Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of agricultural microorganism technology, and particularly relates to a peach blossom mountain bacillus and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Citrus is one of the main economic crops in China, and China is one of the world's major citrus producing countries. In the southern region of China, citrus is the most widely planted fruit tree with the most important economic status. Citrus penicillium disease, citrus soot disease, citrus anthracnose disease and citrus gray mold disease are common diseases of citrus.

[0003] Citrus penicillium disease is caused by Penicillium italicum. In the early stage of the disease, the fruit peel softens, water stains, and is easily broken with light pressure. After that, many aerial hyphae grow on the surface of the lesion, forming a thick white mold layer, which expands rapidly into a white nearly round mold spot. Then green or greenish powder grows from the middle of the mold spot. The pathogen of penicillium disease is widespread around the world, and generally saprophytic on various organic matter, producing a large number of conidia which are transmitted by air flow, and invading citrus fruits through wounds. During storage and transportation, it can also be infected through contact between healthy and diseased fruits. The rotting of fruits produces a large amount of carbon dioxide, which is absorbed by water vapor in the air to produce dilute carbonic acid to corrode the fruit peel and make the fruit surface pH acidic, promoting the invasion of the pathogen and leading to a large number of rotten fruits.

[0004] Citrus soot disease is a common disease that occurs on citrus, which is generally caused by a variety of saprophytic and parasitic fungi, and the common anamorphic state includes Cladosporium etc. Citrus soot disease mainly damages leaves, branches and fruits; in the early stage of the disease, a layer of dark brown small mold spots appears on the diseased part, which gradually expands until a black or dark brown mold layer with scattered black spots is formed; when it occurs seriously, a thick layer of soot covers the surface of citrus leaves, branches and fruits, hindering photosynthesis, weakening tree vigor, accelerating water transpiration of the tree, causing leaf curling and shedding, less flowering and fruiting, and even causing dead trees and destroyed orchards.

[0005] Citrus anthracnose disease, commonly known as peel disease, mainly damages leaves, branches, flowers, fruits, fruit stalks and seedlings, often causing leaf and shoot wilting, flower and fruit drop and fruit rot. Citrus anthracnose disease occurs in all parts of China, affecting yield and quality, and causing dead trees and destroyed orchards when it occurs seriously.

[0006] Citrus gray mold disease refers to the disease caused by the infection of citrus with Botrytis cinerea. The pathogen of the disease is Botrytis cinerea. It mainly damages petals, young leaves, young fruits and branches, causing flower rot, branch wilting and reduced fruit setting rate. The damaged petals will have water spots at the early stage, and will rot and produce a gray mold layer at the later stage; the damaged leaves and branches will gradually wither; the young fruit lesions, flower petals and fruits will swell, affecting the appearance of the fruits; when the mature fruits start to grow, they will turn brown and soft, covered with a gray mold layer, and will fall off after drying and losing water.

[0007] Protease is one of the three major enzyme preparations in the world, which is widely used in medicine, food, brewing, tanning, feed, paint and other industries, and plays a positive role in economy, society, environmental protection and other aspects. Protease widely exists in animals, plants and microorganisms. Among them, the microorganism protease is mainly produced by molds, bacteria, followed by yeasts and actinomycetes. Some protease-producing microorganisms can also be used for environmental purification, and play a biological repair function by degrading harmful chemicals and toxic substances.

[0008] There are few microbial strains disclosed in the prior art that can produce protease and inhibit plant pathogenic bacteria. Therefore, it is of great significance for the development of agricultural industry and environmental protection in China to isolate and screen microbial strains that can produce protease and inhibit plant pathogenic bacteria (especially can inhibit common citrus diseases).

[0097] Based on the morphological, physiological and biochemical, and biomolecular identification results of strain GD1, strain GD1 was classified as Paenibacillus taohuashanense and named Paenibacillus taohuashanense GD1. It was deposited on January 19, 2024, at the Guangdong Provincial Center for Microbial Culture Collection, located at 5th Floor, Building 59, No. 100 Courtyard, Xianlie Middle Road, Guangzhou, China, with accession number GDMCC No. 64296.

[0098] Example 2: Protease production capacity of Paenibacillus taohuashanense GD1 strain

[0099] 1. Preparation of fermentation broth for GD1 strain

[0100] (1) Activate the GD1 strain stored at -80℃, pick out the activated single colony and streak it on LB solid medium, and incubate at 28℃ for 48h.

[0101] (2) Pick a single colony after culturing in step (1) and put it into LB liquid medium. Shake and incubate at 28℃ and 180rpm for 24h to obtain the seed liquid of strain GD1.

