LC-MS based metabolomics identification of natural metabolites against .

is a soil-borne pathogen that poses a serious threat to the quality and yield of hundreds of crops worldwide, particularly tobacco production. Using metabolomics technology, we investigated natural metabolites from disease-conducting soil (DCS) and disease-suppressing soil (DSS) of tobacco rhizosphere as fungicides to control tobacco Fusarium wilt (TFW), which is mainly caused by . Furthermore, the antifungal mechanisms of these natural metabolites were preliminarily elucidated through various assessments, including antifungal activity determination, chemotaxis effect tests, PI staining experiments, and measurements of extracellular conductivity and protein content.
