High-efficiency breeding of Bacillus siamensis with hyper macrolactins production using physical mutagenesis and a high-throughput culture system. J Biotechnol 2024; 395:S0168-1656(24)00251-7. [PMID: 39299520 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbiotec.2024.09.008] [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: 06/10/2024] [Revised: 08/02/2024] [Accepted: 09/15/2024] [Indexed: 09/22/2024]
Abstract
Macrolactins have attracted considerable attention due to their value and application in medicine and agriculture. However, poor yields severely hinder their broader application in these fields. This study aimed to improve macrolactins production in Bacillus siamensis using a combined atmospheric and room-temperature plasma mutagenesis and a microbial microdroplet culture system. After 25 days of treatment, a desirable strain with macrolactins production 3.0-fold higher than that of the parental strain was successfully selected. The addition of 30mg/L ZnSO4 further increased macrolactins production to 503 ± 37.6μg/mL, representing a 30.9% improvement in production compared to controls. Based on transcriptome analysis, the synthesis pathways of amino acids, fengycin, and surfactin were found to be downregulated in IMD4036. Further fermentation experiments confirmed that inhibition of the comparative fengycin synthesis pathway was potentially driving the increased production of macrolactins. The strategies and possible mechanisms detailed in this study can provide insight into enhancing the production of other secondary metabolites toxic to the producer strains.

Abstract
The marine environment is the largest ecological habitat on Earth, albeit one of the least explored, particularly in terms of its microbial inhabitants. The marine fish gut is host to a diverse microbial community from which diverse bioactive molecules can be sourced. Due to the unique environmental pressures these microbial communities experience, the bioactive molecules they produce often evolve unique adaptations that give them diverse structures and activities, differentiating them from terrestrial homologues. Of particular interest, due to their structural and functional diversity, are the ribosomally-synthesized antimicrobial peptides (bacteriocins). With increasing pressure from emerging antibiotic-resistant disease and industrial demand for novel therapeutics, the marine fish gut microbiome represents a relatively untapped resource of novel bacteriocins that could prove beneficial to human health and aquaculture. This review presents an overview of the marine fish gut microbiome and explores its potential as a source of bacteriocins for human health with considerations for applications and future research in this area.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Certain Bacillus species play a vital role in polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) production. However, most of these isolates did not properly identify to species level when scientifically had been reported. RESULTS From NGS analysis, 5719 genes were predicted in the de novo genome assembly. Based on genome annotation using RAST server, 5,527,513 bp sequences were predicted with 5679 bp number of protein-coding sequence. Its genome sequence contains 35.1% and 156 GC content and contigs, respectively. In RAST server analysis, subsystem (43%) and non-subsystem coverage (57%) were generated. Ortho Venn comparative genome analysis indicated that Bacillus sp. BNPI-92 shared 2930 gene cluster (core gene) with B. cereus ATCC 14579 T (AE016877), B. paranthracis Mn5T (MACE01000012), B. thuringiensis ATCC 10792 T (ACNF01000156), and B. antrics Amen T (AE016879) strains. For our strain, the maximum gene cluster (190) was shared with B. cereus ATCC 14579 T (AE016877). For Ortho Venn pair wise analysis, the maximum overlapping gene clusters thresholds have been detected between Bacillus s p.BNPI-92 and Ba. cereus ATCC 14579 T (5414). Average nucleotide identity (ANI) such as OriginalANI and OrthoANI, in silicon digital DND-DNA hybridization (isDDH), Type (Strain) Genome Server (TYGS), and Genome-Genome Distance Calculator (GGDC) were more essentially related Bacillus sp. BNPI-92 with B. cereus ATCC 14579 T strain. Therefore, based on the combination of RAST annotation, OrthoVenn server, ANI and isDDH result Bacillus sp.BNPI-92 strain was strongly confirmed to be a B. cereus type strain. It was designated as B. cereus BNPI-92 strain. In B. cereus BNPI-92 strain whole genome sequence, PHA biosynthesis encoding genes such as phaP, phaQ, phaR (PHA synthesis repressor phaR gene sequence), phaB/phbB, and phaC were predicted on the same operon. These gene clusters were designated as phaPQRBC. However, phaA was located on other operons. CONCLUSIONS This newly obtained isolate was found to be new a strain based on comparative genomic analysis and it was also observed as a potential candidate for PHA biosynthesis.

