The present invention relates to a composition comprising at least one biological control agent selected from the group consisting of Bacillus subtilis AQ713 (NRRL Accession No. B-21661) and Bacillus subtilis AQ30002 (NRRL Accession No. B-50421), and at least one fungicide (I) which is difenoconazole in a synergistically effective amount wherein the synergistic weight ratio of fungicide (I) is in the range of 1:0.0001 to 1:1. The present invention relates to the use of this composition as well as a method for reducing overall damage of plants and plant parts. The use of a biological control agent containing composition of the invention reduces the need for the use of synthetic insecticides and fungicides, the use of which is associated with the development of resistance, and environmental and health problems.
