[0002] Curcuminoids are widely distributed in plants such as turmeric, turmeric, and calamus, and are a class of natural phenolic antioxidants. The core component, curcumin, has a basic structure consisting of two 4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzene rings linked by a β-diketone group (i.e., a bisα,β-unsaturated ketone, -CH=CH-CO-CH2-CO-CH=CH-).

[0138] Test case
[0139] Antifungal activity assay
[0140] The experimental pathogenic fungi were Magnaphalthe oryzae (rice blast fungus), Rhizoctonia solani (rice sheath blight fungus), Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (sunflower sclerotiorum), Alteraria alternata (tobacco red spot fungus), Cercospora zeae maydis (corn gray spot fungus), Fusarium oxysporum (Fusarium oxysporum), Fusarium graminearum (grass Fusarium), and Rhizoctonia solani (tobacco target spot fungus).
[0141] The antibacterial activity of compounds WY10 and WY24 was tested using a fungal hyphal growth assay, as follows:
[0142] (1) Preparation of culture medium: The test compounds were dissolved in DMSO to prepare a stock solution with a concentration of 50 mmol / L. The stock solution was then added to PDA medium and diluted to prepare PDA medium plates containing the test samples, so that the final concentrations of the test compounds were 40 μmol / L, 60 μmol / L and 80 μmol / L. The PDA medium without any compound was designated as the blank group; the PDA medium containing only DMSO was designated as control group 1; the PDA medium containing 60 μmol / L curcumin was designated as control group 2; the PDA medium containing 40 μmol / L, 60 μmol / L and 80 μmol / L compound WY10 was designated as WY10-1, WY10-2 and WY10-3, respectively; the PDA medium containing 40 μmol / L, 60 μmol / L and 80 μmol / L compound WY24 was designated as WY24-1, WY24-2 and WY24-3, respectively.
[0143] (2) Mycelial growth test of pathogenic fungi: Using a punch, 5mm diameter fungal discs were made at the edge of fresh colonies. Activated pathogenic fungi were inoculated onto different groups of culture media and incubated at 28℃ until the control colonies (without the test drug) nearly filled the plates. The colony diameter was measured using the cross-hatching method (subtracting the 5mm disc diameter). The mycelial growth of the pathogenic fungi was observed and recorded. The results are as follows: Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown.
[0144] Figure 7 The figure shows the results of the test on the inhibition of fungal hyphal growth by compounds WY10 and curcumin.
[0145] Figure 8 The figure shows the results of the test on the inhibition of fungal hyphal growth by compounds WY24 and curcumin.
[0146] from Figure 7 and Figure 8 As can be seen, the solvent DMSO has no inhibitory effect on fungal hyphae, while compounds WY10, WY24 and curcumin all inhibit hyphal growth.
[0147] The formula for calculating the mycelial growth inhibition rate is as follows: Inhibition rate (%) = (C1 - C2) / (C1 - 0.5) × 100
[0148] In the formula: C1 is the diameter of colony 1 in the control group; C2 is the diameter of colony 1 in the drug treatment; 0.5 is the diameter of the bacterial dish.
[0149] Repeat the above operation three times, take the average value to calculate the colony diameter, and the calculation results are shown in Table 1 and Table 2 below.

At a concentration of 60 μmol / L, it showed significant mycelial growth inhibitory activity against *Bacillus oryzae*, *Aureobasidium aizoon*, and *Gnaphalium affine*, with inhibition rates of 25.7%, 32.77%, and 19.2%, respectively. At a concentration of 80 μmol / L, it showed significant mycelial growth inhibitory activity against the pathogenic fungi *Sclerotinia sclerotiorum* and *Fusarium oxysporum*, with inhibition rates of 60.26% and 21.12%, respectively. Furthermore, at the same antifungal concentration, compound WY10 showed significantly better inhibitory effects against *Bacillus oryzae* than curcumin; at 60 μmol / L, curcumin's inhibition rate was 13.51%, while WY10-2 reached 25.7%.

