AB The use of organic soil amendments to enhance the suppressiveness of natural soils has beenproposed as an additional strategy to control plant diseases. Avocado is one of the mainsubtropical crops in southern Spain and white root rot, caused by the fungus Rosellinia necatrix,one of the most serious problems. Previous studies on this pathosystem have shown thatapplication of composted almond shells caused a change in soil microbial communities of bothpopulation and functional level. In this work, evaluation of the suppressive capacity of almondshells amended soils have performed. “In vitro” assays using two different susceptible plants,Persea americana (avocado) and Triticum aestivum (wheat), indicate a clear relationshipbetween soil microbial communities and suppressiveness. Addition of composted almond shellsto the agricultural soil resulted in increased suppressiveness against R. necatrix, directlyassociated to microbial components, since suppressiveness was reduced when the soil waspasteurized, and partially recovered when the pasteurized soil was complemented with fieldsoil. Different strains producing antifungal compounds were correlated with suppressiveness bymolecular approaches.
