Identification of antagonistic activity against Fusarium, and liquid fermentation of biocontrol Bacillus isolated from wolfberry (Lycium barbarum) rhizosphere soil

Researchers isolated a beneficial bacterium called Bacillus subtilis from wolfberry soil that fights a fungal disease called Fusarium root rot. Through careful optimization of growing conditions, they increased the bacteria’s effectiveness at killing the harmful fungus by about 15%. When added to wolfberry seedlings, this bacterium not only prevented fungal disease but also boosted plant growth significantly.

Bacillus subtilis Strain TCX1 Isolated from Ambrosia artemisiifolia: Enhancing Cucumber Growth and Biocontrol Against Cucumber Fusarium Wilt

Scientists discovered a beneficial bacterium called Bacillus subtilis strain TCX1 that can protect cucumber plants from a devastating fungal disease called Fusarium wilt. This bacterium both kills the fungus directly through special compounds it produces and strengthens the plant’s natural immune system. Additionally, the bacterium helps cucumber plants grow better by producing growth hormones and improving nutrient absorption, making it a promising natural solution for farmers.

Identification of antagonistic activity against Fusarium, and liquid fermentation of biocontrol Bacillus isolated from wolfberry (Lycium barbarum) rhizosphere soil

Researchers isolated a beneficial bacterium called Bacillus subtilis from wolfberry soil that effectively fights a destructive fungal disease called root rot. By optimizing how this bacterium is grown in the laboratory, they increased its ability to inhibit the disease-causing fungus by over 8%. This natural biocontrol approach could help farmers protect their wolfberry crops without relying solely on chemical pesticides.