[0155] As shown in Table 2, compound WY24 exhibited significant inhibitory activity against the mycelial growth of most tested pathogenic fungi at a concentration of 40 μmol / L. These pathogens included *Fusarium graminearum*, *Tobacco Target Spot*, *Maize Gray Spot*, *Fusarium oxysporum*, and *Tobacco Red Spot*, with inhibition rates of 51.98%, 49.69%, 41.62%, 17.28%, and 46.14%, respectively. At a concentration of 80 μmol / L, it showed significant inhibitory activity against the pathogenic fungus *Sclerotinia sunflower*. The mycelial growth inhibitory activity was 23.09%; moreover, compound WY24 showed better inhibitory effects than curcumin against all the above-mentioned bacteria, with significantly higher inhibition rates against Fusarium graminearum, Tobacco Target Spot Bacterium, Corn Gray Spot Bacterium, and Fusarium oxysporum. Curcumin's inhibition rates against these bacteria were 21.47%, 34.07%, 17.82%, and 17.42%, respectively, while WY24 reached 42.28%, 68.25%, 47.50%, and 32.82%.
[0156] The above-mentioned fungal mycelial growth test results showed that compounds WY10 and WY24, at a concentration of 80 μmol / L, were able to inhibit the tested pathogenic fungi. Compound WY10 showed significant inhibitory activity against most pathogenic fungi at a concentration of 60 μmol / L; compound WY24 showed significant inhibitory activity against most pathogenic fungi at a concentration of 40 μmol / L. Therefore, these two compounds possess broad-spectrum antifungal activity. Furthermore, compared to curcumin, compounds WY10 and WY24 exhibited superior inhibitory effects against some fungi. WY10 showed a 12.19% higher inhibition rate against *Fusarium graminearum* than curcumin; WY24 showed higher inhibition rates against *Fusarium graminearum*, *Tobacco Target Spot*, *Maize Gray Spot*, and *Fusarium oxysporum* than curcumin by 20.81%, 34.18%, 29.68%, and 15.4%, respectively.
[0157] Antibacterial activity assay
[0158] The experimental pathogens were Xanthomonas oryzaepv. Oryza (bacterial blight of rice), Pseudomonas syringaepv. Tabaci (wildfire of tobacco), Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora (soft rot of Chinese cabbage), and Ralstonia solanacearum (bacterial wilt of tobacco).
[0159] The antibacterial activity of compounds WY10 and WY24 was tested using a bacterial growth rate assay, as follows:
[0160] (1) Preparation of liquid culture medium: The test compound was dissolved in DMSO to prepare a stock solution with a concentration of 50 mmol / L, which was then added to LB culture medium to prepare culture solutions with final concentrations of 40 μmol / L, 60 μmol / L, and 80 μmol / L of the test compound. LB culture medium containing no compound was designated CK; LB culture medium containing only DMSO was designated DMSO; LB culture medium containing 60 μmol / L curcumin was designated C60; LB culture medium containing 40 μmol / L, 60 μmol / L, and 80 μmol / L compound WY10 was designated 10⁻¹, 10⁻², and 10⁻³, respectively; and LB culture medium containing 40 μmol / L, 60 μmol / L, and 80 μmol / L compound WY24 was designated 24⁻¹, 24⁻², and 24⁻³, respectively.
[0161] (2) Pathogenic bacterial growth rate test: Newly activated bacteria were picked and placed in 2 mL of LB culture medium and cultured at 30℃ and 220 rpm for 12 h with shaking. Then, 10 μL of bacterial suspension was taken and mixed with 2 mL of culture medium of different components in step (1). The mixed liquid was then divided into two parts. 1 mL of the liquid was taken to measure the OD600 before culture and recorded as OD1. Another 1 mL of the liquid was placed at 30℃ and cultured at 220 rpm for 16 h with shaking. The OD600 after culture was measured and recorded as OD2. The inhibitory effect of the test compound on the pathogenic bacteria was determined by calculating the OD growth rate of the pathogenic bacteria before and after culture in different treatment groups. The OD value of each bacteria was measured three times, and the average value was taken after calculating the growth rate.
[0162] Figure 9 The graph shows the results of experiments on the antibacterial effects of compounds WY10, WY24, and curcumin on bacterial growth; from Figure 9 It can be seen that the culture medium becomes turbid after incubation, indicating bacterial growth; the turbidity of the DMSO group and the CK group is similar, and DMSO does not inhibit bacterial growth; at the same time, the culture medium treated with compounds WY10, WY24, and curcumin is basically clear or has a lower degree of turbidity, inhibiting bacterial growth.
[0163] The formula for calculating the growth rate is as follows: Growth rate (%) = (OD2 - OD1) / OD1 × 100%
[0164] The calculated bacterial growth rates of compounds WY10 and WY24, and curcumin are shown in Table 3 below:
[0165] Table 3. Bacterial growth rate in culture media containing compounds WY10, WY24, and curcumin.

[0167] Compared with the control group, compounds WY10 and WY24 effectively inhibited the proliferation of rice bacterial blight, tobacco wildfire pathogen, Chinese cabbage soft rot pathogen, and tobacco wilt pathogen at a concentration of 40 μmol / L. Furthermore, the inhibitory activity against pathogenic bacteria significantly increased with the increase of the amount of compounds added to the culture medium. At the same concentration, compound WY10 showed better inhibitory effect on the tested pathogenic bacteria, similar to that of curcumin.
[0168] In summary, compounds WY10 and WY24 exhibit broad-spectrum antibacterial activity, inhibiting a variety of fungi and bacteria. Compared to curcumin, compounds WY10 and WY24 demonstrate superior inhibitory effects against certain fungi. WY10 showed a 12.19% higher inhibition rate against rice blast fungus than curcumin. WY24 showed 20.81%, 34.18%, 29.68%, and 15.4% higher inhibition rates against Fusarium graminearum, target spot fungus of tobacco, gray spot fungus of corn, and Fusarium oxysporum than curcumin, respectively.
