Abstract
The soybean cyst nematode (SCN, Heterodera glycines) is the most yield-limiting pathogen in soybeans worldwide. Using chemical pesticides to control this disease is harmful to human and environment. It is urgent to develop environment-friendly nematicides. The aim of this study was to discover novel biocontrol agents on H. glycines control and soybean growth under greenhouse and field conditions Eight Bacillus strains were isolated from soil rhizosphere soils and the stability and efficiency of H. glycines was assessed in greenhouse and field experiments in 2021 and 2022. In particular, the Ba2-6 strain had the highest potential, because it was a biocontrol agent against H. glycines shown to cause 93.85% juvenile mortality. Furthermore, strains Ba 1-7, Ba2-4, and Ba2-6 effectively reduced the number of females and improved the soybean seed number per plant. Based on their morphological, physiological, biochemical and molecular (16 S rRNA) characteristics, the three strains were identified as B. aryabhattai (Ba1-7), B. megatherium (Ba2-4), and B. halotolerans (Ba2-6). The ability of Ba2-6 to induce systemic resistance to H. glycines in soybeans was investigated by the split-root system and real-time quantitative PCR experiments. The results indicated that the Ba2-6 strain induced systemic resistance to suppress the penetration of H. glycines, and enhanced gene expression of PR1, PR3a, PR5, and NPR1-2, involved in the salicylic acid and jasmonic acid pathways. The study suggests that the strains of B. aryabhattai Ba1-7, B. megatherium Ba2-4, and B. halotolerans Ba2-6 can be considered as effective biocontrol agents to control H. glycines. Further, B. halotolerans Ba2-6 not only promotes soybean growth but also enhances resistance to H. glycines by regulating defense-related gene expression and inducing systemic resistance in soybean.

Abstract
As soybean (Glycine max) production continues to expand in the United States and Canada, so do pathogens and pests that directly threaten soybean yield potential and economic returns for farmers. One such pathogen is the soybean cyst nematode (SCN; Heterodera glycines). SCN has traditionally been managed using SCN-resistant cultivars and rotation with nonhost crops, but the interaction of SCN with sudden death syndrome (SDS; caused by Fusarium virguliforme) in the field makes management more difficult. Nematode-protectant seed treatments have become options for SCN and SDS management. The objectives of this study were to evaluate nematode-protectant seed treatments for their effects on (i) early and full season SCN reproduction, (ii) foliar symptoms and root-rot caused by SDS, and (iii) soybean yield across environments accounting for the above factors. Using a standard protocol, field trials were implemented in 13 states and one Canadian province from 2019 to 2021 constituting 51 site-years. Six nematode-protectant seed treatment products were compared with a fungicide + insecticide base treatment and a nontreated check. Initial (at soybean planting) and final (at soybean harvest) SCN egg populations were enumerated, and SCN females were extracted from roots and counted at 30 to 35 days postplanting. Foliar disease index (FDX) and root rot caused by the SDS pathogen were evaluated, and yield data were collected for each plot. No seed treatment offered significant nematode control versus the nontreated check for in-season and full-season nematode response, no matter the initial SCN population or FDX level. Of all treatments, ILEVO (fluopyram) and Saltro (pydiflumetofen) provided more consistent increases in yield over the nontreated check in a broader range of SCN environments, even when FDX level was high.

