Novel mandelic acid derivatives containing piperazinyls as potential candidate fungicides against Monilinia fructicola: Design, synthesis and mechanism study. Bioorg Chem 2024; 151:107647. [PMID: 39024805 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioorg.2024.107647] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2024] [Revised: 07/12/2024] [Accepted: 07/14/2024] [Indexed: 07/20/2024]
Abstract
Brown rot of stone fruit, a disease caused by the ascomycete fungus Monilinia fructicola, has caused significant losses to the agricultural industry. In order to explore and discover potential fungicides against M. fructicola, thirty-one novel mandelic acid derivatives containing piperazine moieties were designed and synthesized based on the amide skeleton. Among them, target compound Z31 exhibited obvious in vitro antifungal activity with the EC50 value of 11.8 mg/L, and significant effects for the postharvest pears (79.4 % protective activity and 70.5 % curative activity) at a concentration of 200 mg/L. Antifungal activity for the target compounds was found to be significantly improved by the large steric hindrance of the R1 groups and the electronegative of the piperazines in the molecular structure, according to a three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D-QSAR) analysis. Further mechanism studies have demonstrated that the compound Z31 can disrupt cell membrane integrity, resulting in increased membrane permeability, release of intracellular electrolytes, and affect the normal growth of hyphae. Additional, morphological study also indicated that Z31 may disrupt the integrity of the membrane by inducing generate excess endogenous reactive oxygen species (ROS) and resulting in the peroxidation of cellular lipids, which was further verified by the detection of malondialdehyde (MDA) content. These studies have provided the basis for the creation of novel fungicides to prevent brown rot in stone fruits.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To discover more efficient agricultural antimicrobial agents, a series of new quinazoline derivatives containing both a piperazine linker and the N-acetyl moiety were prepared and assessed for their antibacterial and antifungal activities. RESULTS All the target compounds were characterized by 1H and 13C NMR as well as high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS), and the chemical structure of the most potent compound E19 incorporating a 4-trifluoromethoxy substituent was clearly confirmed via single crystal X-ray diffraction measurements. The bioassay results indicated that some compounds possessed notable inhibitory effects in vitro against the bacterium Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola (Xoc). For example, compound E19 had an EC50 (effective concentration for 50% activity) value of 7.1 μg/mL towards this pathogen, approximately 15- and 10-fold more effective than the commercial bactericides thiodiazole copper and bismerthiazol (EC50 = 110.2 and 72.4 μg/mL, respectively). Subsequently, the mechanistic studies showed that compound E19 likely exerted its antibacterial efficacies by altering the cell morphology, increasing the permeability of bacterial cytoplasmic membrane, suppressing the production of bacterial extracellular polysaccharides and the extracellular enzyme activities (amylase and cellulase), and blocking the swimming motility of Xoc. Moreover, the proteomic analysis revealed that compound E19 could reduce the bacterial flagellar biosynthesis and decrease the flagellar motility by down-regulating the expression of the related differential proteins. CONCLUSION Compound E19 exhibited good potential for further development as a bactericide candidate for control of Xoc. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
A total of 32 novel sulfoximines bearing cyanoguanidine and nitroguanidine moieties were designed and synthesized by a rational molecule design strategy. The bioactivities of the title compounds were evaluated and the results revealed that some of the target compounds possessed excellent antifungal activities against six agricultural fungi, including Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, Fusarium graminearum, Phytophthora capsici, Botrytis cinerea, Rhizoctonia solani, and Pyricularia grisea. Among them, compounds 8e1 and 8e4 exhibited significant efficacy against P. grisea with EC50 values of 2.72 and 2.98 μg/mL, respectively, which were much higher than that of commercial fungicides boscalid (47.95 μg/mL). Interestingly, in vivo assays determined compound 8e1 possessed outstanding activity against S. sclerotiorum with protective and curative effectiveness of 98 and 95.6% at 50 μg/mL, which were comparable to those of boscalid (93.2, 91.9%). The further preliminary mechanism investigation disclosed that compound 8e1 could damage the structure of the cell membrane of S. sclerotiorum, increase its permeability, and suppress its growth. Overall, the findings enhanced that these novel sulfoximine derivatives could be potential lead compounds for the development of new fungicides.

Abstract
Based on our previous research, a 3D-QSAR model (q2=0.51, ONC=5, r2=0.982, F=271.887, SEE=0.052) was established to predict the inhibitory effects of triazole Schiff base compounds on Fusarium graminearum, and its predictive ability was also confirmed through the statistical parameters. According to the results of the model design, 30 compounds with superior bioactivity compared to the template molecule 4 were obtained. Seven of these compounds (DES2-6, DES9-10) with improved biological activity and readily available raw materials were successfully synthesized. Their structures were confirmed through HRMS, NMR, and single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis (DES-5). The bioactivity of the final products was investigated through an in vitro antifungal assay. There was little difference in the EC50 values between the experimental and predicted values of the model, demonstrating the reliability of the model. Especially, DES-3 (EC50=9.915 mg/L) and DES-5 (EC50=9.384 mg/L) exhibited better inhibitory effects on Fusarium graminearum compared to the standard drug (SD) triadimenol (EC50=10.820 mg/L). These compounds could serve as potential new fungicides for future research. The interaction between the final products and isocitrate lyase (ICL) was investigated through molecular docking. Compounds with R groups that have a higher electron-donating capacity were found to be biologically active.

