Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of microbial technology, specifically relating to a strain of Bacillus belye and its applications. Background Technology
[0002] Bacillus belye is a new species of Bacillus, a novel microbial pesticide that promotes crop growth and shows good efficacy in disease resistance. Current research indicates that Bacillus belye is being used to treat agricultural diseases: Bacillus belye Ag75 inhibits Rhizoctonia solani (…). Rhizoctonia solani The growth of *Bacillus belyceae* was improved, and yield increased by 17.80% in maize field trials. In field trials, application of *Bacillus belyceae* LJ02 to control cotton Verticillium wilt achieved a control effect of 61.10% and significantly promoted cotton growth. *Bacillus belyceae* E2 also showed resistance to *Aspergillus ochraceus* (…). Aspergillus westerdijkiae fc-1 The growth of ) and the OTA it produces Ochratoxin A Ochratoxin A has a significant inhibitory effect and can be used to control fungal diseases caused by ochratoxin in agricultural products. Therefore, it is necessary to develop Bacillus belyssus.
[0003] Existing Bacillus belycei culture medium formulations often use high-value raw materials such as glucose, peptone, and yeast extract to achieve high bacterial counts, resulting in high raw material costs. Furthermore, existing incremental culture equipment for Bacillus belycei primarily uses small-capacity laboratory fermenters, which are unsuitable for industrial-scale production demands. Moreover, large-scale microbial production, especially using ton-scale fermentation equipment, suffers from complex fermentation processes and poor process stability. Therefore, the main challenges are how to stably and effectively increase microbial counts while reducing raw material costs. Summary of the Invention

[0088] Example 1: Isolation, Purification and Identification of Strains 1. Isolation, purification, and screening of biocontrol bacteria Rhizosphere soil samples were collected from corn plantations in Lienchan Town, Guzhen County, Anhui Province. The samples were placed in sterile bags and brought back to the laboratory for bacterial isolation.
[0089] Biocontrol bacteria were isolated using a dilution-coating method. 10g of rhizosphere soil sample was weighed and diluted with sterile water to prepare a solution of 10... -4 10-5 10 -6 Soil suspensions of different gradients were taken in batches of 100 μL and evenly spread onto LB plates. Each gradient was replicated three times. The plates were incubated in a constant temperature incubator at 28 °C. After 24 h, bacterial colonies of different morphologies were picked and streaked. The obtained single colonies were streaked onto LB solid slant medium and stored in a refrigerator at 4 °C.
[0090] The biocontrol bacteria were screened using the plate confrontation method. Single colonies were picked and inoculated into LB liquid medium and cultured at 32°C and 180 rpm for 20 hours with shaking to prepare a fermentation broth. Fusarium graminearum (…) was then placed in a clean bench… Fusarium graminearum The bacteria (purchased from the Institute of Microbiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, catalog number CGMCC 3.3488) were inoculated onto PDA plates and activated for 3–5 days. A 5 mm diameter *Fusarium graminearum* bacterial dish was placed in the center of the PDA plate, and 2 μL of bacterial fermentation broth was inoculated around the dish in a cross pattern. Uninoculated fermentation broth served as the control (CK). Each treatment was replicated in triplicate. After incubation at 28°C for 3–7 days, the diameter of the pathogen in both the control and treatment groups was measured, and the inhibition rate was calculated.
[0091] Inhibition rate = (Diameter of control pathogen - Diameter of treatment pathogen) / (Diameter of control pathogen - Diameter of fungal cake) × 100%; Among the obtained strains, one strain was screened that had the strongest inhibitory effect on Fusarium graminearum, with an inhibition rate of 70.05%.
[0092] 2. Identification of biocontrol strains (1) Plate and microscopic observation The selected strains were streaked on LB solid medium for 24 hours. The colony morphology, size, edge, surface, raised shape, transparency and color were observed. Gram staining was performed, and the colony morphology was photographed and recorded.
[0093] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the bacteria grow well on LB medium, with milky white colonies, producing extracellular secretions. Picks of the bacteria are quite viscous, Gram-positive, and appear as rod-shaped cells under a microscope, with spores produced.
[0094] (2) Molecular biological identification Genomic DNA was extracted from the biocontrol strain. Using a set of PCR primers for bacterial 16S rDNA, the genomic DNA was amplified by PCR and sequenced. The 16S rDNA sequence is shown in SEQ ID NO: 1. The strain was identified as *Bacillus belyssae*. Bacillus velezensisIt was named Bacillus belyss BB-1, and its classification name was Bacillus belyss ( Bacillus velezensis The gene was deposited on June 11, 2026, at the China General Microbiological Culture Collection Center (CGMCC) with accession number CGMCC NO.39202, located at the Institute of Microbiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, No. 3, Courtyard 1, Beichen West Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing.

