Article Synopsis
  • The primary focus of the study is on the UPB0736 bacterial sheath rot pathogen that causes sheath brown rot disease in rice, which leads to severe crop damage worldwide.
  • The research investigates the biosynthetic gene clusters for cyclic lipopeptides (CLPs) produced by UPB0736, including the newly identified CLP asplenin, and their roles in plant pathogenicity, antifungal activity, and swarming motility.
  • Findings show that both fuscopeptin and syringotoxin significantly impact the number of emitted rice panicles, indicating the relevance of CLPs in pathogenicity while also hinting the presence of other contributing factors.

Rice monoculture in acid sulfate soils (ASSs) is affected by a wide range of abiotic and biotic constraints, including rice blast caused by To progress towards a more sustainable agriculture, our research aimed to screen the biocontrol potential of indigenous spp. against blast disease by triggering induced systemic resistance (ISR) via root application and direct antagonism. Strains belonging to the and group could protect rice against blast disease by ISR.