Evaluation and Genome Mining of Bacillus stercoris Isolate B.PNR1 as Potential Agent for Fusarium Wilt Control and Growth Promotion of Tomato. THE PLANT PATHOLOGY JOURNAL 2023; 39:430-448. [PMID: 37817491 PMCID: PMC10580056 DOI: 10.5423/ppj.oa.01.2023.0018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2023] [Revised: 08/07/2023] [Accepted: 08/26/2023] [Indexed: 10/12/2023]
Abstract
Recently, strategies for controlling Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici (Fol), the causal agent of Fusarium wilt of tomato, focus on using effective biocontrol agents. In this study, an analysis of the biocontrol and plant growth promoting (PGP) attributes of 11 isolates of loamy soil Bacillus spp. has been conducted. Among them, the isolates B.PNR1 and B.PNR2 inhibited the mycelial growth of Fol by inducing abnormal fungal cell wall structures and cell wall collapse. Moreover, broad-spectrum activity against four other plant pathogenic fungi, F. oxysporum f. sp. cubense race 1 (Foc), Sclerotium rolfsii, Colletotrichum musae, and C. gloeosporioides were noted for these isolates. These two Bacillus isolates produced indole acetic acid, phosphate solubilization enzymes, and amylolytic and cellulolytic enzymes. In the pot experiment, the culture filtrate from B.PNR1 showed greater inhibition of the fungal pathogens and significantly promoted the growth of tomato plants more than those of the other treatments. Isolate B.PNR1, the best biocontrol and PGP, was identified as Bacillus stercoris by its 16S rRNA gene sequence and whole genome sequencing analysis (WGS). The WGS, through genome mining, confirmed that the B.PNR1 genome contained genes/gene cluster of a nonribosomal peptide synthetase/polyketide synthase, such as fengycin, surfactin, bacillaene, subtilosin A, bacilysin, and bacillibactin, which are involved in antagonistic and PGP activities. Therefore, our finding demonstrates the effectiveness of B. stercoris strain B.PNR1 as an antagonist and for plant growth promotion, highlighting the use of this microorganism as a biocontrol agent against the Fusarium wilt pathogen and PGP abilities in tomatoes.

Biosynthetic Gene Clusters in Sequenced Genomes of Four Contrasting Rhizobacteria in Phytopathogen Inhibition and Interaction with Capsicum annuum Roots. Microbiol Spectr 2023; 11:e0307222. [PMID: 37222590 PMCID: PMC10269915 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.03072-22] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/05/2022] [Accepted: 05/04/2023] [Indexed: 05/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Through screening of rhizobacteria, species that effectively suppress phytopathogens and/or promote plant growth are found. Genome sequencing is a crucial step in obtaining a complete characterization of microorganisms for biotechnological applications. This study aimed to sequence the genomes of four rhizobacteria that differ in their inhibition of four root pathogens and in their interaction with chili pepper roots to identify the species and analyze differences in the biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) for antibiotic metabolites and to determine possible phenotype-genotype correlations. Results from sequencing and genome alignment identified two bacteria as Paenibacillus polymyxa, one as Kocuria polaris, and one that was previously sequenced as Bacillus velezensis. Analysis with antiSMASH and PRISM tools showed that B. velezensis 2A-2B, the strain with the best performance of referred characteristics, had 13 BGCs, including those related to surfactin, fengycin, and macrolactin, not shared with the other bacteria, whereas P. polymyxa 2A-2A and 3A-25AI, with up to 31 BGCs, showed lower pathogen inhibition and plant hostility; K. polaris showed the least antifungal capacity. P. polymyxa and B. velezensis had the highest number of BGCs for nonribosomal peptides and polyketides. In conclusion, the 13 BGCs in the genome of B. velezensis 2A-2B that were not present in the other bacteria could explain its effective antifungal capacity and could also contribute to its friendly interaction with chili pepper roots. The high number of other BGCs for nonribosomal peptides and polyketide shared by the four bacteria contributed much less to phenotypic differences. IMPORTANCE To advance the characterization of a microorganism as a biocontrol agent against phytopathogens, it is highly recommended to analyze the potential of the profile of secondary metabolites as antibiotics that it produces to counteract pathogens. Some specific metabolites have positive impacts in plants. By analyzing sequenced genomes with bioinformatic tools, such as antiSMASH and PRISM, outstanding bacterial strains with high potential to inhibit phytopathogens and/or promote plant growth can be quickly selected to confirm and expand our knowledge of BGCs of great value in phytopathology.