Long-term benefit contribution of chemical and biological nematicide in coffee nematode management in soil microbial diversity and crop yield perspectives. Microbiol Res 2024; 282:127638. [PMID: 38422858 DOI: 10.1016/j.micres.2024.127638] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/14/2023] [Revised: 01/04/2024] [Accepted: 02/05/2024] [Indexed: 03/02/2024]
Abstract
The plant-parasitic root-knot nematode Meloidogyne exigua causes significant damage and is an important threat in Coffea arabica plantations. The utilization of plant-beneficial microbes as biological control agents against sedentary endoparasitic nematodes has been a longstanding strategy. However, their application in field conditions to control root-knot nematodes and their interaction with the rhizospheric microbiota of coffee plants remain largely unexplored. This study aimed to investigate the effects of biological control agent-based bioproducts and a chemical nematicide, used in various combinations, on the control of root-knot nematodes and the profiling of the coffee plant rhizomicrobiome in a field trial. The commercially available biological products, including Trichoderma asperellum URM 5911 (Quality), Bacillus subtilis UFPEDA 764 (Rizos), Bacillus methylotrophicus UFPEDA 20 (Onix), and nematicide Cadusafos (Rugby), were applied to adult coffee plants. The population of second-stage juveniles (J2) and eggs, as well as plant yield, were evaluated over three consecutive years. However, no significant differences were observed between the control group and the groups treated with bioproducts and the nematicide. Furthermore, the diversity and community composition of bacteria, fungi, and eukaryotes in the rhizosphere soil of bioproduct-treated plants were evaluated. The dominant phyla identified in the 16 S, ITS2, and 18 S communities included Proteobacteria, Acidobacteria, Actinobacteria, Ascomycota, Mortierellomycota, and Cercozoa in both consecutive years. There were no significant differences detected in the Shannon diversity of 16 S, ITS2, and 18 S communities between the years of data. The application of a combination of T. asperellum, B. subtilis, and B. methylotrophicus, as well as the use of Cadusafos alone and in combination with T. asperellum, B. subtilis, and B. methylotrophicus, resulted in a significant reduction (26.08%, 39.13%, and 21.73%, respectively) in the relative abundance of Fusarium spp. Moreover, the relative abundance of Trichoderma spp. significantly increased by 500%, 200%, and 100% at the genus level, respectively, compared to the control treatment. By constructing a co-occurrence network, we discovered a complex network structure among the species in all the bioproduct-treated groups. However, our findings indicate that the introduction of exogenous beneficial microbes into field conditions was unable to modulate the existing microbiota significantly. These findings suggest that the applied bioproducts had no significant impact on the reshaping of the overall microbial diversity in the rhizosphere microbiome but rather recruited selected microrganisms and assured net return to the grower. The results underscore the intricate nature of the rhizosphere microbiome and suggest the necessity for alternate biocontrol strategies and a re-evaluation of agricultural practices to improve nematode control by aligning with the complex ecological interactions in the rhizosphere.

Abstract
Bacillus simplex Sneb45 is a plant-growth-promoting rhizobacterium that promotes soybean growth and systemic resistance to cyst nematode. To investigate transcriptional changes in soybean roots in response to B. simplex Sneb45 treatment, transcriptome analysis and quantitative real-time PCR were conducted to detect and validate the differentially expressed genes (DEGs). In total, 19,109 DEGs were obtained. After B. simplex Sneb545 treatment, 970 and 1265 genes were up- and down-regulated at 5 days post-inoculation (dpi), respectively, and 142 and 47 genes were up- and down-regulated at 10 dpi, respectively, compared with untreated soybean roots. Functional annotation of DEGs indicated that B. simplex Sneb545 regulated soybean growth and defense against cyst nematode possibly through genes related to auxin, gibberellin, and NB-LRR protein. In addition, GO and KEGG enrichment analyses indicated that the DEGs were enriched in metabolism, signal transduction, and plant-pathogen interaction pathways. Moreover, the auxin and gibberellin contents were lower in B. simplex Sneb545-treated soybean roots than in untreated roots at 5 dpi. B. simplex Sneb545 possibly altered the expression of wound-induced protein and NAC transcription factor to regulate soybean growth and defense against cyst nematode. Our study provided deep insights into the alterations in soybean transcriptome after exposure to B. simplex Sneb45 and a theoretical basis for further exploring molecular functions underlying the biological control activity of B. simplex Sneb545.

