ABSTRACT This research aimed to examine the co‐culture of two Bacillus species in order enhance damping‐off disease control kale plants. The microbial vallismortis strain TU‐Orga21 and B. subtilis TU‐Orga1 significantly inhibited Pythium aphanidermatum DOA compared single strains, reducing mycelium growth by up 39.26% causing deformations hyphal structures. Synchrotron radiation‐based Fourier‐transform infrared (SR‐FTIR) microspectroscopy was used investigate biochemical changes P. mycelia showed lowest polysaccharide content (cellulose β‐glucans) after being treated with co‐culture. In addition, use matrix‐assisted laser desorption ionisation dual time‐of‐flight tandem mass spectrometry (MALDI‐TOF/TOF MS) high‐performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) evaluate lipopeptides TU‐Orga21, their revealed that interactions between microorganisms resulted an approximately 350% increase production iturin A, which has plant pathogen‐inhibiting ability. Additionally, both strains produce surfactin, quantifiable levels detected all treatments, further supporting potential as a biocontrol consortium. A greenhouse study confirmed treating plants co‐culture, applied twice before inoculation, effectively controlled damping‐off, achieving results equal metalaxyl treatment, 100% reduction incidence, more effective than using either alone. Moreover, application promoted greater canopy width height positive negative controls. Together, these findings indicate beneficial bacteria can be anti‐oomycete promote for enhanced biological control.

Abstract In plants, recognition between resistance gene ( R ) and virus induces a local hypersensitive response (HR), which is accompanied by systemic acquired (SAR). The dominant N in tobacco confers to mosaic (TMV) at both locally inoculated tissues systemically infected tissues. However, the mechanisms underlying HR- SAR-mediated viral inhibition are not fully revealed. this study, we find that Nicotiana glutinosa RNA-binding protein (NgRBP) an RNA silencing suppressor enhances TMV-triggered HR. Stronger HR could result stronger as well SAR. Enhanced leaves induced NgRBP compromised transient expression of NahG . These results indicate activated plays crucial role resistance.
