This invention provides a method derived from Bacillus ( Bacillus The
lactone enzyme AiiA (sp.) GB-1 and its application are described, with its
amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO:1. Experimental results show that the
enzyme has degradation activity against various N-acyl
homoserine lactone signaling molecules, exhibits high degradation ability against long-chain AHLs, and has good stability within a certain temperature and
pH range. Further experimental results show that the AiiA
enzyme can reduce the
quorum sensing-related
phenotype of pathogens. Simultaneously, exogenous addition of AiiA enzyme can also reduce the degree of
pathogen infection in
plant tissues, indicating that the enzyme can be used for
plant disease control through engineered
bacteria expression or exogenous enzyme preparations. This invention provides a new technical approach for green control of
plant diseases.