Abstract
In the search for novel succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor (SDHI) fungicides to control Rhizoctonia solani, thirty-five novel pyrazole-4-carboxamides bearing either an oxime ether or an oxime ester group were designed and prepared based on the strategy of molecular hybridization, and their antifungal activities against five plant pathogenic fungi were also investigated. The results indicated that the majority of the compounds containing oxime ether demonstrated outstanding in vitro antifungal activity against R. solani, and some compounds also displayed pronounced antifungal activities against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and Botrytis cinerea. Particularly, compound 5e exhibited the most promising antifungal activity against R. solani with an EC50 value of 0.039 μg/mL, which was about 20-fold better than that of boscalid (EC50 = 0.799 μg/mL) and 4-fold more potent than fluxapyroxad (EC50 = 0.131 μg/mL). Moreover, the results of the detached leaf assay showed that compound 5e could suppress the growth of R. solani in rice leaves with significant protective efficacies (86.8%) at 100 μg/mL, superior to boscalid (68.1%) and fluxapyroxad (80.6%), indicating promising application prospects. In addition, the succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) enzymatic inhibition assay revealed that compound 5e generated remarkable SDH inhibition (IC50 = 2.04 μM), which was obviously more potent than those of boscalid (IC50 = 7.92 μM) and fluxapyroxad (IC50 = 6.15 μM). Furthermore, SEM analysis showed that compound 5e caused a remarkable disruption to the characteristic structure and morphology of R. solani hyphae, resulting in significant damage. The molecular docking analysis demonstrated that compound 5e could fit into the identical binding pocket of SDH through hydrogen bond interactions as well as fluxapyroxad, indicating that they had a similar antifungal mechanism. The density functional theory and electrostatic potential calculations provided useful information regarding electron distribution and electron transfer, which contributed to understanding the structural features and antifungal mechanism of the lead compound. These findings suggested that compound 5e could be a promising candidate for SDHI fungicides to control R. solani, warranting further investigation.

Abstract
In this paper, a series of novel 1,2,4-trizaole-substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives with a dual thioether moiety were constructed. The synthetic compounds were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, HRMS, and single crystal diffraction. The antimicrobial activities of title compounds against fungi (Pyricutaria oryzae Cav., Phomopsis sp., Botryosphaeria dothidea, cucumber Botrytis cinerea, tobacco Botrytis cinerea, blueberry Botrytis cinerea) and bacteria (Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola, Xoc; Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri, Xac) revealed these compounds possessed excellent antibacterial activity through mycelial growth rate method and turbidity method, respectively. Among them, compounds 7a, 7d, 7g, 7k, 7l, and 7n had the antibacterial inhibition rate of 90.68, 97.86, 93.61, 97.70, 97.26, and 92.34%, respectively. The EC50 values of 7a, 7d, 7g, 7k, 7l, and 7n were 58.31, 48.76, 58.50, 40.11, 38.15, and 46.99 μg/mL, separately, superior to that of positive control pesticide thiodiazole copper (104.26 μg/mL). The molecular docking simulation of compound 7l and glutathione s-transferase also confirmed its good activity. The in vivo bioassay toward Xac infected citrus leaves was also performed to evaluate the potential of compounds as efficient antibacterial reagent. Further study of antibacterial mechanism was also carried out, including extracellular polysaccharide production, permeability of bacterial membrane, and scanning electron microscope observations. The excellent antibacterial activities of these compounds provided a strong support for its application for preventing and control plant diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Plant bacterial infections and plant viruses seriously affect the yield and quality of crops. Based on the various activities of tryptanthrin, a series of tryptanthrin analogues bearing F and piperazine moieties were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their biological activities against three plant bacteria and tobacco mosaic virus (TMV). RESULTS Bioassay results indicated that compounds 6a-6l displayed excellent antibacterial activities in vitro and 6a-6c and 6g exhibited better antiviral activities against TMV than commercial ribavirin. In particular, 6b showed the most effect on Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) with a half-maximal effective concentration (EC50 ) of 1.26 μg mL-1 , compared with the commercial pesticide bismerthiazol (BT; EC50 = 34.3 μg mL-1 ) and thiodiazole copper (TC; EC50 = 73.3 μg mL-1 ). Meanwhile, 6a also had the best antiviral activity at 500 μg mL-1 for curative, protection, and inactivation purposes, compared with ribavirin in vivo. CONCLUSION Compound 6b could cause changes in bacterial morphology, induce the accumulation of reactive oxygen species, promote apoptosis of bacterial cells, inhibit the formation of biofilm, and block the growth of Xoo cells. Proteomic analysis revealed major differences in the bacterial secretory system pathways T2SS and T6SS, which inhibited membrane transport. Molecular docking revealed that 6a and 6g could interact with TMV coat protein preventing virus assembly. These results suggest that tryptanthrin analogues bearing F and piperazine moieties could be promising candidate agents for antibacterial and antiviral use in agricultural production. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Phytopathogens cause various diseases by parasitizing crops, reducing crop yield and resulting in substantial economic losses in agricultural production. A novel type isolated from the perennial herbaceous Peganum harmala L. seeds, β-carboline alkaloids pegaharine A (PA), has become a hot topic in developing plant-originated green pesticides owing to their significant physiological activities. RESULTS A scalable bioinspired total synthesis of PA is accomplished in the present work. The systematical biological assay study showed that PA exhibited moderate inhibitory activity against nine tested plant pathogenic fungi and showed significant inhibitory activity in vitro against the three tested plant pathogenic bacteria. Most noteworthy is the inhibitory rates of PA on Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), X. oryzae pv. oryzicola (Xoc) and X. axonopodis pv. citri (Xac) of 93.6%, 92.1% and 86.1%, respectively, which are better than the control drug, bismerthiazol (63.4%, 61.2% and 53.7% at 100 μg mL-1 concentration). Furthermore, the EC50 value of PA against Xoo, Xoc and Xac was 52.2, 60.0 and 65.1 μg mL-1 , respectively, superior to 72.9, 64.2 and 70.1 μg mL-1 of the control drug. Moreover, the anti-Xoo mechanistic studies revealed that PA exerted its antibacterial effects by increasing the permeability of the bacterial membrane, reducing the extracellular polysaccharide content and inducing morphological changes in bacterial cells. CONCLUSION A novel β-carboline alkaloid, PA, was prepared by biomimetic total synthesis. Its significant antibacterial activity was closely related to the permeation of bacterial cell membranes, which was confirmed by anti-Xoo mechanistic studies. More importantly, the structure could be regarded as a model for developing novel bactericides. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
A total of 35 new quinazolinone derivatives bearing the 1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole scaffold and the 4-piperidinyl linker were designed, prepared, and assessed for their antibacterial and antifungal activities. Among these derivatives, the chemical structure of compound F5 was clearly verified via single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The experimental results revealed that some of the compounds displayed good even excellent inhibitory effects toward the tested phytopathogenic bacteria. For instance, compound F33 was capable of strongly inhibiting Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) in vitro with an EC50 (half-maximal effective concentration) value of 4.1 μg/mL, about 16-fold more effective than the commercialized bactericide bismerthiazol. Significantly, this compound also effectively suppressed the proliferation of Xoo in the potted rice plants, showing a good in vivo protection efficacy of 47.6% at 200 μg/mL. Subsequently, the antibacterial mechanisms of compound F33 were explored by means of different biophysical and biochemical methods. Last, some of the compounds were found to possess relatively good antifungal activities in vitro, like compound F19 against Phytophthora nicotianae (with an inhibition rate of 67.2% at 50 μg/mL). In a word, the current experimental results imply that the 4-piperidinyl-bridged quinazolinone-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazole derivatives possess potential as lead compounds for developing more efficient anti-Xoo bactericides.

