Endophytic and antagonistic <i>Bacillus amyloliquefaciens</i> 8SE-IF1-derived nanoparticles encumber phytopathogenic oomycetes, fungi, bacteria, and viruses with enhanced growth in tomato seedlings.

ABSTRACT: Green synthesis of nanoparticles (Gs-NPs) of antimicrobial compounds from endophytic and antagonistic microbes is a novel strategy for managing plant diseases caused by different pathogens. The present study aims to green synthesize the NPs of water-diffusible antimicrobial metabolites (WDM) from the antagonistic and endophytic bacterial strain Bacillus amyloliquefaciens 8SE-IF1 (Ba-8SE-IF1) against phytopathogenic oomycetes, fungi, bacteria, and viruses infecting tomato plants. The water-diffusible extract (WDE) of Ba-8SE-IF1 significantly inhibited the mycelial growth of Pythium aphanidermatum (44.6%), Phytophthora nicotianae (60.1%), Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici (65.5%), and Colletotrichum gloeosporioides (66.7%) in poison
