Promising Natural Products in Crop Protection and Food Preservation: Basis, Advances, and Future Prospects

International Journal of Agronomy, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
The increase in demand for agricultural produce necessitates the continuous search for affordable, ecofriendly, readily available crop protectors, and food preservatives. Historically, the use of various chemicals was employed in controlling plant diseases and to maintain food quality. In the past few decades, several natural product‐based alternatives

An intrinsic mechanism for coordinated production of the contact-dependent and contact-independent weapon systems in a soil bacterium.

PLoS Pathogens, 2020
Soil bacteria possess multiple weapons to fend off microbial competitors. Currently, we poorly understand the factors guiding bacterial decisions about weapon systems deployment.

Isolation and Characterization of Rhizospheric Bacteria from Vuralia turcica Rhizospheric Soil

Journal of Agricultural Sciences, 2023
Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria are highly active in soil ecosystems for legumes due to their biotic activities. Vuralia turcica (Kit Tan, Vural & Kucukoduk) Uysal & Ertugrul is a Turkish endemic legume plant with potential value as ...

Biosynthesis of HSAF, a Tetramic Acid-Containing Macrolactam from Lysobacter enzymogenes

Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2010
HSAF was isolated from Lysobacter enzymogenes , a bacterium used in the biological control of fungal diseases of plants. Structurally, it is a tetramic acid-containing macrolactam fused to a tricyclic system. HSAF exhibits a novel mode of action by disrupting sphingolipids important to the polarized growth of filamentous fungi.

A non-flagellated biocontrol bacterium employs a PilZ-PilB complex to provoke twitching motility associated with its predation behavior

Phytopathology Research, 2020
Lysobacter enzymogenes OH11 is a non-flagellated, ubiquitous soil bacterium with broad-spectrum antifungal activities. Although lacking flagella, it employs another type of motile behavior, known as twitching motility that is powered by type IV pilus ...

Transcriptomics of the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae in response to the bacterial antagonist Lysobacter enzymogenes reveals candidate fungal defense response genes. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Plants and animals have evolved a first line of defense response to pathogens called innate or basal immunity. While basal defenses in these organisms are well studied, there is almost a complete lack of understanding of such systems in fungal species ...

Response of Pine Rhizosphere Microbiota to Foliar Treatment with Resistance-Inducing Bacteria against Pine Wilt Disease

Microorganisms, 2021
In this study, two bacterial strains, IRP7 and IRP8, were selected to induce resistance against pine wilt disease (PWD). Foliar application with these strains to nematode-inoculated pine seedlings significantly reduced PWD severity.

Bacterial communication mediated by T4SS effectors

Phytopathology Research, 2023
Bacteria have the ability to inhibit the growth of competitors by using contact-dependent killing devices, such as the bacterial-killing type IV secretion system (T4SS). A recent publication in The ISME Journal by Wang et al. (ISME J, 2023.

Comparison of the Phosphatases of Lysobacter enzymogenes with Those of Related Bacteria

Microbiology, 1987
Lysobacter enzymogenes ATCC 29487 (UASM 495) produces an outer-membrane-associated phosphatase and an excreted phosphatase. The cell-associated enzyme was compared to phosphatases of nine other Gram-negative gliding bacteria and to that of Escherichia coli.
