Serratia plymuthica strain A30, BCCM Deposit No. LMG P-26170, its analogues or functionally equivalent strains thereto, provides a biological control agent against plant disease caused by a bacterial pathogen, particularly a soft rot, e.g. blackleg. The pathogen is Dickeya spp., Pectobacterium spp., and Ralstonia spp.; including Dickeya sp. biovar 3 strain. The deposited strain and its variants are formulated in an agriculturally or horticulturally acceptable diluent, carrier, filler or adjuvant. Plants or plant parts, particularly potato tubers, containing the deposited strain provide useful propagation material free of soft rot or blackleg disease. Cepa A30 de Serrat/a plumuthica, depósito en BCCM No. LMG P-26170, sus cepas análogas o funcionalmente equivalentes a la misma, provee un agente de control biológico contra enfermedad de las plantas causada por un patógeno bacteriano, particularmente una pudrición blanda, v.gr., pie negro; el patógeno es Dickeya spp., Pectobacterium spp. y Raístonia spp.; incluyendo la cepa de biovariedad 3 de Dickeya sp; la cepa depositada y sus variantes se formulan en un diluyente, vehículo, llenador o adyuvante aceptable en agricultura u horticultura; las plantas o partes de plantas, particularmente tubérculos de papa, que contienen la cepa depositada proveen material de propagación útil libre de pudrición blanda o enfermedad de pie negro.
