Fue investigada la actividad antagónica in vitro de un total de 51 cepas pertenecientes a 16 géneros fúngicos detectados con mayor frecuencia en el filoplano del centeno, arroz y maíz.El antagonismo fue observado con el método de los cultivos duales en medios con agar, entre estos hongos y los fitopatógenos: Drechslera oryzae, Pyricularia oryzae y Helminthosporium maydis. Los más antagónicos son: Penicillium chrysogenum, P. thomii y Stachybotrys atra; ellos antagonizaron en particular con Botrytis cinerea, Fusarium moniliforme y Alternaria alternata. El antagonismo más exitoso contra los tres patógenos mencionados fue con P. chrysogenum y P. charlesii, quienes fueron notoriamente activos. Las cepas de Chaetomium globosum, Gibberella zeae, Fusarium moniliforme, Trichothecium roseum y B. cinerea presentan una actividad antagónica contra H. maydis; Cladosporium cladosporioides contra P. oryzae y D. oryzae; Aspergillus clavatus frente a D. oryzae. Los resultados son discutidos en relación al control biológico de estos patógenos de cereales

Pseudomonas species are metabolically robust, with capacity to produce secondary metabolites including cyclic lipopeptides (CLPs). Herein we conducted a chemical analysis of a crude CLP extract from the cocoyam rhizosphere-derived biocontrol strain Pseudomonas sp. COW3. We performed in silico analyses on its whole genome, and conducted in vitro antagonistic assay using the strain and purified CLPs. Via LC-MS and NMR, we elucidated the structures of four novel members of the bananamide group, named bananamides D-G. Besides variability in fatty acid length, bananamides D-G differ from previously described bananamides A-C and MD-0066 by the presence of a serine and aspartic acid at position 6 and 2, respectively. In addition, bananamide G has valine instead of isoleucine at position 8. Kendrick mass defect (KMD) allowed the assignment of molecular formulae to bananamides D and E. We unraveled a non-ribosomal peptide synthetase cluster banA, banB and banC which encodes the novel bananamide derivatives. Furthermore, COW3 displayed antagonistic activity and mycophagy against Pythium myriotylum, while it mainly showed mycophagy on Pyricularia oryzae. Purified bananamides D-G inhibited the growth of P. myriotylum and P. oryzae and caused hyphal distortion. Our study shows the complementarity of chemical analyses and genome mining in the discovery and elucidation of novel CLPs. In addition, structurally diverse bananamides differ in their antimicrobial activity.

Botrytis cinerea causes substantial losses in tomato and chili pepper crops worldwide. Endophytes have shown the potential for the biological control of diseases. The colonization ability of native endophyte strains of Beauveria bassiana and their antifungal effect against B. cinerea were evaluated in Solanaceae crops. Root drenching with B. bassiana was applied, and endophytic colonization capacity in roots, stems, and leaves was determined. The antagonistic activity was evaluated using in vitro dual culture and also plants by drenching the endophyte on the root and by pathogen inoculation in the leaves. Ten native strains were endophytes of tomato, and eight were endophytes of chili pepper. All strains showed significant in vitro antagonism against B. cinerea (30–36%). A high antifungal effect was observed, and strains RGM547 and RGM644 showed the lowest percentage of the surface affected by the pathogen. Native strains of B. bassiana colonized tomato and chili pepper tissues and provided important levels of antagonism against B. cinerea.

Baseline sensitivity values of important phytopathogenic fungi were studied against fungicides. ED50, ED90 and MIC value of propiconazole for, Colletotrichum capsici, and Gloeosporium ampelophagum was in the range of 0.020-0.04 μg/ml. ED50 values of tebuconazole for Alternaria alternata was 30.0 μg/ml. Azoxystrobin was also tested for its ED50, ED90 and MIC values against Alternaria alternata, C. capsici, G. ampelophagum and Botrytis cinerea where the values were in the range of 0.019-50.0, 0.03-60.0 and 0.2-100.0 μg/ml respectively. Baseline sensitivity values are important for the management of plant diseases and resistance development.

Cabai (Capsicum annuum L.) merupakan salah satu komoditas hortikultura penting di Indonesia. Infeksi cendawan patogen terbawa benih merupakan salah satu kendala yang menyebabkan rendahnya produksi cabai. Cendawan patogen terbawa benih cabai umumnya adalah Aspergillus flavus, A. niger, A. fumigatus, Alternaria alternata, Drechslera hawiinesis, Fusarium moniliforme, F. oxysporum, dan F. solani yang dapat menjadi sumber inokulum utama penyebab penyakit di lapangan. Salah satu pengendalian yang ramah lingkungan adalah dengan menggunakan cendawan endofit. Cendawan endofit telah diketahui dapat menghambat pertumbuhan cendawan patogen. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kemampuan metabolit cendawan endofit yang dapat menghambat pertumbuhan cendawan patogen terbawa benih cabai. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah isolasi cendawan endofit dari tanaman cabai dan cendawan patogen terbawa benih cabai, seleksi cendawan endofit dengan uji patogenisitas dan uji penghambatan cendawan endofit terhadap cendawan patogen. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa 2 dari 42 isolat cendawan endofit yang diperoleh berpotensi menghambat pertumbuhan cendawan patogen terbawa benih cabai yaitu CECL 19 dan CECL 38.

The present work aims to isolate actinomycete bacteria with antagonistic abilities towards Botrytis cinerea, the causal agent of gray mold, from a soil sample collected from the rhizosphere of a healthy tomato grove. In vitro confrontation led to the isolation of 104 actinomycete isolates; fifteen isolates have shown the most significant mortality rate of the mycelial growth of B. cinerea (>50%). Based on the results of this screening, representative strains were selected to verify their in vivo antagonistic activity on tomato fruits; the reduction of B. cinerea has a percentage ranging from 52.38% to 96.19%. Furthermore, the actinomycete isolates were evaluated for their plant growth-promoting (PGP) properties and their ability to produce biocontrol-related extracellular enzymes viz., amylase, protease, cellulase, chitinase, esterases, and lecithinase. Indeed, Ac70 showed high β-1,3-glucanase activity and siderophore production (17U/ml and 43% respectively), and the highest chitinase activity (39μmol/ml) was observed for Ac24. These results indicated that these actinomycetes might potentially control gray mold caused by B. cinerea on tomato fruits. Investigations on enhancing the efficacy and survival of the biocontrol agent in planta and finding out the best formulation are recommended for future research.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the survival rate and effective antagonistic activity against Botrytis cinerea, responsible for grey mould on harvested fruits and vegetables, of yeast Rhodotorula mucilaginosa, isolated and identified from the natural microbiota of murta (Chilean guava) berries, after spray drying at different inlet air temperatures, mass per volume ratio of encapsulating agent (maltodextrin) and feed flow rates. The 100 % survival of the yeast was obtained after spray drying with 18 % maltodextrin at 130 °C inlet temperature and a feed flow rate of 9.25 mL/min. The dried yeast obtained under such conditions had the highest antagonistic activity in vitro and in vivo on apples, which showed that spray drying is a valid method to produce active dried cells of R. mucilaginosa that can be used for biocontrol of grey mould spoilage. It was also found that the encapsulating agent maltodextrin improved the in vitro antagonistic activity of R. mucilaginosa.