Design, synthesis, and antimicrobial evaluation of 2-aminothiazole derivatives bearing the 4-aminoquinazoline moiety against plant pathogenic bacteria and fungi. PEST MANAGEMENT SCIENCE 2023; 79:4535-4546. [PMID: 37428867 DOI: 10.1002/ps.7655] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2023] [Revised: 07/04/2023] [Accepted: 07/07/2023] [Indexed: 07/12/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND To find more effective agricultural antibiotics, a class of new 2-aminothiazole derivatives containing the 4-aminoquinazoline moiety were synthesized and evaluated for their antimicrobial properties against phytopathogenic bacteria and fungi of agricultural importance. RESULTS All the target compounds were fully characterized by 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR, and high-resolution mass spectrometry. The bioassay results showed that compound F29 with a 2-pyridinyl substituent exhibited an outstanding antibacterial effect against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola (Xoc) in vitro, having an half-maximal effective concentration (EC50 ) value as low as 2.0 μg/mL (over 30-fold more effective than the commercialized agrobactericide bismerthiazol, with an EC50 value of 64.3 μg/mL). In addition, compound F8 with a 2-fluorophenyl group demonstrated a good inhibitory activity toward the bacterium Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri (Xac), around twofold more active than bismerthiazol in terms of their EC50 values (22.8 versus 71.5 μg/mL). Interestingly, this compound also demonstrated a notable fungicidal effect against Phytophthora parasitica var. nicotianae, with an EC50 value largely comparable with that of the commercialized fungicide carbendazim. Finally, mechanistic studies revealed that compound F29 exerted its antibacterial effects by increasing the permeability of bacterial membranes, reducing the release of extracellular polysaccharides, and triggering morphological changes of bacterial cells. CONCLUSION Compound F29 has promising potential as a lead compound for developing more efficient bactericides to fight against Xoc. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Taking inspiration from the use of natural product-derived bactericide candidates in drug discovery, a series of novel 9-aliphatic amine tryptanthrin derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their biological activity against three plant bacteria. The majority of these compounds exhibited excellent antibacterial activity in vitro. Compound 7c exhibited a significantly superior bacteriostatic effect against Xanthomonas axonopodis pv Citri (Xac), Xanthomonas oryzae pv Oryzae (Xoo), and Pseudomonas syringae pv Actinidiae (Psa) with final corrected EC50 values of 0.769, 1.29, and 15.5 μg/mL, respectively, compared to the commercial pesticide thiodiazole copper which had EC50 values of 58.8, 70.9, and 91.9 μg/mL. Preliminary mechanism studies have demonstrated that 7c is capable of altering bacterial morphology, inducing reactive oxygen species accumulation, promoting bacterial cell apoptosis, inhibiting normal cell growth, and affecting cell membrane permeability. Moreover, in vivo experiments have substantiated the effectiveness of 7c as a therapeutic and defensive agent against the citrus canker. The proteomic analysis has unveiled that the major disparities are located within the bacterial secretion system pathway, which hinders membrane transportation. These discoveries imply that 7c could be an auspicious prototype for developing antiphytopathogenic bacterial agents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chemical control is an important method for tackling crop diseases. Clarifying the antibacterial mechanisms of bactericides is useful for developing new bactericides and for continuous plant disease control. In this study, the antibacterial mechanism of a novel bactericide, dioctyldiethylenetriamine (Xinjunan), which affects adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthesis, was investigated. RESULTS The results of an in vitro inhibition activity assay showed that dioctyldiethylenetriamine inhibited the growth of a variety of plant pathogenic bacteria, especially that of Xanthomonas spp. Scanning electron microscopy demonstrated that dioctyldiethylenetriamine caused cell distortion and rupture. To investigate the molecular mechanism underlying the antibacterial effect of dioctyldiethylenetriamine, transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) was performed for Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo, PXO99A) treated with dioctyldiethylenetriamine, which has strong antibacterial effects against xanthomonads. The results showed that differentially expressed genes were enriched mainly in the oxidative phosphorylation and tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle pathways after treatment. Moreover, the dioctyldiethylenetriamine treatment exhibited reduction in enzyme activities in the TCA cycle, decreased intracellular nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and ATP contents, and increased accumulation of reactive oxygen species. In addition, dioctyldiethylenetriamine exhibited an inhibitory effect on the growth of other bacterial pathogens by reducing ATP synthesis. CONCLUSION This is the first report of the mechanism by which dioctyldiethylenetriamine inhibits ATP synthesis by affecting oxidative phosphorylation and TCA cycle pathways in bacteria. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
A series of novel Mannich bases were designed, synthesized, and screened for their antimicrobial activity. The target compounds were synthesized from 4-(3-chlorophenyl)-5-(3-fluorophenyl)-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione and different piperazine derivatives. The structures of the products were confirmed by 1H and 13C NMR and elemental analysis. The activity of piperazine derivatives against bacteria (Gram-positive: Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus aureus, Micrococcus luteus, Bacillus cereus, and Bacillus subtilis; Gram-negative: Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Proteus mirabilis) and yeasts (Candida glabrata, Candida krusei, and Candida parapsilosis) was determined by the minimum inhibitory concentration and minimum bactericidal concentration values. Significant activity was observed against Gram-positive bacteria, mainly staphylococci (PG7-PG8) and bacteria of the genes of Micrococcus and Bacillus (PG1-3), as well as selected strains of Gram-negative bacteria, including bacteria of the Enterobacteriaceae family (PG7), while all tested compounds showed high fungistatic activity against Candida spp. yeasts, especially C. parapsilosis, with MICs ranging from 0.49 µg/mL (PG7) to 0.98 µg/mL (PG8) and 62.5 µg/mL (PG1-3). In conclusion, the results obtained confirm the multidirectional antimicrobial activity of the newly synthesized piperazine derivatives. Furthermore, in silico studies suggest that the tested compounds are likely to have good oral bioavailability. The results obtained will provide valuable data for further research into this interesting group of compounds. The library of compounds obtained is still the subject of pharmacological research aimed at finding new interesting biologically active compounds.