The size of the transparent zone around the filter paper discs is then observed.
[0096] The results are as follows Figure 3 As shown, the presence of a clear zone around the colony of *Bacillus belye* BB-1 indicates that this bacterium produces proteases and has the ability to degrade proteins.

[0107] Example 12: A Bacillus belye BB-1 culture medium A Bacillus belye BB-1 culture medium, comprising the following components by weight percentage: molasses 5%, corn steep liquor 5%, calcium chloride 0.06%, magnesium chloride 0.4%, and water balance.
[0108] Example 13: Effect of molasses on the cell mass and sporulation rate of Bacillus belyss BB-1 Bacillus belye BB-1 strain was inoculated onto activation medium and cultured at 37°C for 16 h. It was then inoculated onto seed medium and cultured at 37°C until OD (Organic Depth) was reached. 600 When the pH was 2.5, seed culture was obtained and inoculated at 10% into a 5L fermenter containing 3L of the culture medium from Examples 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8. The initial pH was 6.8, the aeration rate was 1-3 L / min, and the stirring speed was 200-600 rpm. Dissolved oxygen was controlled at 30% by controlling stirring and aeration. The total fermentation time was 35 hours (fermentation at 37°C). 2 mL of fermentation broth from each of the above culture systems was serially diluted with sterile water, and 0.1 mL of the diluted solution was spread onto counting medium. 2 mL of the same fermentation broth from each culture system was then incubated in an 80°C water bath for 20 minutes, followed by serial dilution with sterile water, and 0.1 mL of the diluted solution was spread onto counting medium. After incubation at 28°C for 24 hours, plates with colony counts between 30 and 300 CFU and no spreading colony growth were selected, with 3 replicates per group, and the colony count and sporulation rate were calculated.
[0109] Sporulation rate = Number of colonies produced by coating with heated bacterial solution ÷ Number of colonies produced by coating with unheated bacterial solution × 100%.
[0110] The results are shown in Table 1: The number of cells increased significantly with increasing molasses concentration, but the sporulation rate decreased significantly when the molasses concentration was greater than 5%. Furthermore, increasing the molasses concentration did not significantly increase the number of cells in the fermentation broth, but increased costs, which was not economically viable. Therefore, choosing 5% molasses as the carbon source for Bacillus belyssus BB-1 fermentation is more reasonable.

[0112] Note: The bacterial count is the number of colonies produced by coating the unheated bacterial solution.

