Abstract
Description
Bacillus, biocontrol agent prepared from the bacillus and application TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of biological agents, and particularly relates to a bacillus, a biocontrol agent prepared from the bacillus and application of the bacillus and the biocontrol agent in fruit and vegetable antibacterial and bacteriostatic preservation. BACKGROUND
[0002] Fruits and vegetables are prone to be invaded by soil-borne pathogens during planting, and are often threatened by bacteria and fungi, especially fungal diseases, which are common symptoms such as necrosis (leaf spot, leaf withering), rot (root rot, fruit rot) and wilting (root, stem base, vascular bundle tissue invasion) and the like. Traditionally, chemical fungicides, cultivation of disease-resistant varieties, interplanting, grafting and other methods are used for disease control, but these control measures have advantages and disadvantages.
[0003] On the other hand, fresh fruits and vegetables are subjected to varying degrees of infectious diseases (pathogenic microorganism infection) during postharvest and long-term storage due to changes in their physiological and biochemical characteristics. Postharvest infectious diseases of fruits and vegetables are caused by pathogenic microorganisms that infect the host during the growth and development period of the fruits and vegetables in the field, and cross-infection during transportation and storage is also a cause of infectious diseases. The presence of pores between the epidermal tissues of most fruits and vegetables, as well as wounds caused by improper transportation, facilitate the entry of pathogenic microorganisms into the internal pulp tissue through the epidermis of the fruits and vegetables, thereby increasing the degree of postharvest infectious diseases of the fruits and vegetables. Currently, the main methods for controlling postharvest infectious diseases of fruits and vegetables are preharvest spraying of pesticides and postharvest reduction of storage temperature, but excessive use of pesticides can result in serious pesticide residue exceeding the standard, which is harmful to human health, and long-term excessive use of pesticides can cause pathogenic microorganisms to develop drug resistance, greatly reducing the effect of disease control.
[0004] Biological control is a technique that uses living biocontrol agents and their metabolically active substances to control disease occurrence. Biocontrol agents can colonize and grow in the rhizosphere of crops, forming a biological barrier to protect crops from pathogenic fungi. Their metabolically active substances inhibit and kill pathogenic fungi on the one hand, and induce plants to increase disease resistance on the other hand.
[0005] Biological control methods have more advantages than chemical control methods. In addition to easy production and convenient use of biological agents, mixed bacterial agents prepared from biocontrol agents and their metabolites are more environmentally friendly, have no pollution and no pesticide residues, and meet the strategic requirements of sustainable development in China. Moreover, biocontrol agents are less sensitive to environmental changes, have stable effects, and the nutrients decomposed and transformed by biocontrol agents can be utilized by crops, thereby improving crop quality and increasing yield.
[0006] However, although the existing developed biocontrol strains and biocontrol agents show certain effects, and some have broad-spectrum antibacterial properties, the existing biocontrol agents of Bacillus have generally low inhibition rates. Moreover, for Actinomucor elegans, Alternaria sp., Aspergillus sp., and other fruit and vegetable pathogenic bacteria, fewer biocontrol strains have been found, and their inhibition rates are not high.
[0007] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a Bacillus subtilis biocontrol strain with a wider spectrum of antibacterial effects and a very significant inhibition rate against Actinomucor elegans, Alternaria sp., Aspergillus sp., and other fruit and vegetable pathogenic bacteria. SUMMARY

[0032] 1. Test design
[0033] ZZ-1 strain single colony was inoculated into LB broth, and cultured at 28°C with constant shaking at 150 rpm for 24 h. The cell suspension density was determined to be 1×10 8 cfu / mL using a hemocytometer. Add ZZ-1 strain cell suspension to PDA medium, shake and mix to make plates, and the cell density of ZZ-1 strain in each plate is 1×10 6 cfu / mL. Use a 6mm sterile punch to take the gray botrytis cake and place it in the center of the PDA plate containing ZZ-1 strain. Use PDA plate containing 100mg / L carbendazim as pesticide control, and PDA plate without ZZ-1 strain as blank control, with 3 replicates for each treatment. The plate with the fungus cake is sealed with a self-sealing bag and placed in a 26°C constant temperature incubator for culture. When the mycelium of the control group is full, the width of the inhibition zone is measured.
[0034] The inhibition rate R R(%) of mycelial growth is calculated as follows: R R(%)=(R1-R2) / R1×100%
[0035] Where R is the percentage of inhibition of radial mycelial growth, R1 is the mycelial growth of the blank control, and R2 is the mycelial growth of the treatment group.

The culture was incubated at 37°C, and each treatment was repeated 3 times. After 60 days, the soil sample was dissolved in physiological saline, and a small amount of sand was spread on LB plates to observe the presence or absence of viable bacteria and their number.
[0080] (2) Test results
[0081] From Table 8, it can be seen that the survival of Bacillus ZZ-1 after 60 days under different field water content conditions. The results show that Bacillus ZZ-1 can exhibit good survival ability after 60 days under the condition that the soil water content is ≥30%. When the water content is 10%, Bacillus ZZ-1 cannot survive for more than 60 days.
[0082] The strain has strong tolerance to high humidity environment and is not adapted to extremely low temperature and humidity environment, but soil water content below 10% does not occur in normal crop production areas, so the viability of the strain is suitable for most crop soils. When the air humidity is high, the strain can be mixed with inorganic nutrient solution and sprayed on the surface of crops as foliar fertilizer and protective agent.
[0083] Table 8 60d Bacillus ZZ-1 adaptability under different field water content Note: “++” indicates that the number of viable bacteria is ≥10 8 cfu / mL, “+” indicates that the number of viable bacteria is ≥10 6 cfu / mL, “-” indicates no viable bacteria.
[0084] Six, tolerance to broad-spectrum fungicides
[0085] 1. Test design
[0086] Pyraclostrobin, tebuconazole, epoxiconazole, carbendazim, azoxystrobin, propiconazole, azoxystrobin, thiophanate-methyl, mancozeb, difenoconazole, boscalid, fluopyram, iprodione, mepanipyrim, pyrimidine nucleotide antibiotic, pyraclostrobin and flusilazole, a total of 17 kinds of chemical fungicides were added to LB liquid medium, so that the concentration of pesticides was 10 times the normal use concentration and 10 times the use concentration of the above-mentioned drugs; LB liquid medium without fungicides and biocontrol bacteria was used as a control and inoculated with the same concentration of ZZ-1 strain. Incubate at 37°C, 120 r / min on a shaker, after 24h, use a loop to dip LB liquid medium on LB plate and observe the growth of ZZ-1 strain, 3 replicates per treatment.
[0087] 2. Test results
[0088] The test results are shown in Table 9. The resistance of Bacillus ZZ-1 to different fungicides is different. Among them, after co-culturing Bacillus ZZ-1 with pyraclostrobin, tebuconazole, epoxiconazole, carbendazim, azoxystrobin, propiconazole, zoxam, thiram, myclobutanil, boscalid, fluopyram, dimethirimol and metsulfun for 24 hours at normal dose and 10 times dose, Bacillus ZZ-1 can grow on LB plate, indicating that Bacillus ZZ-1 has good resistance to the 10 commonly used fungicides at low concentration and can survive in the environment sprayed with the 10 fungicides. Bacillus ZZ-1 can grow after co-culturing with maneb-zinc, pyrimidine nucleotide antibiotics and flusilazole at normal dose for 24 hours, but cannot survive after co-culturing at 10 times dose for 24 hours. Bacillus ZZ-1 cannot survive after being treated with propanil at normal dose and 10 times dose.