Abstract
Rice bacterial leaf blight is a destructive bacterial disease caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) that seriously threatens crop yields and their associated economic benefits. In this study, a series of improved dissolubility 7-aliphatic amine tryptanthrin derivatives was designed and synthesized, and their potency in antibacterial applications was investigated. Notably, compound 6e exhibited excellent activity against Xoo, with an EC50 value of 2.55 μg/mL, compared with the positive control bismerthiazol (EC50 = 35.0 μg/mL) and thiodiazole copper (EC50 = 79.4 μg/mL). In vivo assays demonstrated that 6e exhibited a significant protective effect on rice leaves. After exposure, the morphology of the bacteria was partially atrophied by SEM. Furthermore, 6e increased the accumulation of intracellular reactive oxygen species, causing cell apoptosis and the formation of bacterial biofilms. All the results indicated that 6e could be a potential agrochemical bactericide for controlling phytopathogenic bacteria.

Abstract
The natural alkaloids of tryptanthrin and their derivatives have a wide range of biological activities. In this research, four series of azatryptanthrin derivatives containing 4-aza/3-aza/2-aza/1-aza tryptanthrin were prepared by condensation cyclization reaction against plant pathogens to develop a new natural product-based bacterial pesticide. Compound 4Aza-8 displayed a remarkable growth inhibitory effect on pathogenic bacteria of Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri (Xac), Xanthomonas oryzae pv. Oryzae (Xoo), and Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa) with the final corrected EC50 values of 0.312, 1.91, and 18.0 μg/mL, respectively, which were greatly superior than that of tryptanthrin (Tryp). Moreover, 4Aza-8 also showed effective therapeutic and protective activities in vivo on citrus canker. Further mechanism studies on Xac elucidated that compound 4Aza-8 was able to affect the growth curve of Xac and the formation of biofilm, cause severe shrinkage in bacterial morphology, increase reactive oxygen species levels, and induce apoptosis in bacterial cells. Quantitative analysis of differential protein profiles found that the major differences were mainly concentrated on the endometrial protein in the bacterial secretion system pathway, which blocked the membrane transport and affected the transfer of DNA to the host cell. In summary, these research results suggest that 4Aza-8 represents a promising anti-phytopathogenic-bacteria agent, which is worth being further investigated as a bactericide candidate.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fungicides play a significant role in the integrated management of plant pathogens. However, the irrational application of fungicides with similar structures has led to development of cross-resistance, therefore there is a need to seek novel fungicides with new structures. RESULTS Twenty-eight novel sulfoximine derivatives incorporating nitroguanidine moieties were designed, synthesized, and evaluated as antifungal agents. The bioassay results indicated that most of the synthesized compounds displayed excellent fungicidal activities against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, Rhizoctonia solani, Fusarium graminearum, and Pyricularia grisea. Among these, compounds 6c4 , 6c5 , and 6c6 exhibited remarkable fungicidal activities against P. grisea, with EC50 values of 1.28, 1.17, and 1.68 μg mL-1 , respectively. In addition, compound 6c2 displayed the most potent activity against S. sclerotiorum (EC50 = 3.64 μg mL-1 ). Further in vivo fungicidal activity screening against S. sclerotiorum demonstrated that the protective and curative effects of compound 6c2 were 98.1% and 91.3% at 25 μg mL-1 , respectively, comparable to that of boscalid (94.4%, 89.6%). The preliminary mechanism study found that the hyphae of S. sclerotiorum treated with compound 6c2 was abnormal with mycelial collapse and membrane permeability increase. The present findings can help to develop new fungicides for crop protection. CONCLUSION Novel sulfoximine derivatives containing nitroguanidine possess potential antifungal activity, and the unique structure may offer an alternative option for fungicide development in the future. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
This study evaluates the capacity of commercial formulations of synthetic fungicides to inhibit grapevine bacterial growth when sprayed on vineyards to control diseases, such as downy mildew, powdery mildew and secondary rots. Fungicide sensitivity plate assays were carried out on bacteria isolated from vineyards that were also identified and characterized for their plant growth-promoting (PGP) traits and antifungal activity. The high taxonomic variability of bacteria screened with different chemical classes of fungicides is one new finding of this study. Seven out of 11 fungicides were able to inhibit the growth of bacteria at a concentration corresponding to the maximum dose allowed by law in spray treatments of vineyards. Bacterial sensitivity to each fungicide varied greatly. Many sensitive isolates displayed PGP traits and/or antagonistic activity. This study shows the potential impact of fungicidal treatments on grapevine bacterial microbiota. The involvement of bacteria beneficial to the growth and health of plants underlines the importance of this investigation. Our data reveal that the control of a certain disease may be possible using fungicides that have no or low impact on natural non-target microbiota. Understanding the action mechanisms of the active ingredients in these products is a priority for the development of new eco-friendly pesticides.