Unlocking antagonistic potential of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens KRS005 to control gray mold.

ABSTRACT: To establish a safe, efficient, and simple biocontrol measure for gray mold disease caused by Botrytis cinerea, the basic characteristics and antifungal activity of KRS005 were studied from multiple aspects including morphological observation, multilocus sequence analysis and typing (MLSA-MLST), physical-biochemical assays, broad-spectrum inhibitory activities, control efficiency of gray mold, and determination of plant immunity. The strain KRS005, identified as Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, demonstrated broad-spectrum inhibitory activities against various pathogenic fungi by dual confrontation culture assays, of which the inhibition rate of B. cinerea was up to 90.3%. Notably, through the evaluation of control efficiency, it was found that KRS005 fermentation broth coul
