Abstract:

In order to broaden the resources of microbial biocontrol agents and to develop biocontrol strains with high efficacy in the control of Pyricularia oryzae, the present study was conducted to screen a strain KH-19 with a good antagonistic effect from the inter-root soil of rice. The strain was identified by morphological observation, physiological and biochemical tests, and 16S rDNA sequencing. The inhibitory activity was determined by the oxford cup method and the plate stand-off method. The effectiveness of the strain was tested against P. oryzae in pots. The results showed that the KH-19 strain was Paenibacillus polymyxa, which had bacteriostatic effects on three strains of Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853, and Pectobacterium carotovorum BC2, and also had good antagonistic effects on other six pathogenic bacteria and eight pathogenic fungi, and its inhibition rate reached 63.67% against P. oryzae. The results of the pot test showed that the disease index of P. oryzae decreased with the increase of the concentration of P. polymyxa KH-19, and the disease index of P. polymyxa on the 20th day of inoculation reached 78.11% when the concentration of the bacterial suspension was 106-107 cfu/mL. The results showed that P. polymyxa KH-19 had potential application value as a biocontrol strain with broad-spectrum inhibitory activity against P. oryzae.
