The application of <i>Bacillus amyloliquefaciens</i> and Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi displays curative effects on Citrus Huanglongbing.

ABSTRACT: Huanglongbing (HLB) is a severe citrus disease that results in significant yield loss, caused by the phloem-dwelling pathogen Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas). Currently, antibiotics including penicillin, chloromycetin, and streptomycin are extensively utilized for the control of HLB in citrus production. However, various issues have emerged following the application of antibiotics, including the development of resistant microorganisms in soil and the accumulation of antibiotic residues in fruits. Consequently, there is an urgent need for alternative environmentally friendly methods for HLB control. In this study, the curative effects of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens strain HN11 and Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) on HLB were investigated. The HN11 strain and A