[0102] (3) At an inoculation ratio of 1:100 between the seed culture and LB liquid medium, the seed culture of strain GD1 was added to LB liquid medium and incubated at 28°C and 180 rpm for 12 hours to obtain the fermentation broth of strain GD1. The concentration of this fermentation broth was determined to be approximately 7 × 10⁻⁶. 6 cfu / mL.

[0103] 2. Determination of protease production capacity of GD1 strain

[0104] Take 5 μL of the fermentation broth of strain GD1 prepared in step 1 and spot it onto the protease detection medium. Incubate at 28°C for 24 h and observe whether a transparent hydrolysis zone is formed.

[0105] See results Figure 4 ,from Figure 4 As can be seen, the GD1 strain can produce obvious transparent hydrolysis zones on the protease detection medium, and can produce transparent zones with a diameter of about 1.83±0.8cm in just 24 hours of culture, which proves that the Peach Bacillus pyrifolia GD1 strain has good protease production ability.

[0106] Example 3: Antibacterial effect of Paenibacillus taohuashanense GD1 strain

[0107] 1. Preparation of GD1 strain fermentation broth

[0108] The specific method is the same as that in Example 2.

[0109] 2. Determination of the bacteriostatic effect of GD1 strain

[0110] Common plant pathogens, i.e., Penicillium italicum, Cladosporium cladosporioides, Colletotrichum fructicola and Botrytis cinerea (laboratory isolated, identified and preserved) were used as indicator bacteria. Four-point confrontation method was used. The indicator bacteria were punched into a bacterial cake and placed for inoculation in the center of a PDA plate. The GD1 strain fermentation broth prepared in step 1 was dropped onto four points about 2.5 cm away from the bacterial cake, 5 μL of GD1 strain fermentation broth per point. The control group was dropped with the same amount of ddH2O, and three replicates were set. Cultured at 28°C until the control grew to 2 / 3 of the plate, the bacteriostatic condition and the size of the inhibition zone were observed. The colony diameter was recorded, and the bacteriostatic rate was calculated. The calculation formula of the bacteriostatic rate is as follows:

[0111] Bacteriostatic rate (%) = (control colony diameter - treatment colony diameter) / control colony diameter x 100%

[0112] The results are shown in Table 2, Figures 5-8 As can be seen from the figure, the GD1 strain has good inhibition effect on the four plant pathogenic fungi: Penicillium italicum, Cladosporium cladosporioides, Colletotrichum fructicola and Botrytis cinerea, with inhibition rates of 88% for Penicillium italicum, 72.77% for Cladosporium cladosporioides, 52.25% for Colletotrichum fructicola and 74.5% for Botrytis cinerea, indicating that the GD1 strain has good broad-spectrum bacteriostatic effect and can be used as a biocontrol agent for the prevention and control of plant diseases.

[0113] Table 2. Bacteriostatic effect of GD1 strain

[0114]

[0115] Example 4. Determination of the prevention and control effect of Paenibacillus taohuashanense GD1 strain

[0116] 1. Preparation of GD1 strain fermentation broth

[0117] The specific method is the same as in Example 2;

[0118] 2. Determination of the control effect of GD1 strain

[0119] (1) Take fresh tangerines, soak them in a 5% sodium hypochlorite solution for 1 minute, then rinse them three times with sterile water and air dry them naturally.

[0120] (2) Remove the stems from the disinfected mandarins, inoculate them with a 5mm mycelium cake of Penicillium italicum (same as in Example 3), cover the mycelium cake with sterile cotton, drip sterile water onto the cotton to keep it moist, place it in a 26℃ incubator, maintain humidity of 60-70%, and remove the cotton after 1 day.

[0121] (3) One control group and four treatment groups were set up. The control group was sprayed with water, while the treatment groups were sprayed with 2 mL of the original fermentation broth of GD1 strain (prepared in step (1)), 10-fold diluted fermentation broth of GD1 strain, 20-fold diluted fermentation broth of GD1 strain, and 50-fold diluted fermentation broth of GD1 strain, respectively. Three replicates were set up for each group. After 4 days, the incidence of disease in the treatment group and the control group was compared and photographed for statistical analysis.

[0122] Depend on Figure 9 It can be seen that the tangerines treated with water developed the disease normally, while those sprayed with the bacterial solution remained normal and showed no signs of disease. Therefore, the fermentation broth of strain GD1 has a strong control effect on citrus Penicillium rot, achieving a 100% control efficacy.

[0123] In summary, this invention has isolated a Paenibacillus taohuashanense GD1 strain, which exhibits good protease production capacity and can be used for plant growth promotion. Simultaneously, this strain also possesses broad-spectrum antibacterial activity, showing good inhibitory effects against various plant pathogenic fungi, such as Penicillium italicum, Cladosporium cladosporioides, Colletotrichum fructicola, and Botrytis cinerea, demonstrating significant inhibitory effects.