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To discover more efficient antimicrobial agents in agriculture, a series of new quinazoline derivatives bearing both sulfonate ester and piperidine-4-carboxamide moieties were synthesized and assessed for their antimicrobial effects. RESULTS All of the target compounds were fully characterized by proton (1 H) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), carbon-13 (13 C) NMR, and high-resolution mass spectroscopy (HRMS), and compound III-6 containing a 3-bromophenyl substituent was clearly confirmed via single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The bioassay results indicated that some compounds displayed noticeable inhibitory effects in vitro against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola (Xoc). Further measurements of median effective concentration (EC50 ) values showed that compound III-17 bearing a 4-methoxyphenyl group had the best anti-Xoc efficacy (EC50 = 12.4 μg mL-1 ), far better than the commercialized bismerthiazol (77.5 μg mL-1 ). Moreover, this compound also demonstrated good protection and curative activities in vivo against rice bacterial leaf streak caused by Xoc. CONCLUSION Compound III-17 had a good potential for further development as a new bactericide for controlling Xoc. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Plant bacterial illnesses are common and cause dramatic damage to agricultural goods all over the world, yet there are few efficient bactericides to alleviate them at present. To discover novel antibacterial agents, two series of quinazolinone derivatives with novel structures were synthesized and their bioactivity against plant bacteria was tested. Combining CoMFA model search and the antibacterial bioactivity assay, D32 was identified as a potent antibacterial inhibitor against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. Oryzae (Xoo), with an EC50 value of 1.5 μg/mL, much better in inhibitory capacity compared to bismerthiazol (BT) and thiodiazole copper (TC) (31.9 and 74.2 μg/mL). The activities of compound D32 against rice bacterial leaf blight in vivo were 46.7% (protective activities) and 43.9% (curative activities), better than commercial drug thiodiazole copper (29.3% protective activities and 30.6% curative activities). Flow cytometry, proteomics, reactive oxygen species, and key defense enzymes were used to further investigate the relevant mechanisms of action of D32. The identification of D32 as an antibacterial inhibitor and revelation of its recognition mechanism not only open the possibility of developing new therapeutic strategies for treatment of Xoo but also provide clues for elucidation of the acting mechanism of quinazolinone derivative D32, which is a possible clinical candidate worth in-depth study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Plant bacterial diseases have seriously affected the yield and quality of crops, among which rice bacterial leaf blight (BLB), caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae has seriously affected the yield of rice. As plant-pathogenic bacteria gradually become resistant to existing bactericides, it is necessary to find effective bactericides with novel structures. RESULTS Herein, a series of compounds containing quinazolin-4(3H)-one and disulfide moieties were designed and synthesized using a facile synthetic method. The bioassay results revealed that most target compounds possessed noticeable antibacterial activity against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae. Particularly, compound 2-(butyldisulfanyl) quinazolin-4(3H)-one (1) exhibited remarkable antibacterial activity with the half effective concentration (EC50 ) of 0.52 μg mL-1 . Additionally, compound 1 was confirmed to inhibit the growth of the bacteria, change the bacterial morphology, and increase the level of reactive oxygen species. Proteomics, and RT-qPCR analysis results indicated that compound 1 could downregulate the expression of Pil-Chp histidine kinase chpA encoded by the pilL gene, and the potting experiments proved that compound 1 exhibits significant protective activity against BLB. CONCLUSIONS Compound 1 may weaken the pathogenicity of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae by inhibiting the bacterial growth and blocking the pili-mediated twitching motility without inducing the bacterial apoptosis. This study indicates that such derivatives could be a promising scaffold to develop a bacteriostat to control BLB. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri (Xac) belongs to the Gram-negative species, causing citrus canker that seriously affects the fruit yield and quality of many rutaceae plants. Herein, we found that compound 2-(butyldisulfanyl) quinazolin-4(3H)-one exhibited remarkable anti-Xac activity in vitro with a half effective concentration (EC50) of 2.6 μg/mL, while the positive controls thiodiazole-copper with 57 μg/mL and bismerthiazol with 68 μg/mL and this compound showed great anti-citrus canker activity in vivo. This active compound also was confirmed to reduce biofilm formation, increase the level of reactive oxygen species, damage the morphological structure of the bacteria, and cause bacterial death. Proteomics and RT-qPCR analysis results indicated that this compound down-regulated the expression of enzymes in the MEP (2-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate) pathway and might achieve destructive ability of Xac. Overall, this study indicates that such derivatives could be a promising scaffold to develop novel bactericides to control citrus canker.

