
effective in inhibiting the growth of the
pathogen after 24, 48 and 72 hrs of incubation
period, respectively.

IN VITRO INVESTIGATION ON BIOCONTROL
Well diffusion method
The antagonistic activity of sixteen isolates of FluorescentPseudomonas towards Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. glycineswas tested by the well diffusion technique suggested by Zellerand Brulez (1987) and Vignolo et al. (1993). A suspension ofXanthomonas axonopodis pv. glycines prepared from anovernight shaken culture, was spread over the surface ofplates containing King’s B agar medium. After drying, 0.05 mlof an overnight culture of Fluorescent Pseudomonas waspipetted into 8 mm well. Plates were then incubated at 25±20Cfor 1day and examined for inhibition zones. There were fourreplicates for each treatment. The diameter of zone of inhibitionwas measured at different intervals viz., 24, 48 and 72 hrs.Finally data were statistically analyzed by using completelyrandomized design (CRD).
Bio efficacy of Fluorescent Pseudomonas against bacterialpustule under natural field condition
Three varieties viz., Panjab-1, Monatta and NRC-7 wereselected for studies on bio efficacy of FluorescentPseudomonas against bacterial pustule under natural fieldcondition. Single spray of isolates Pf 18 (FluorescentPseudomonas) was given at the time of first appearance of thesymptoms, Selected on the basis of in vitro performance.Fluorescent Pseudomonas suspension (@ 108cfu/ml) (Ran etal 2005) was thoroughly sprayed on the foliage with the helpof automizer. The treatment was continued until the finedroplets of isolates Pf 18 appeared on the foliage (Mew andRosales, 1986). The disease intensity/index was recorded after10 days of spray. Per cent disease control (PDC) was calculatedby the following formula:
Data of five randomly infected plants were recorded in eachplot after initiation of the disease, than plant is tagged. Per
plant total number of leaves and infected number of leavescounted before and after foliar spray.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
In vitro evaluation of Fluorescent Pseudomonas againstXanthomonas axonopodis pv. glycines
Antagonistic activity of sixteen isolates of Fluorescent
Pseudomonas were evaluated against Xathomonas
axonopodis pv. glycines under in vitro condition. All the
bacterial isolates significantly inhibited the growth of the test
pathogen. Among the sixteen isolates, Pf 18 was found to be
most significantly effective in inhibiting the growth of the
pathogen and with inhibition zone of 37.33 mm, 41.00 mm
and 46.00 mm after 24, 48 and 72 hrs of incubation period
respectively. This was followed by Pf 34 (34.33 mm) Pf 33
(37.00 mm) and Pf 35 (43.00 mm) after 24, 48 and 72 hrs of
incubation period respectively. Isolates such as Pf 25 (30.00
and 35.33 mm), Pf 33 (31.00 and 37.00 mm), Pf 34 (34.33
and 36.67 mm) and Pf 35 (30.00 and 36.33 mm) were at par
with Pf 18 (37.33 and 41.00 mm) after 24 and 48 hrs of
incubation respectively. Similarly isolated such as Pf 22 (36.33
mm), Pf 25 (39.33 mm), Pf 27 (39.00 mm) and Pf 33 (41.33
mm), Pf 34 (41.00 mm) and Pf 35 (43.00 mm) were at par to Pf
18 (46.00 mm) after 72 hrs of incubation. Least inhibition
zone was achieved by Pf 4 (8.00, 9.33 and 12.33 mm) followed
by Pf 36 (17.33, 20.33 and 23.67 mm) after 24 ,48 and 72 hrs
of incubation period respectively. The results are coincided
with the findings of Gangwar and Sinha (2012). They evaluated
seven isolates of Pseudomonas fluorescens and found that all
the isolates significantly reducing disease severity over the
control. Manmeet and Thind (2002) reported that
Pseudomonas fluorescens was inhibitory to the testXanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae. Kumar et al. (2009) evaluatedfour bioagents against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (BLBof rice) and results revealed that among bioagent Pseudomonas

fluorescens and Trichoderma harzianum restricted maximumgrowth of pathogen. Raut et al. (2010) observed thatPseudomonas fluorescens (Pf-1) significantly inhibited thegrowth of Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. malvacearum(Bacterial blight of cotton). Workers like Giri et al. (2008) andYenjerappa et al. (2013) observed almost similar type of findings.
Bio efficacy of Fluorescent Pseudomonas against bacterialpustule under field condition
Bio efficacy of Fluorescent Pseudomonas was evaluatedagainst bacterial pustule of soybean under field condition. Itwas revealed from the experimental data presented in the Table2 that highest inhibition of pustule was recorded for varietyMonatta with (17.80%) inhibition followed by NRC-7, (15.10%)inhibition after foliar application of Fluorescent Pseudomonas.Least inhibition was found in case of Punjab-1 (12.07%). Itwas also revealed from the data that only a single variety,Monatta was least infected with the disease. Hence we maysay that variety, Monatta is the best over two other varieties.The results are coincided with the findings of Sain (2010) whoreported that Pseudomonas fluorescens significantly inhibitedthe pustules in soybean plant under field condition. Lodha(2001) recorded inhibition of bacterial blight intensity andincrement of seed yield in cluster bean after foliar applicationof bacterial antagonists. Ganeshan and Kumar (2005)suggested that application of Pseudomonas fluorescensreduces severity of various diseases. The results are inagreement with the findings of workers like Manonmani et al.(2007), Singh and Singh (2007), Raut et al. (2010) andYenjerappa et al. (2013).
