Natural rubber is an important national strategic and industrial raw material. The leaf anthracnose of rubber trees caused by the species is one of the important factors restricting the yields of natural rubber. In this study, we isolated and identified strain SF334, which exhibited significant antagonistic activity against both .

This activation follows a gene-for-gene paradigm that results in an arms race between the TALE of the pathogen and effector-binding elements (EBEs) in the promoters of host genes.

- * The study explored the genomic and transcriptomic data of strain 504, revealing it shares significant genetic similarities with two other strains and has gene clusters for producing anti-BLS compounds like difficidin and bacilysin.
- * Strain 504 was found to effectively lower the expression of various genes in the BLS pathogen linked to its virulence and mobility, achieving over 70% control efficiency in some rice varieties and demonstrating potential against other plant pathogenic fungi as well.
pv. () causes bacterial leaf blight (BLB) in rice, which is one of the most severe bacterial diseases in rice in some Asian countries. The type III secretion system (T3SS) of encoded by the hypersensitive response and pathogenicity () genes is essential for its pathogenicity in host rice.