Abstract
A total of 29 novel quinazoline-2-aminothiazole hybrids containing a 4-piperidinylamide linker were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their anti-microbial properties against phytopathogenic fungi and bacteria of agricultural importance. The anti-fungal assays indicated that some of the target compounds exhibited excellent inhibitory effects in vitro against Rhizoctonia solani. For example, 11 compounds within this series (including 4a, 4g, 4h, 4j, 4o, 4s, 4t, 4u, 4v, 4y, and 4b') were found to possess EC50 values (effective concentration for 50% activity) ranging from 0.42 to 2.05 μg/mL against this pathogen. In particular, compound 4y with a 2-chloro-6-fluorophenyl substituent displayed a potent anti-R. solani efficacy with EC50 = 0.42 μg/mL, nearly threefold more effective than the commercialized fungicide Chlorothalonil (EC50 = 1.20 μg/mL) and also slightly superior to the other fungicide Carbendazim (EC50 = 0.53 μg/mL). Moreover, compound 4y could efficiently inhibit the growth of R. solani in vivo on the potted rice plants, displaying an impressive protection efficacy of 82.3% at 200 μg/mL, better than those of the fungicides Carbendazim (69.8%) and Chlorothalonil (48.9%). Finally, the mechanistic studies showed that compound 4y exerted its anti-fungal effects by altering the mycelial morphology, increasing the cell membrane permeability, and destroying the cell membrane integrity. On the other hand, some compounds demonstrated good anti-bacterial effects in vitro against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo). Overall, the presented results implied that 4-piperidinylamide-bridged quinazoline-2-aminothiazole hybrids held the promise of acting as lead compounds for developing more efficient fungicides to control R. solani.

Abstract
Rice bacterial blight and rice bacterial streak are two serious rice diseases and have caused great harm to the production of rice all over the world. To develop an efficient antibacterial agent with a novel target, a series of novel 2-oxo-N-phenylacetamide derivatives containing a dissulfone moiety were synthesized, and their antibacterial activities were evaluated. Among them, compound D14 exhibited the best antibacterial activities, especially against Xoo and Xoc with EC50 values of 0.63 and 0.79 mg/L, respectively, which were much better than the commercial control of bismerthiazol (BT) (76.59 and 83.35 mg/L, respectively) and thiodiazole copper (TC) (91.72 and 114.00 mg/L, respectively). Meanwhile, compound D14 can interact with a CRP-like protein (Clp) of Pxo99A and show strong binding activity with Xoo-Clp with a Kd value of 0.52 μM, which was far superior to the corresponding Kd values of BT (183.94 μM) and TC (222.58 μM). Treatment of D14 and deletion of the clp gene could significantly reduce the expression of the clp gene and attenuate the virulence of pathogenic bacteria. These results indicated that compound D14 could be used as a potential novel agricultural bactericide and Clp can be used as a target protein for the control of plant bacterial diseases. This work provided reliable support for developing novel antibacterial agents based on Clp as a target protein.

Abstract
A total of 66 sulfonamide derivatives bearing the 4-aminoquinazoline moiety were designed and synthesized, and their structures were fully characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and HRMS techniques. Among them, the structures of compounds 5A10 and 5B11 were further confirmed through X-ray single-crystal diffraction analyses. The bioassay results indicated that some of the target compounds displayed higher inhibition activities in vitro against the tested phytopathogenic bacteria. For example, compound 5A26 exhibited a strong anti-Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola (Xoc) efficacy with an EC50 (half-maximal effective concentration) value of 30.6 μg/mL, over twofold more active than control agent bismerthiazol (BMT). Additionally, compound 5B14 had a good antibacterial effect against the phytopathogen Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citric (Xac) with EC50 = 34.5 μg/mL, significantly better than control agent BMT (71.5 μg/mL). The anti-Xoc mechanistic studies showed that compound 5A26 exerted its antibacterial efficacy by increasing the permeability of bacterial membrane, decreasing the content of extracellular polysaccharides, and triggering morphological changes of bacterial cells.

