Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of microbial inoculant technology, specifically relating to a microbial inoculant for the prevention and control of rice diseases. Background Technology

[0002] Most bacterial diseases of rice are quarantine diseases, characterized by rapid outbreaks and severe damage. Common bacterial diseases of rice include bacterial leaf blight, bacterial leaf streak, bacterial grain blight, and bacterial basal rot. Among them, bacterial leaf streak, also known as fine streak or stripe disease, is caused by Xanthomonas oryzae var. oryzae (the pathogenic strain of Xanthomonas oryzae). Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola This disease, caused by [unspecified pathogen], is an important quarantine bacterial disease in rice production. It can occur throughout the entire growth period of rice, mainly affecting the leaves, but also the leaf sheaths. After infection, it causes leaf scorch, increased unfilled grains, and a decrease in thousand-grain weight, generally resulting in a yield reduction of 15-25%, and in severe cases, up to 40-60%.

[0003] For a long time, the main method for controlling plant diseases (including rice diseases) has been chemical control. Chemical pesticides have played a crucial role in plant disease control, but the long-term, high-dose, and irrational use of chemical pesticides has led to serious pesticide residue problems and environmental pollution. Simultaneously, pathogens have developed strong resistance under the selective pressure of long-term, high-dose chemical pesticides, resulting in a gradual decline in the effectiveness of chemical pesticides. To achieve the goals of plant disease control and sustainable development for humans and the environment, people have begun to explore environmentally friendly biopesticides, and microbial inoculants are one type of biopesticide.

[0004] The applicant's previous research found that strain GPB1-5 can achieve selenium enrichment in vegetables, increase the water-soluble selenium content in selenium-enriched soil, and passivate the heavy metal cadmium in the soil. Recently, regarding its effects on plant pathogens, the inventors also discovered that strain GPB1-5 can effectively inhibit the growth of rice pathogens, showing potential for development into a microbial agent, which is of great significance for the control of rice diseases. No related reports have been found yet.

[0017] The following is a clear and complete description of the technical solution of this invention patent. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of this invention.

[0018] 1. Materials and Methods 1.1 Test pathogens Xanthomonas streak pathogenic type ( Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola ), isolated from rice bacterial leaf streak disease samples from the rice experimental field of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region Academy of Agricultural Sciences.

[0019] 1.2 Culture medium NA medium: 3g beef extract, 5g peptone, 1g yeast extract, 10g sucrose, 17g agar, 1L distilled water, pH adjusted to 7.0; NB medium: 3g beef extract, 5g peptone, 1g yeast powder, 10g sucrose, 1L distilled water, pH adjusted to 7.0; LB medium: 10g tryptone, 5g yeast extract; 10g sodium chloride, 1L distilled water, pH adjusted to 7.0; Fermentation medium: 5g tryptone, 2g yeast extract, 1.5g potassium nitrate, 0.5g magnesium sulfate, 0.1g calcium chloride, 1L distilled water, pH 7.0.

[0020] 1.3 Test reagents GPB1-5 bacterial powder: After activating strain GPB1-5, pick a single colony and inoculate it into LB liquid medium. Incubate at 30°C and 180 rpm on a shaker until the logarithmic growth phase. Add fresh LB medium to adjust the viable count to 10⁻⁶. 9 The seed culture was obtained at cfu / mL. A 10% inoculum was added to a fermenter containing fermentation medium. Fermentation was carried out at 30°C, 200 rpm, and aeration to maintain dissolved oxygen at 0.8 mg / L for 36 hours. The fermentation broth was centrifuged at 5000×g and 4°C for 15 minutes, and the cell pellet was collected. The cell pellet was resuspended in sterile physiological saline pre-cooled to 4°C, and centrifuged again at 5000×g and 4°C for 15 minutes, and the cell pellet was collected. The cell pellet was then slowly resuspended in a cryoprotectant (by mass percentage: trehalose 12%, skim milk 6%, magnesium chloride 0.15%, ascorbic acid 0.08%, mannitol 4%, and the remainder sterile water). The pellet was then freeze-dried under vacuum (-40°C, 15 Pa vacuum for 12 hours; then heated to 25°C at a rate of 5°C / h and dried under 8 Pa vacuum) until the moisture content was below 5%. The pellet was then pulverized through a 100-mesh sieve, and soluble starch was added to adjust the viable count to 5×10⁻⁶. 8 cfu / g indicates the bacterial powder of strain GPB1-5.

[0021] 94% chlortetracycline technical grade (Shanghai Nongle Biological Products Co., Ltd.), 75% berberine technical grade (Inner Mongolia Qingyuanbao Biotechnology Co., Ltd.), 98% kasugamycin technical grade (Wuhan Xinxinjiali Biotechnology Co., Ltd.) GPB1-5 bacterial powder was diluted with 0.1% Tween-80 aqueous solution to prepare single-agent stock solutions at 100% by weight. Aureomycin, berberine, and streptomycin were dissolved and then diluted with 0.1% Tween-80 aqueous solution to prepare single-agent stock solutions. Multiple formulations were set up, and each single agent and each formulation mixture was further diluted with 0.1% Tween-80 aqueous solution to create five mass concentration gradients to determine the virulence of the single agents and mixtures against the tested pathogens.

[0022] It should be noted that previous compatibility tests showed that chlortetracycline, berberine, and streptomycin had good compatibility with strain GPB1-5, so these three were selected as the compounding factors for strain GPB1-5.

[0023] 1.4 Test Methods Following the filter paper diffusion method described by Wei Haijuan et al. (2011), the test pathogens were picked and cultured in 100 mL of NB medium at 30 °C with shaking at 180 r / min for 24 h. The bacterial suspension concentration was then adjusted to 1.0 × 10⁻⁶ using a hemocytometer. 8 CFU / mL. Pour 10 mL of NA medium cooled to approximately 50°C into a 9 cm diameter petri dish, shake well, cool, and prepare a plate. Spread 50 μL of bacterial suspension evenly onto the cooled NA plate. Punch 5 mm diameter filter paper discs, sterilize them, and immerse them in the solution for 1 hour. Remove and drain excess solution. Place one filter paper disc in the center of the bacterial plate. Use a treatment soaked in 0.1% Tween-80 aqueous solution as a blank control. Each treatment is repeated three times, with three plates per replicate. After incubation at 30°C for 48 hours, measure the diameter of the inhibition zone using the cross-sectional method and calculate the inhibition rate.

[0024]

[0025] 1.5 Data Analysis The drug concentration was converted to a logarithmic value, and the corresponding inhibition rate was converted to a probability value. A regression equation for virulence and EC was calculated with the logarithmic concentration as the independent variable and the inhibition rate probability value as the dependent variable. 50 Values ​​and correlation coefficients. The co-toxicity coefficient (CTC value) of the mixture was calculated using the Sun Yunpei method, and the synergistic effect of the agents was evaluated. The results are shown in Tables 1-4.
