Embodiment 1

[0172] Example 1. Selection of Paenibacillus sp. NRRL B-50972

[0173]The genomes of several Paenibacillus species strains were sequenced. Genomic data were analyzed to identify strains with the fusaridin biosynthesis gene cluster but lacking the polymyxin synthase gene cluster. Like the polymyxin synthase gene cluster, the gene cluster responsible for fusaridin biosynthesis (fusA) has been previously identified and characterized. See, e.g., Li et al., "Nonnbosomal Biosynthesis of Fusaricidins by Paenibacillus polymyxa PKB 1 Involves Direct Activation of a D-Amino Acid," Chemistry & Biology, 15:118-127 (2008); Li et al., "Promoter Analysis and Transcription Regulation of fus GeneCluster Responsible for Fusaricidin Synthesis of Paenibacillus polymyxa SQR-21,"Applied Microbiol Biotechnol,97:9479-9489 (2013); and Choi et al, "Identification of a Polymyxin Synthetase Gene Cluster of Paenibacillus polymyxa and Heterolibus in the Baceroloous Expression of "Journal of Bacteriology,...

Embodiment 2

[0175] Example 2. In-Plant Antifungal Activity of Paenibacillus Species Strain Whole Culture Solution

[0176] Selected Paenibacillus sp. strains, including Paenibacillus sp. strain NRRL B-50972, were grown in soybean-based media to produce whole broth cultures. Distilled water was added to each whole culture to make a final dilution of 10%.

[0177] Diluted whole broths were applied to leaves of young plants, which were subsequently exposed to fungal inoculums of tomato late blight (PHYTIN), botrytis cinerea (BOTRCI) or wheat leaf rust (PUCCRT). An untreated control was included in each assay for comparison. Several days after exposure to the fungal inoculum, each plant was scored for percent pathogen control relative to untreated control plants. Each treatment was evaluated three times, and the average control percentage of the whole culture solution of each Paenibacillus strain was as follows: figure 1 shown.

Embodiment 3

[0179] Example 3. In Vitro Bioefficacy of Paenibacillus sp. Strain NRRL B-50972 Fusacidin Extract

[0180] Whole broth cultures of several Paenibacillus sp. strains, including Paenibacillus sp. strain NRRL B-50972, were prepared using soybean-based media. A lipophilic fraction containing fusaricidin was extracted from whole culture broth. Three separate fractions (i.e., Fraction 1, Fraction 2, Fraction 3) containing various Fusaridin and antifungal metabolites were prepared from whole broth extracts from Group 1 Bacillus sp. strains . Extracts from Paenibacillus sp. strain NRRL B-50972 were not further isolated.

[0181] Fusaricidin-containing fractions from each strain were tested against the following 12 fungal pathogens: Alternaria alternata (ALTEAL), Botrytis cinerea (BOTRCI), Fusarium spp. Phytophthora graminis (SEPPTR), Phytophthora graminis (PHYTCR), Phytophthora infestans (PHYTIN), Pythium ultima (PYTHUL), Magnaporthe grisea (PYRIOR), Rice sheath blight (RHIZSO ), ...
