The invention discloses Empedobacter faecalis GXUN3754 and an application thereof in prevention and treatment of root-knot
nematode of Penniospermum erythrorhizon, and belongs to the technical field of
microorganism application. The Empedobacter faecalis GXUN3754 provided by the invention is preserved in the China General
Microbiological Culture Collection Center on February 27, 2024, and the preservation number of the Empedobacter faecalis GXUN3754 is CGMCC (China General
Microbiological Culture Collection Center) No. 29873. Experiments show that the Empedobacter faecalis GXUN3754 has the capabilities of producing
siderophore, NH3,
protease and
phytase, and the Empedobacter faecalis GXUN3754 bacterial liquid and volatile substances have the effect of promoting
plant growth, and also have the capability of killing the root-knot
nematode of
Penicillium spp. Therefore, the Empedobacter faecalis GXUN3754 has very important significance in research and development of novel biological preparations and
plant growth promoters capable of efficiently killing the
Pennisetum alopecuroides root-knot
nematode.