Abstract
Bacillus species act as plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) that can produce a large number of bioactive metabolites. Bacillaene, a linear polyketide/nonribosomal peptide produced by Bacillus strains, is synthesized by the trans-acyltransferase polyketide synthetase. The complexity of the chemical structure, particularity of biosynthesis, potent bioactivity, and the important role of competition make Bacillus an ideal antibiotic weapon to resist other microbes and maintain the optimal rhizosphere environment. This review provides an updated view of the structural features, biological activity, biosynthetic regulators of biosynthetic pathways, and the important competitive role of bacillaene during Bacillus survival.

Abstract
Bacillus velezensis has recently received increasing attention as a biological fungicide and a potential probiotic agent because of its broad spectrum of antibacterial and antifungal activities. Here, we evaluated the beneficial traits of a newly isolated B. velezensis strain LOH112 using comprehensive bioinformatics and comparative genomic analyses and in vitro experimental approaches. Whole genome sequencing and assembly results showed that the genome of LOH112 consists of a circular chromosome and a circular plasmid, which encodes proteins involved in important biological processes such as sporulation, quorum sensing, and antibiotic synthesis. LOH112 contains 13 secondary metabolism gene clusters responsible for the production of antimicrobial compounds. In vitro experiments showed that LOH112 effectively inhibits several fungi and Gram-positive pathogenic bacteria, hydrolyzes protein and cellulose, and is capable of forming strong adhesive biofilms. Furthermore, comparative genomics revealed that LOH112 contains 34 strain-specific orthologous gene clusters, including two caseinolytic protease P (clpP) genes responsible for proteomic homeostasis. Selective pressure analysis indicated that the transmembrane transporter and ATP-dependent alanine/valine adenylase genes were strongly positively selected, which may endow LOH112 with better biocontrol ability and potential probiotic properties. Collectively, these results not only provide insights into a deeper understanding of the genomic characterization of LOH112 but also imply the potential application of LOH112 as biocontrol and probiotic agents.

Abstract
Bacillus velezensis SK having broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity has been isolated from soil. The efficient extraction of antimicrobial compounds produced in various mediums has been done using Diaion HP-20 resin. Further, characterization of an antimicrobial compound by TLC, FTIR, in-situ bioautography analysis revealed the presence of cyclic lipopeptides, which is then purified by the combination of silica gel, size exclusion, dual gradient, and RP-HPLC chromatography techniques. Growth kinetic studies showed that Bacillus velezensis SK produces a mixture of lipopeptides (1.33 gL-1). The lipopeptide exhibits good pH (2-10) and temperature stability up to 80 °C. LC-ESI-MS analysis of partially purified lipopeptide identified variant of surfactin, further analysis of purified chromatographic fractions revealed the occurrence of most abundant C15-surfactin homologues (m/z 1036.72 Da). The isolated surfactin exhibits good antimicrobial activity (1600 AU/ml) against drug-resistant food-born B. cereus and human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus. Hence, identified strain B. velezensis SK and its potent antibacterial surfactin lipopeptide could be used in various food and biomedical applications.