[PMID: 37762528 PMCID: PMC10531590 DOI: 10.3390/ijms241814226] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2023] [Revised: 08/23/2023] [Accepted: 08/24/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Potassium-solubilizing bacteria are an important microbial group that play a critical role in releasing mineral potassium from potassium-containing minerals, e.g., potassium feldspar. Their application may reduce eutrophication caused by overused potassium fertilizers and facilitate plants to utilize environmental potassium. In this study, a high-efficiency potassium-solubilizing bacterium, named NK851, was isolated from the Astragalus sinicus rhizosphere soil. This bacterium can grow in the medium with potassium feldspar as the sole potassium source, releasing 157 mg/L and 222 mg/L potassium after 3 days and 5 days of incubation, respectively. 16S rDNA sequencing and cluster analysis showed that this strain belongs to Priestia megaterium. Genome sequencing further revealed that this strain has a genome length of 5,305,142 bp, encoding 5473 genes. Among them, abundant genes are related to potassium decomposition and utilization, e.g., the genes involved in adherence to mineral potassium, potassium release, and intracellular trafficking. Moreover, the strong potassium-releasing capacity of NK851 is not attributed to the acidic pH but is attributed to the extracellular potassium feldspar-binding proteins, such as the elongation factor TU and the enolase that contains potassium feldspar-binding cavities. This study provides new information for exploration of the bacterium-mediated potassium solubilization mechanisms.

Abstract
Bacillus megaterium is well known as a plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium, but the relevant molecular mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to elucidate the effects of B. megaterium HT517 on the growth and development of and the control of disease in greenhouse tomato and its mechanism of action. A pot experiment was conducted to determine the effect of B. megaterium on tomato growth, and this experiment included the HT517 group (3.2 × 108 cfu/pot) and the control group (inoculated with the same amount of sterilized suspension). An antagonistic experiment and a plate confrontation experiment were conducted to study the antagonistic effect of B. megaterium and Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry was used to determine the metabolite composition and metabolic pathway of HT517. PacBio+Illumina HiSeq sequencing was utilized for map sequencing of the samples. An in-depth analysis of the functional genes related to the secretion of these substances by functional bacteria was conducted. HT517 could secrete organic acids that solubilize phosphorus, promote root growth, secrete auxin, which that promotes early flowering and fruiting, and alkaloids, which control disease, and reduce the incidence of crown rot by 51.0%. The complete genome sequence indicated that the strain comprised one circular chromosome with a length of 5,510,339 bp (including four plasmids in the genome), and the GC content accounted for 37.95%. Seven genes (pyk, aceB, pyc, ackA, gltA, buk, and aroK) related to phosphate solubilization, five genes (trpA, trpB, trpS, TDO2, and idi) related to growth promotion, eight genes (hpaB, pheS, pheT, ileS, pepA, iucD, paaG, and kamA) related to disease control, and one gene cluster of synthetic surfactin were identified in this research. The identification of molecular biological mechanisms for extracellular secretion by the HT517 strain clarified that its organic acids solubilized phosphorus, that auxin promoted growth, and that alkaloids controlled tomato diseases.

Abstract
One of the most severe soil-borne pathogens in the world is the root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne incognita). Biological control is gaining more importance as environmental awareness increases. Thus, keeping this in mind, a total of 712 bacterial strains were isolated from 117 rhizosphere soil samples and investigated for potential biological control activity against M. incognita. Strain Sneb518 (Clostridium beijerinckii) was identified as having solid biocontrol activity against M. incognita. Sneb518 demonstrated significant inhibition against M. incognita, with J2 mortality reaching 90.73% at 12 h and with eggs hatching at a rate of 6.00% at 24 h, compared to a hatchability level of 29.07% for the control. Additionally, Sneb518 was excellent for enhancing seed germination. The seeds coated with a fermentation broth containing Sneb518 efficiently boosted the germination rate to 88.49%. The effectiveness and stability of C. beijerinckii Sneb518 against M. incognita were then further evaluated in a greenhouse. According to the pot experiment data, Sneb518 considerably (p < 0.05) reduced the number of root galls and egg masses on roots and also significantly (p < 0.05) increased tomato plant growth. C. beijerinckii Sneb518-treated tomato seedlings exhibited 50.26% biocontrol effectiveness compared to the control group. Our results demonstrate that C. beijerinckii Sneb518 can be a potential biological control agent against root-knot nematode disease and a biomass enhancer. This research will give new options for the sustainable control of root-knot nematode disease in tomatoes and other host plants.

