Bacillus velezensis ZN-S10 Reforms the Rhizosphere Microbial Community and Enhances Tomato Resistance to TPN.

ABSTRACT: Tomato pith necrosis (TPN) is a highly destructive disease caused by species of the Pseudomonas genus and other bacteria, resulting in a significant reduction in tomato yield. Members of the genus Bacillus are beneficial microorganisms extensively studied in the rhizosphere. However, in most cases, the potential of Bacillus members in controlling TPN and their impact on the rhizosphere microbial composition remain rarely studied. In this study, Bacillus velezensis ZN-S10 significantly inhibited the growth of Pseudomonas viridiflava ZJUP0398-2, and ZN-S10 controlled TPN with control efficacies of 60.31%. P. viridiflava ZJUP0398-2 significantly altered the richness and diversity of the tomato rhizobacterial community, but pre-inoculation with ZN-S10
