One major issue in reducing cucumber yield is the destructive disease Cucumber ( Cucumis sativus L.) wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cucumerinum Foc ). When using isolate VJH504 isolated from rhizosphere soil and identified as Bacillus velezensis , growth of double culture experiment was effectively inhibited. Phenotypic, phylogenetic, genomic analyses were conducted to enhance understanding its biocontrol mechanism. According result phenotype analysis, B. could inhibit fusarium both vitro vivo significantly promote seed germination seedling growth. Additionally, tests growth-promoting characteristics revealed secretion proteases, amylases, β-1,3-glucanases, cellulases, well siderophores indole-3-acetic acid VJH504. Using PacBio Sequel II system, we applied complete genome sequencing for obtained a single circular chromosome with size 3.79 Mb. A phylogenetic tree constructed based on 16S rRNA gene sequences 13 other species, Average Nucleotide Identity (ANI) analysis performed their whole-genome sequences, confirming isolateVJH504 . Following this, sequence od VJH504, specific functional Carbohydrate-Active Enzymes (CAZymes) secondary metabolite carried out, predicting organism’s abilities biofilm formation, production antifungal CAZymes, synthesis antagonistic metabolites against pathogens. Afterwards, comparative between three strains, revealing subtle differences suggesting potential discovery novel antimicrobial substances In conclusion, mechanism controlling predicted appear that VJH504is promising agent, showcasing excellent application agricultural production.

Abstract The role of rhizosphere microbiota in the resistance tomato plant against soil-borne Fusarium wilt disease (FWD) remains unclear. Here, we showed that FWD incidence was significantly negatively correlated with diversity both bacterial and fungal communities. Using microbiological culturomic approach, selected 205 unique strains to construct different synthetic communities (SynComs), which were inoculated into germ-free seedlings, their roles suppressing monitored using omics approach. Cross-kingdom (fungi bacteria) SynComs most effective than those Fungal or Bacterial alone. This effect underpinned by a combination molecular mechanisms related immunity microbial interactions contributed study provides new insight dynamics pathogen suppression host interactions. Also, formulation manipulation for functional complementation constitute beneficial strategy controlling disease.

One of the most destructive disease tomato is Fusarium wilt caused by soil borne fungus called F. oxysporum.In this study, anti-Fusarium capabilities foliar application endophytes extracts have been investigated on under challenges. Antifungal assay, inhibition conidial germination, severity, photosynthetic pigments, osmolytes, secondary metabolites, oxidative stress, peroxidase (POD) polyphenol oxidases (PPO) isozymes were tested for potential resistance growing infection.Ethyl acetate A. flavus MZ045563, fumigatus MZ045562 nidulans MZ045561 exhibited antifungal activity toward oxysporum where zone diameters 15, 12 20 mm, respectively. Moreover, all isolates at concentration 7.5 mg/mL reduced conidia germination 94.4 100%. infection a effects plant, high severity desiese index 84.37%, reduction in growth parameters, soluble protein. However, contents proline, total phenol, malondialdehyde (MDA), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) antioxidant enzymes increased plants grown wilt.