Abstract
Spore-forming Bacillus species are gaining interest in human health recently, due to their ability to withstand the harsh environment of the gastrointestinal tract. The present study explores probiotic features of Bacillus paranthracis strain MHSD3 through genomic analysis and in vitro probiotic assays. The draft genome of strain MHSD3 contained genes associated with tolerance to gastrointestinal stress and adhesion. Cluster genes responsible for the synthesis of antimicrobial non-ribosomal peptide synthetases, bacteriocins, and linear azole-containing peptides were identified. Additionally, strain MHSD3 was able to survive in an acidic environment, had the tolerance to bile salt, and exhibited the capability to tolerate gastric juices. Moreover, the isolate was found to possess strong cell surface traits such as high auto-aggregation and hydrophobicity indices of 79 and 54%, respectively. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis showed that the strain produced secondary metabolites such as amino acids, phenolic compounds, and organic acid, known to exert health-promoting properties, including the improvement of gastrointestinal tract health.

Abstract
Subclinical mastitis is one of the major problems affecting dairy animals’ productivity and is classified based on milk somatic cell counts (SCC). Previous data showed that marine-derived Bacillus amyloliquefaciens-9 (GB-9) improved the immunity and the nonspecific immune defense system of the body. In this study, the potential role of GB-9 in improving subclinical mastitis was assessed with Radix Tetrastigmae (RT) as a positive control in subclinical mastitis Saanen dairy goats. The current data showed that GB-9 and RT significantly reduced the SCC in dairy goats. After being fed with GB-9 or RT, the decreased concentrations of malondialdehyde, IgA, IgM, IL-2, IL-4, and IL-6 were observed. The amplicon sequencing analysis of fecal samples revealed that GB-9 significantly altered the bacterial community. Bacteroides and Phascolarctobacterium were the major genera that respond to GB-9 feeding. The correlation analysis using weighted gene co-expression network analysis showed a MePink module was most associated with the serum concentrations of immunoglobulin and interleukin. The MePink module contained 89 OTUs. The feeding of GB-9 in decreasing the SCC was associated with the altered abundance of Bacteroides, which was correlated with the concentrations of immunoglobulins and chemokines. Collectively, the current data suggested that marine-derived GB-9 could be a helpful probiotic to control subclinical mastitis.

Microorganisms 2021; 9:microorganisms9030614. [PMID: 33802666 PMCID: PMC8002464 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms9030614] [Citation(s) in RCA: 73] [Impact Index Per Article: 24.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/22/2021] [Revised: 02/24/2021] [Accepted: 02/26/2021] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
Bacteria under the operational group Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (OGBa) are all Gram-positive, endospore-forming, and rod-shaped. Taxonomically, the OGBa belongs to the Bacillus subtilis species complex, family Bacillaceae, class Bacilli, and phylum Firmicutes. To date, the OGBa comprises four bacterial species: Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, Bacillus siamensis, Bacillus velezensis and Bacillus nakamurai. They are widely distributed in various niches including soil, plants, food, and water. A resurgence in genome mining has caused an increased focus on the biotechnological applications of bacterial species belonging to the OGBa. The members of OGBa are known as plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) due to their abilities to fix nitrogen, solubilize phosphate, and produce siderophore and phytohormones, as well as antimicrobial compounds. Moreover, they are also reported to produce various enzymes including α-amylase, protease, lipase, cellulase, xylanase, pectinase, aminotransferase, barnase, peroxidase, and laccase. Antimicrobial compounds that able to inhibit the growth of pathogens including non-ribosomal peptides and polyketides are also produced by these bacteria. Within the OGBa, various B. velezensis strains are promising for use as probiotics for animals and fishes. Genome mining has revealed the potential applications of members of OGBa for removing organophosphorus (OPs) pesticides. Thus, this review focused on the applicability of members of OGBa as plant growth promoters, biocontrol agents, probiotics, bioremediation agents, as well as producers of commercial enzymes and antibiotics. Here, the bioformulations and commercial products available based on these bacteria are also highlighted. This review will better facilitate understandings of members of OGBa and their biotechnological applications.