It was then inoculated onto seed medium and cultured at 37°C until OD (Organic Depth) was reached. 600When the pH was 2.5, seed culture was obtained and inoculated at 10% into a 5L fermenter containing 3L of the culture medium from Examples 4, 9, 10, 11, or 12. The initial pH was 6.8, the aeration rate was 1-3 L / min, and the stirring speed was 200-600 rpm. Dissolved oxygen was controlled at 30% by controlling stirring and aeration. The total fermentation time was 35 hours (fermentation at 37°C). 2 mL of fermentation broth from each of the above culture systems was serially diluted with sterile water, and 0.1 mL of the diluted solution was spread onto counting medium. 2 mL of the same fermentation broth from each culture system was then incubated in an 80°C water bath for 20 minutes, followed by serial dilution with sterile water, and 0.1 mL of the diluted solution was spread onto counting medium. After incubation at 28°C for 24 hours, plates with colony counts between 30 and 300 CFU and no spreading colony growth were selected, with 3 replicates per group, and the colony count and sporulation rate were calculated.
[0114] Sporulation rate = Number of colonies produced by coating with heated bacterial solution ÷ Number of colonies produced by coating with unheated bacterial solution × 100%.
[0115] The results are shown in Table 2. While the bacterial count increased significantly with increasing corn steep liquor concentration, the sporulation rate decreased significantly when the corn steep liquor concentration exceeded 3%. Furthermore, increasing the corn steep liquor concentration did not significantly increase the bacterial count in the fermentation broth, but increased costs, which was not economically viable. Therefore, selecting 3% corn steep liquor as the nitrogen source for Bacillus belyss BB-1 fermentation is more reasonable.
[0116] Table 2. Effects of corn steep liquor on the cell count and sporulation rate of Bacillus belyssus BB-1
[0117] Note: The bacterial count is the number of colonies produced by coating the unheated bacterial solution.
[0118] Example 14: Investigation of cell mass and sporulation rate of Bacillus belyss BB-1 in ton-scale fermentation Bacillus belye BB-1 strain was inoculated onto activation medium and cultured at 37°C for 16 h. It was then inoculated onto seed medium and cultured at 37°C until OD (Organic Depth) was reached. 600 When the OD value is 2.5, the seed culture is obtained and inoculated into a primary seed tank containing seed culture medium at a 1% inoculation rate. The culture is then incubated at 37°C until the OD value reaches 2.5. 600 When the OD value is 2.5, inoculate 3% into a secondary seed tank containing seed culture medium and culture at 37°C until the OD value reaches 2.5. 600 When the concentration reaches 2.5, inoculate 10% of the culture medium from Example 4 (30 ml). 3 In the fermentation broth, the initial pH was 6.8, and the aeration rate was 180–360 m³ / h. 3The stirring speed was 30-70 rpm, and the dissolved oxygen was controlled at 30% by controlling the stirring and aeration rate. The total fermentation time was 35 hours (fermentation at 37℃). 2 mL of the above culture broth was serially diluted with sterile water, and 0.1 mL of the diluted solution was spread onto counting medium. Another 2 mL of the same culture broth was incubated in an 80℃ water bath for 20 minutes, followed by another serial dilution with sterile water, and 0.1 mL of the diluted solution was spread onto counting medium. The culture was incubated at 28℃ for 24 hours. Plates with colony counts between 30 and 300 CFU and no spreading colony growth were selected, with three replicates per group. The colony count and sporulation rate were calculated.
[0119] Sporulation rate = Number of colonies produced by coating with heated bacterial solution ÷ Number of colonies produced by coating with unheated bacterial solution × 100%.
[0120] This example demonstrates a comparative scale-up experiment of Bacillus belyss BB-1 using a ton-scale fermentation unit. The final cell count in the fermentation broth (the cell count is the number of colonies produced by coating the unheated bacterial solution) reached 2.2 × 10⁻⁶. 10 The concentration of cfu / mL and the sporulation rate reached 97%, compared to the 1×10⁻⁶ colony count obtained by existing ton-scale fermentation. 9 Compared to previous versions, the cfu / mL ratio shows a significant improvement. Furthermore, the use of inexpensive molasses and corn steep liquor instead of more expensive raw materials such as glucose and yeast powder reduces costs. Therefore, this invention demonstrates that the Bacillus BB-1 fermentation broth provided is suitable for ton-scale fermentation equipment and can meet the production demands of industry.