Abstract
The discovery of new scaffolds and targets for pesticides is still a huge challenge facing the sustainable development of modern agriculture. In recent years, quinazoline derivatives have achieved great progress in drug discovery and have attracted great attention. Quinazoline is a unique bicyclic scaffold with a variety of biological activities, which increases the possibilities and flexibility of structural modification, showing enormous appeal in the discovery of new pesticides. Therefore, the agricultural biological activities, structure-activity relationships (SAR), and mechanism of action of quinazoline derivatives in the past decade were reviewed systematically, with emphasis on SAR and mechanism. Then, we prospected the application of the quinazoline scaffold as a special structure in agricultural chemical discovery, hoping to provide new ideas for the rational design and mechanism of novel quinazoline agricultural chemicals in the future.

Abstract
A series of quinoxaline derivatives were designed, synthesized and evaluated as antimicrobial agents against plant pathogenic bacteria and fungi. Some of these compounds exhibited significant antibacterial and antifungal activities in vitro. Compound 5k displayed good antibacterial activity against Acidovorax citrulli (Ac). Compounds 5j and 5t exhibited the most potent anti-RS (Rhizoctonia solani) activity, with the corresponding EC50 values of 8.54 and 12.01 μg mL−1, respectively, which are superior to that of the commercial azoxystrobin (26.17 μg mL−1). Further, the scanning electron microscopy results proved that compound 5j had certain effects on the cell morphology of RS. Moreover, an in vivo bioassay also demonstrated that the anti-RS activity of compound 5j could effectively control rice sheath blight. These results indicate that quinoxaline derivatives could be promising agricultural bactericides and fungicides. Structure of some commercial agents.![]()

Abstract
Polysubstituted phenylisoxazoles were designed and synthesized to discover new antibacterial agents via [3 + 2] cycloaddition. Thirty-five compounds with a phenylisoxazole scaffold were characterized by NMR, HRMS, and X-ray techniques. After being evaluated against Xanthomonas oryzae (Xoo), Pseudomonas syringae (Psa), and Xanthomonas axonopodis (Xac), 4-nitro-3-phenylisoxazole derivatives were found to better antibacterial activities. Further studies have shown that the EC50 values of these compounds were much better than that of the positive control, bismerthiazol. Thirty-five compounds with phenylisoxazole scaffold were synthesized via [3+2] cycloaddition. After being evaluated against Xoo, Psa and Xac, 4-nitro-3-phenylisoxazole derivatives were found well antibacterial activities.![]()

Abstract
A total of 52 novel 1,2,4-triazole thioether and thiazolo[3,2-b]-1,2,4-triazole derivatives bearing the 6-fluoroquinazolinyl moiety were designed, synthesized, and evaluated as antimicrobial agents in agriculture based on the molecular hybridization strategy. Among them, molecular structures of compounds 5g and 6m were further confirmed via the single-crystal X-ray diffraction method. The bioassay results indicated that some of the target compounds possessed excellent antibacterial activities in vitro against the pathogen Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo). For example, compound 6u demonstrated a strong anti-Xoo efficacy with an EC50 value of 18.8 μg/mL, nearly 5-fold more active than that of the commercialized bismerthiazol (EC50 = 93.6 μg/mL). Moreover, the anti-Xoo mechanistic studies revealed that compound 6u exerted its antibacterial effects by increasing the permeability of bacterial membrane, reducing the content of extracellular polysaccharide, and inducing morphological changes of bacterial cells. Importantly, in vivo assays revealed its pronounced protection and curative effects against rice bacterial blight, proving its potential as a promising bactericide candidate for controlling Xoo. Moreover, compound 6u had a good pesticide-likeness based on Tice's criteria. More interestingly, compound 6u with high anti-Xoo activity also demonstrated a potent inhibitory effect of 80.8% against the fungus Rhizoctonia solani at 50 μg/mL, comparable to that of the commercialized chlorothalonil (85.9%). Overall, the current study will provide useful guidance for the rational design of more efficient agricultural antimicrobial agents using the thiazolo[3,2-b]-1,2,4-triazole derivatives bearing the 6-fluoroquinazolinyl moiety as lead compounds.

Abstract
Targeting the virulence factors of phytopathogenic bacteria is an innovative strategy for alleviating or eliminating the pathogenicity and rapid outbreak of plant microbial diseases. Therefore, several types of 1,2,4-triazole thioethers bearing an amide linkage were prepared and screened to develop virulence factor inhibitors. Besides, the 1,2,4-triazole scaffold was exchanged by a versatile 1,3,4-oxadiazole core to expand molecular diversity. Bioassay results revealed that a 1,2,4-triazole thioether A10 bearing a privileged N-(3-nitrophenyl)acetamide fragment was extremely bioactive against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) with an EC50 value of 5.01 μg/mL. Label-free quantitative proteomics found that compound A10 could significantly downregulate the expression of Xoo's type III secretion system (T3SS) and transcription activator-like effector (TALE) correlative proteins. Meanwhile, qRT-PCR detection revealed that the corresponding gene transcription levels of these virulence factor-associated proteins were substantially inhibited after being triggered by compound A10. As a result, the hypersensitive response and pathogenicity were strongly depressed, indicating that a novel virulence factor inhibitor (A10) was probably discovered. In vivo anti-Xoo trials displayed that compound A10 yielded practicable control efficiency (54.2-59.6%), which was superior to thiadiazole-copper and bismerthiazol (38.1-44.9%). Additionally, compound A10 showed an appreciable antiviral activity toward tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) with the curative and protective activities of 54.6 and 76.4%, respectively, which were comparable to ningnanmycin (55.2 and 60.9%). This effect was further validated and visualized by the inoculation test using GFP-labeled TMV, thereby leading to the reduced biosynthesis of green-fluorescent TMV on Nicotiana benthamiana. Given the outstanding features of compound A10, it should be deeply developed as a versatile agricultural chemical.

