Isolation and Identification of <i>Burkholderia stagnalis</i> YJ-2 from the Rhizosphere Soil of <i>Woodsia ilvensis</i> to Explore Its Potential as a Biocontrol Agent Against Plant Fungal Diseases.

ABSTRACT: Plant fungal diseases remain a major threat to global agricultural production, necessitating eco-friendly and sustainable strategies. Conventional chemical fungicides often lead to the development of resistant pathogen strains and cause environmental contamination. Therefore, the development of biocontrol agents is particularly important. In this study, we identified Burkholderia stagnalis YJ-2 from the rhizosphere soil of Woodsia ilvensis as a promising biocontrol strain using 16S rRNA and whole-genome sequencing. This strain demonstrated broad-spectrum antifungal activity against plant fungal pathogens, with its bioactive extracts maintaining high stability across a temperature range of 25-100 °C and pH range of 2-12. We used in vitro assays to further show that the metabol
