The agricultural compositions disclosed herein comprise mixtures of mutualistic beneficial fungi such as Laccaria bicolor and Piriformispora indica, and bacterial strains of Pseudomonas.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A composition comprising a Laccaria bicolor strain and a Piriformospora indica strain, wherein the Laccaria bicolor strain is present in the composition at about 85-115 cells per gram. 2. The composition of claim 1 , wherein said composition includes about 100 fungal cells per gram of the composition. 3. The composition of claim 1 , further comprising a Pseudomonas fluorescens strain. 4. The composition of claim 3 , wherein said Pseudomonas fluorescens strain is the strain designated as GM41 (ATCC PTA-122788). 5. The composition of claim 3 , wherein said Pseudomonas fluorescens strain is present in the composition at a concentration between 1×10 2 CFU/mL and 1.6×10 6 CFU/mL. 6. The composition of claim 5 , wherein said composition is a liquid-formulation and further comprises components suitable for plant growth. 7. The composition of claim 1 , further comprising a binding agent selected from the group consisting of pullulan, paraffin, pitch and calcium nitrate. 8. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the Piriformospora indica strain is present in the composition at about 50 cells per gram. 9. A method comprising treating plants with the composition according to claim 1 .
