Production of the biocontrol agent Pantoea agglomerans strain CPA-2 using commercial products and by-products.

The aim of this paper was to find the nitrogen and carbon sources that provide maximum biomass production of strain CPA-2 of the biocontrol agent P. agglomerans and minimum cost of media, whilst maintaining biocontrol efficacy. To reduce the cost of media, commercial products and byproducts were tested. P. agglomerans can be produced using a combination of nitrogen sources such as yeast extract (5 g litre-1) and dry beer yeast (10 g litre-1) with inexpensive carbohydrates such as sucrose (10 g litre-1) and molasses (20 g litre-1), respectively, maintaining the efficacy of the biocontrol agent against Penicillium digitatum and P. italicum on oranges. The results obtained in this study could be used to provide a reliable basis for a scale-up of this fermentation process to an industrial level.
