Pathogenic and Beneficial Microorganisms in Soilless Cultures [PDF]
Agronomy for Sustainable Development, 2011 Soilless cultures were originally developed to control soilborne diseases. Soilless cultures provide several advantages for growers such as greater production of crops, reduced energy consumption, better control of growth and independence of soil quality. However, diseases specific to hydroponics have been reported.
