Endophytic bacteria from wheat grain as biocontrol agents of Fusarium graminearum and deoxynivalenol production in wheat

Abstract: In Uruguay, Fusarium graminearum is the most common species that infects wheat and is responsible for Fusarium head blight (FHB) and contamination of grain with deoxynivalenol (DON). The aim of this work was to select bacterial endophytes isolated from wheat grain to evaluate their antagonistic ability against F. graminearum and DON production in vitro and under field conditions. Four strains identified as Bacillus megaterium (BM1) and Bacillus subtilis (BS43, BSM0 y BSM2) significantly reduced fungal growth a… Show more

“…In addition, there are differences in the activity of these bacteria against phytopathogenic fungi. In the work of M. Pan et al [22] Bacillus megaterium (BM1) and Bacillus subtilis (BS43, BSM0 y BSM2) were isolated from wheat seeds. They had a high antagonistic activity against Fusarium graminearum.…”

“…Likewise, bacterial strains such as Bacillus amyloliquefaciens FLN13 and Lactobacillus plantarum SLG17 have reduced Fusarium disease index up to 50% when inoculated simultaneously at flowering (Baffoni et al 2015). B. megaterium BM1 showed similar results in South America (Pan et al 2015). Also, Pseudomonas fluorescens LY1-8 showed reduced FCR and FHB severity by half in field trials when sprayed at flowering (Wang et al 2015).…”

“…In many cases, the biocontrol bacteria found in association with cultivated plants have an increased antagonistic potential against those phytopathogens specific for the same host. For example, some endophytic bacterial strains, found in wheat plants, expressed biocontrol activity against Fusarium graminearum responsible for the fusarium head blight and mycotoxins production in wheat [11]. Similar aspects reveal a better antagonistic efficacy of biocontrol bacteria against those pathogens infecting the same plant organs, were beneficial bacteria are habituated to survive.…”