Proteome Sci 2021; 19:4. [PMID: 33750393 PMCID: PMC7945214 DOI: 10.1186/s12953-021-00172-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2020] [Accepted: 02/25/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Escherichia coli (E. coli) is the principal pathogen that causes biofilm formation. Biofilms are associated with infectious diseases and antibiotic resistance. This study employed proteomic analysis to identify differentially expressed proteins after coculture of E. coli with Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) microcapsules. METHODS To explore the relevant protein abundance changes after E. coli and LGG coculture, label-free quantitative proteomic analysis and qRT-PCR were applied to E. coli and LGG microcapsule groups before and after coculture, respectively. RESULTS The proteomic analysis characterised a total of 1655 proteins in E. coli K12MG1655 and 1431 proteins in the LGG. After coculture treatment, there were 262 differentially expressed proteins in E. coli and 291 in LGG. Gene ontology analysis showed that the differentially expressed proteins were mainly related to cellular metabolism, the stress response, transcription and the cell membrane. A protein interaction network and Kyoto Encyclopaedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis indicated that the differentiated proteins were mainly involved in the protein ubiquitination pathway and mitochondrial dysfunction. CONCLUSIONS These findings indicated that LGG microcapsules may inhibit E. coli biofilm formation by disrupting metabolic processes, particularly in relation to energy metabolism and stimulus responses, both of which are critical for the growth of LGG. Together, these findings increase our understanding of the interactions between bacteria under coculture conditions.

Abstract
Bacillus amyloliquefaciens-9 (GBacillus-9), derived from the intestinal tract of the white-spotted bamboo shark, secretes a variety of antimicrobial compounds that inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria. In this study, the role of GBacillus-9 in the prevention and treatment of Saanen kids with diarrhea was assessed. Six healthy kids (HL) and six kids with diarrhea (DL) were selected. All kids were fed with 0.3% (w/v) GBacillus-9 (spray power) in raw milk for two weeks. The proportion of kids with diarrhea decreased gradually as the trial progressed, and 100% DL kids were cured at day 15. GBacillus-9 increased the serum immunoglobulin (Ig) G, interleukin (IL)-4, and IL-6 concentration (p < 0.05). The amplicon sequencing analysis of the fecal bacterial community revealed that the fecal microbiota was remarkably different between the HL and the DL groups at day 0. After two weeks of feeding with GBacillus-9, no significant difference in fecal microbiota was observed between HL and DL groups at the phylum level. GBacillus-9 restored the intestinal microbial disorder associated with serum immunoglobulin and interleukin concentration. Correlation analysis showed that GBacillus-9 altered globulin and interleukin concentration and that immunoglobulin was associated with Firmicutes. Collectively, our results revealed that GBacillus-9 improved the gut health of kids by improving microbial homeostasis.

Comparative genomics analysis of two banana Fusarium wilt biocontrol endophytes Bacillus subtilis R31 and TR21 provides insights into their differences on phytobeneficial trait. Genomics 2021; 113:900-909.

Abstract
Fusarium wilt of banana is considered one of the most destructive plant diseases. Bacillus subtilis R31 and TR21, isolated from Dendrobium sp. leaves, exhibit different phytobeneficial effects on banana Fusarium wilt bio-controlling. Here, we performed genome sequencing and comparative genomics analysis of R31 and TR21 to enhance our understanding of the different phytobeneficial traits. These results revealed that the strain-specific genes of R31 involved in sporulation, quorum sensing, and antibiotic synthesis allow R31 to present a better capacity of sporulation, rhizosphere adaptation, and quorum sensing than TR21. Selective pressure analysis indicated that the glycosylase and endo-alpha-(1- > 5)-L-arabinanase genes were strong positive selected, which may contribute to the TR21 to colonize well in banana's vascular bundles. Altogether, our findings presented here should advance further agricultural application of R31 and TR21 as two promising resources of plant growth promotion and biological control via genetic engineering.

