Potential of Pantoea dispersa as an effective biocontrol agent for black rot in sweet potato

Abstract: Biocontrol offers a promising alternative to synthetic fungicides for the control of a variety of pre- and post-harvest diseases of crops. Black rot, which is caused by the pathogenic fungus Ceratocytis fimbriata, is the most destructive post-harvest disease of sweet potato, but little is currently known about potential biocontrol agents for this fungus. Here, we isolated several microorganisms from the tuberous roots and shoots of field-grown sweet potato plants, and analyzed their ribosomal RNA gene sequence… Show more

“…as endophytes were carried by seeds of rice, wheat and crabgrass [ 62 , 63 , 64 ]. Some members of Pantoea , belonging to the PGPR, were used as an effective biocontrol agent, whereas Pantoea stewartii was a pathogen of maize [ 65 , 66 , 67 ]. Inoculation with P. triticisoli significantly enriched Pseudomonas in both the rhizosphere and root endosphere under all N levels, especially under low N and medium N levels.…”

“…With the increasing negative environmental and health effects of chemical fungicides and the increasing resistance of plant pathogens to these fungicides, the use of fungi as biological fungicides for the control of plant diseases has garnered attention from scientists worldwide (Jiang et al, 2019). The use of pathogenic fungi for controlling plant fungal diseases has broad and significant developmental prospects for establishing environmentally friendly ecological agriculture, improving the quality of agricultural products, and developing sustainable agriculture strategies.…”

“…Others have bioremediation potential, with the ability to degrade herbicides without generating toxic products. P. dispersa strains from sweet potato showed strong inhibition activity against the pathogenic fungus Ceratocytis fimbriata [ 142 ]. Interesting results were recorded for P. dispersa and P. agglomerans strains that were isolated from wheat [ 57 ].…”