Abstract
Plant-parasitic nematodes (PPNs) cause serious damage to agricultural production worldwide. Currently, because of a lack of effective and environmental-friendly chemical nematicides, the use of microbial nematicides has been proposed as an eco-friendly management strategy to control PPNs. A nematicidal bacterium GC-7 was originally isolated from the rice rhizosphere, and was identified as Pseudomonas rhodesiae. Treatment with the fermentation supernatant of GC-7 in vitro showed a highly lethal effect on second-stage juveniles of Meloidogyne graminicola, with the mortality rate increasing to 95.82% at 24 h and egg hatching significantly inhibited, with a hatch inhibition rate of 60.65% at 96 h. The bacterium significantly reduced the level of damage caused by M. graminicola infestations to rice (Oryza sativa) in greenhouse and field experiments. Under greenhouse conditions, the GC-7 culture efficiently reduced the gall index and nematode population in rice roots and soils, as well as inhibited nematode development compared to the control. Under field conditions, application of the GC-7 consistently showed a high biocontrol efficacy against M. graminicola (with a control efficiency of 58.85%) and promoted plant growth. In addition, the inoculation of GC-7 in M. graminicola-infested rice plant fields significantly suppressed final nematode populations in soil under natural conditions. Furthermore, activities of plant defense-related enzymes, peroxidase, polyphenol oxidase, and phenylalanine ammonia-lyase were remarkably increased in plant roots treated with GC-7 compared with roots that were challenge to M. graminicola. Moreover, quantitative real-time PCR analysis showed that GC-7 significantly enhanced the expression of defense genes (PR1a, WRKY45, JaMYB, AOS2, ERF1, and ACS1) related to salicylic acid, jasmonic acid, and ethylene signaling pathways in rice roots after inoculation with GC-7 at different levels. The results indicated that GC-7 could be an effective biological component in the integrated management of M. graminicola infecting rice.

Abstract
Pochonia chlamydosporia is widely applied in many countries as a biocontrol fungus against parasitic nematodes in plants. In a field experiment, the combined use of Bacillus nematocida B16 increased the biocontrol efficiency of P. chlamydosporia ZK7 against Meloidogyne incognita. Further study indicated that the colonization of P. chlamydosporia ZK7 in the rhizosphere soil and the roots of tomatoes was significantly higher in the combined use group than in the control group. Gas chromatography was conducted to determine the effects of signaling substances. Five compounds, hexanal, (E)-2-hexenal, furfural, benzaldehyde, and 2-nonanone, were found to be highly altered in the volatile compounds produced in the soil under the combined application. The changes in benzaldehyde and 2-nonanone were the main factors that resulted in an increase in the colonization of fungi P. chlamydosporia ZK7 in the tomato roots. Furfural was the main volatile substance that affected the colonization of fungi P. chlamydosporia ZK7 in the soil. The combined use of B. nematocida B16 and P. chlamydosporia ZK7 altered the volatile ranges and resulted in increased colonization of biocontrol fungi and improved biocontrol efficiency against nematodes. This combined model could be used to promote the ability of biocontrol fungi to control root-knot nematodes.

Evaluation of Scopoletin from Penicillium janthinellum Snef1650 for the Control of Heterodera glycines in Soybean. Life (Basel) 2021; 11:life11111143. [PMID: 34833019 PMCID: PMC8625814 DOI: 10.3390/life11111143] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2021] [Revised: 10/19/2021] [Accepted: 10/21/2021] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Soybean cyst nematode (SCN) (Heterodera glycines Ichinohe) is responsible for causing a major soybean disease globally. The fungal strain Penicillium janthinellum Snef1650 was evaluated against H. glycines. However, the effective determinants of the P. janthinellum strain are unknown. By performing pot experiments, a functioning compound was isolated from P. janthinellum Snef1650 through organic solvent extraction, semi-preparative HPLC, Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography, and silica gel column chromatography, and the isolated compound was identified to be scopoletin through 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and HPLC–MS. The pot experiments indicated that the treatment of soybean seeds with scopoletin drastically reduced the SCN population. The field experiments performed in 2017 and 2018 revealed that scopoletin decreased over 43.7% juveniles in the roots and over 61.55% cysts in the soil. Scopoletin treatment also promoted soybean growth and improved its yield, with an increase in plot yield by >5.33%. Scopoletin obtained from P. janthinellum Snef1650 could be used as an anti-H. glycines biocontrol agent.
