Antifungal Substances Produced by Xenorhabdus bovienii and Its Inhibition Mechanism against Fusarium solani.

ABSTRACT: Fungal colonization can severely damage artifacts. Nematode endosymbiotic bacteria exhibit good prospects in protecting artifacts from fungal damage. We previously found that supernatant from the fermentation of nematode endosymbiotic bacterium, Xenorhabdus bovienii, is effective in inhibiting the growth of Fusarium solani NK-NH1, the major disease fungus in the Nanhai No.1 Shipwreck. Further experiments proved that X. bovienii produces volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that inhibit NK-NH1. Here, using metabolomic analysis, GC-MS, and transcriptomic analysis, we explored the antifungal substances and VOCs produced by X. bovienii and investigated the mechanism underlying its inhibitory effect against NK-NH1. We show that X. bovienii produces several metabo