Evaluation of the Antibacterial Material Production in the Fermentation of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens-9 from Whitespotted Bamboo Shark ( Chiloscyllium plagiosum). Mar Drugs 2020; 18:md18020119. [PMID: 32085415 PMCID: PMC7073760 DOI: 10.3390/md18020119] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/11/2019] [Revised: 02/05/2020] [Accepted: 02/13/2020] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Bacillus amyloliquefaciens-9 (GBacillus-9), which is isolated from the intestinal tract of the white-spotted bamboo shark (Chiloscyllium plagiosum), can secrete potential antibacterial materials, such as β-1,3-1,4-glucanase and some antimicrobial peptides. However, the low fermentation production has hindered the development of GBacillus-9 as biological additives. In this study, the Plackett–Burman design and response surface methodology were used to optimize the fermentation conditions in a shake flask to obtain a higher yield and antibacterial activity of GBacillus-9. On the basis of the data from medium screening, M9 medium was selected as the basic medium for fermentation. The data from the single-factor experiment showed that sucrose had the highest antibacterial activity among the 10 carbon sources. The Plackett–Burman design identified sucrose, NH4Cl, and MgSO4 as the major variables altering antibacterial activity. The optimal concentrations of these compounds to enhance antibacterial activity were assessed using the central composite design. Data showed that sucrose, NH4Cl, and MgSO4 had the highest antibacterial activities at concentrations of 64.8, 1.84, and 0.08 g L−1, respectively. The data also showed that the optimal fermentation conditions for the antibacterial material production of GBacillus-9 were as follows: Inoculum volume of 5%, initial pH of 7.0, temperature of 36 °C, rotating speed of 180 rpm, and fermentation time of 10 h. The optimal fermentation medium and conditions achieved to improve the yield of antibacterial materials for GBacillus-9 can enhance the process of developing biological additives derived from GBacillus-9.

Effect of biological additives on Japanese eel (Anguilla japonica) growth performance, digestive enzymes activity and immunology. FISH & SHELLFISH IMMUNOLOGY 2019; 84:704-710. [PMID: 30359751 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2018.10.048] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2018] [Revised: 10/09/2018] [Accepted: 10/20/2018] [Indexed: 06/08/2023]
Abstract
Japanese eel (Anguilla japonica) has become a commercially important fish species all over the world. High-density aquaculture has led to congestion and contributed to bacterial infection outbreaks that have caused high mortality. Therefore a 56-days feeding trial was conducted to determine the effects of dietary Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (GB-9) and Yarrowia lipolytica lipase2 (YLL2) on growth performance, digestive enzymes activity, innate immunity and resistance to pathogens of A. japonica. Fish growth performance was significantly affected by dietary YLL2 supplementation but not by GB-9. Fish fed diets with YLL2 at 2.0 g/kg diet in combination of high and low levels of GB-9 (5.0 g/kg and 2.0 g/kg) produced the highest growth. For digestive enzyme, lipase and trypsin activities was promoted by dietary containing YLL2, while amylase activities was increased by dietary containing YLL2, GB-9 single or combination. For innate immunity, the mucus lysozyme activity, leukocytes phagocytosis activity and reactive oxygen species level of skin, peroxidase and lysozyme activity of serum were enhanced in fish fed with GB-9 compared to those in control group (p < 0.05). The highest resistance to Vibrio anguillarum and Aeromonas hydrophila was determined in fish fed with 5.0 g kg-1 GB-9 + 2.0 g/kg YLL2. This study demonstrated that GB-9 and YLL2 enhanced non-specific immune defense system of A. japonica, providing them with higher resistance to pathogens. The present results suggested that the combination of these supplements could be considered as potential biological additives for aquaculture farmed fish.
