Biocontrol mechanisms of Bacillus: Improving the efficiency of green agriculture

Microbial Biotechnology, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 16(12), P. 2250 - 2263

Published: Oct. 14, 2023

Abstract Species of the genus Bacillus have been widely used for biocontrol plant diseases in demand sustainable agricultural development. New mechanisms underlying activity revealed with development microbiome and microbe‐plant interaction research. In this review, we first briefly introduce typical mechanisms, such as production antimicrobial compounds, competition niches/nutrients, induction systemic resistance. Then, discussed detail new pathogen quorum sensing interference reshaping soil microbiota. The “cry help” mechanism was also introduced, which plants can release specific signals under attack to recruit root colonization against invasion. Finally, two emerging strategies enhancing efficacy agents, including construction synthetic microbial consortia application rhizosphere‐derived prebiotics, were proposed.

Fusaric acid mediates the assembly of disease-suppressive rhizosphere microbiota via induced shifts in plant root exudates

Nature Communications, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 15(1)

Published: June 15, 2024

Abstract The plant health status is determined by the interplay of plant-pathogen-microbiota in rhizosphere. Here, we investigate this tripartite system focusing on pathogen Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici (FOL) and tomato plants as a model system. First, explore differences genotype resistance to FOL potentially associated with differential recruitment plant-protective rhizosphere taxa. Second, show production fusaric acid trigger systemic changes microbiota. Specifically, molecule have opposite effects disease-suppressive taxa resistant susceptible genotypes. Last, elucidate that induce root exudation direct specific Our study unravels mechanism mediating assembly disease suppression integrating physiological responses microbial-mediated mechanisms

Strategies for tailoring functional microbial synthetic communities

The ISME Journal, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 18(1)

Published: Jan. 1, 2024

Abstract Natural ecosystems harbor a huge reservoir of taxonomically diverse microbes that are important for plant growth and health. The vast diversity soil microorganisms their complex interactions make it challenging to pinpoint the main players life support functions can provide plants, including enhanced tolerance (a)biotic stress factors. Designing simplified microbial synthetic communities (SynComs) helps reduce this complexity unravel molecular chemical basis interplay specific microbiome functions. While SynComs have been successfully employed dissect or reproduce microbiome-associated phenotypes, assembly reconstitution these often based on generic abundance patterns taxonomic identities co-occurrences but only rarely informed by functional traits. Here, we review recent studies designing reveal common principles discuss multidimensional approaches community design. We propose strategy tailoring design integration high-throughput experimental assays with strains computational genomic analyses capabilities.

Abstract Background Plant microbiota contributes to plant growth and health, including enhancing resistance various diseases. Despite remarkable progress in understanding diseases plants, the precise role of rhizosphere watermelon against soil-borne remains unclear. Here, we constructed a synthetic community (SynCom) 16 core bacterial strains obtained from grafted plants. We further simplified SynCom investigated bacteria with synergistic interactions promoting through simple community. Results Our results demonstrated that significantly enhanced disease ungrafted grown non-sterile soil. Furthermore, analysis amplicon metagenome data revealed pivotal Pseudomonas as evidenced by significant increase relative abundance biofilm-forming pathways post-SynCom inoculation. Based on vitro co-culture experiments metabolomic analysis, selected along seven other members exhibited effects . It enabled us refine initially into comprising eight species. Notably, plant-promoting were similar those initial SynCom. protected plants bacteria. Conclusions findings suggest proliferate mitigate microbial interactions, highlighting potential between microorganisms health.

Plant Diversity Reduces the Risk of Antibiotic Resistance Genes in Agroecosystems

Advanced Science, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: Jan. 28, 2025

Abstract Despite advances in dispersal mechanisms and risk assessment of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), how plants influence ARG contamination agricultural soils remains underexplored. Here, the impacts plant species diversity on ARGs mobile genetic elements (MGEs) three are comprehensively investigated a pot experiment. The results indicate that increased reduces MGEs abundance by 19.2%–51.2%, whereas exhibit inconsistent soil‐dependent effects. Potential bacterial hosts harboring abundant have greater relative than nonhosts, both their richness cumulative reduced diversity. Notably, inhibited present other hosts. enriched compounds root exudates due to play more important role metabolic network contribute rebalancing potential nonhosts. An independent test using pure organics reveals higher resource diversity, resulting from mobility high‐risk ARGs. This study highlights resource‐mediated mitigation risks posed indicates ensuring is promising strategy for controlling agroecosystems.
