AI Technical Summary
Existing chemical methods for controlling maize leaf spot have problems such as increased pathogen resistance, damage to soil microbial communities, and pesticide residues. Furthermore, biocontrol bacteria are difficult to colonize under rainwater washout, affecting the control effect.
Using Bacillus subtilis GL57 and its prepared rain-resistant bacterial agent, the colonization ability of the bacterial agent under rainwater runoff was improved by compounding xanthan gum, chitosan and diatomaceous earth. Combined with fermentation process optimization, a bacterial agent with significant antibacterial activity was prepared.
In areas with frequent rainfall, it significantly improved the colonization rate and control effect of biocontrol bacteria on leaves, reduced the disease index, and improved the agronomic traits and yield of maize.