Abstract
Cytochrome bc 1 complex is an important component of cellular respiratory chain, and it is also an important target enzyme to inhibit the growth of plant pathogens. Using cytochrome bc 1 complex as the target enzyme, twenty-three novel nopol-based 1,2,4-triazole-thioether compounds were designed and synthesized from natural preponderant resource β-pinene, and their structures were confirmed by FT-IR, NMR, ESI-MS and elemental analysis. The in vitro antifungal activity of the target compounds 5a-5w was preliminarily evaluated against eight plant pathogens at the concentration of 50 µg/ml. The bioassay results showed that the target compounds exhibited the best antifungal activity against Physalospora piricola, in which compounds 5b (R= o-CH3 Ph), 5e (R= o-OCH3 Ph), 5h (R= o-F Ph), 5m (R= o-Br Ph), 5o (R= m,m-OCH3 Ph), and 5r (R= p-OH Ph) had inhibition rates of 91.4, 83.3, 86.7, 83.8, 91.4 and 87.3%, respectively, much better than that of the positive control chlorothalonil. Also, compound 5a (R= Ph) had inhibition rate of 87.9% against Rhizoeotnia solani, and compound 5b (R= o-CH3 Ph) had inhibition rates of 87.6 and 89% against Bipolaris maydis and Colleterichum orbicala, respectively. In order to develop novel and promising antifungal compounds against P. piricola, the analysis of three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D-QSAR) was carried out using the CoMFA method on the basis of their antifungal activity data, and a reasonable and effective 3D-QSAR model (r 2 = 0.944, q 2 = 0.685) has been established. In addition, the theoretical study of molecular docking revealed that the target compounds could bind to and interact with the site of cytochrome bc 1 complex.

Abstract
Various 1,3,4-oxadiazole thioether 4H-chromen-4-one derivatives were conceived. The title compounds demonstrated striking inhibitory effects against Xac, Psa, and Xoo. EC50 data exhibited that A8 (19.7 μg/mL) had better antibacterial activity against Xoo than myricetin, BT, and TC. Simultaneously, the mechanism of action of A8 had been verified by SEM. The results of anti-tobacco mosaic virus indicated that A9 had the best in vivo antiviral effect compared with ningnanmycin. From the data of MST, it could be seen that A9 (0.003 ± 0.001 μmol/L) exhibited a strong binding capacity, which was far superior to ningnanmycin (2.726 ± 1.301 μmol/L). This study shows that the 1,3,4-oxadiazole thioether 4H-chromen-4-one derivatives may become agricultural drugs with great potential.

Abstract
Thirty-eight novel ferulic amide 1-aminocyclohexane carboxylic acid (Ac6c) derivatives D1-D19 and E1-E19 were designed and synthesized, and their antibacterial, antifungal, and insecticidal activities were tested. Most of the synthesized compounds displayed excellent activity againstXanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), with EC50 values ranging from 11.6 to 83.1 μg/mL better than that of commercial bismerthiazol (BMT, EC50 = 84.3 μg/mL), as well as much better performance compared to that of thiediazole copper (TDC, EC50 = 137.8 μg/mL). D6 (EC50 = 17.3 μg/mL), D19 (EC50 = 29.4 μg/mL), E3 (EC50 = 29.7 μg/mL), E9 (EC50 = 27.0 μg/mL), E10 (EC50 = 18.6 μg/mL), and E18 (EC50 = 20.8 μg/mL) showed much higher activity on Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola compared with BMT (EC50 = 80.1 μg/mL) and TDC (EC50 = 124.7 μg/mL). In relation to controlling the fungus, Rhizoctonia solani, E1, E10, and E13 had much lower EC50 values of 0.005, 0.140, and 0.159 μg/mL compared to hymexazol at 74.8 μg/mL. Further in vivo experiments demonstrated that E6 and E12 controlled rice bacterial leaf blight disease better than BMT and TDC did. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) studies revealed that E12 induced the Xoo cell membrane collapse. Moreover, D13 (73.7%), E5 (80.6%), and E10 (73.4%) also showed moderate activity against Plutella xylostella. These results indicated that the synthesized ferulic amide Ac6c derivatives showed promise as candidates for treating crop diseases.

Abstract
Rice bacterial leaf blight caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) is considered a destructive plant bacterial disease. The looming crisis of antibiotic resistance necessitates the discovery of antibiotics with new modes of action. Activated caseinolytic protease P (ClpP) can degrade bacterial FtsZ proteins that are essential for cell division; thus, we hypothesized that small-molecule-induced dysregulation of XooClpP may result in degradation of XooFtsZ to treat leaf blight diseases. In this work, we have determined the crystal structures of XooClpP, and its mutant bound with ADEP4, which revealed the action modes of XooClpP assemblies and XooFtsZ degradation by dysregulated XooClpP in the presence of small-molecule activators, such as ONC212 and ADEP4. Additionally, an antibacterial assessment demonstrated that ONC212 displays excellent activity against Xoo and prevents rice bacterial leaf blight in vivo. Thus, these unique antibacterial effects of small-molecule activators of XooClpP represent a potential strategy for the development of agricultural antibiotics by targeting bacterial ClpP.
