Microbiol Res 2024; 285:127781. [PMID: 38795406 DOI: 10.1016/j.micres.2024.127781] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2024] [Revised: 04/23/2024] [Accepted: 05/21/2024] [Indexed: 05/28/2024]
Abstract
Pantoea agglomerans is considered one of the most ubiquitous and versatile organisms that include strains that induce diseases in various crops and occasionally cause opportunistic infections in humans. To develop effective strategies to mitigate its impact on plant health and agricultural productivity, a comprehensive investigation is crucial for better understanding its pathogenicity. One proposed eco-friendly approach involves the enzymatic degradation of quorum sensing (QS) signal molecules like N-acylhomoserine lactones (AHLs), known as quorum quenching (QQ), offering potential treatment for such bacterial diseases. In this study the production of C4 and 3-oxo-C6HSL was identified in the plant pathogenic P. agglomerans CFBP 11141 and correlated to enzymatic activities such as amylase and acid phosphatase. Moreover, the heterologous expression of a QQ enzyme in the pathogen resulted in lack of AHLs production and the attenuation of the virulence by mean of drastically reduction of soft rot disease in carrots and cherry tomatoes. Additionally, the interference with the QS systems of P. agglomerans CFBP 11141 by two the plant growth-promoting and AHL-degrading bacteria (PGP-QQ) Pseudomonas segetis P6 and Bacillus toyonensis AA1EC1 was evaluated as a potential biocontrol approach for the first time. P. segetis P6 and B. toyonensis AA1EC1 demonstrated effectiveness in diminishing soft rot symptoms induced by P. agglomerans CFBP 11141 in both carrots and cherry tomatoes. Furthermore, the virulence of pathogen notably decreased when co-cultured with strain AA1EC1 on tomato plants.

PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 12:3037. [PMID: 37687284 PMCID: PMC10490365 DOI: 10.3390/plants12173037] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2023] [Revised: 08/17/2023] [Accepted: 08/18/2023] [Indexed: 09/10/2023]
Abstract
Quorum sensing (QS) is a communication mechanism used among microorganisms that regulate the population density and behavior by sensing the concentration of signaling molecules. Quorum quenching (QQ), a novel, eco-friendly, and efficient method for disease control, interferes with QS by disturbing the production and enzymatic degradation of signaling molecules, blocking communication among microorganisms, and thus has deep potential for use in plant disease control. Pectobacterium carotovorum can cause bacterial soft rot, resulting in yield reduction in a variety of crops worldwide, and can be mediated and regulated by the N-acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs), which are typical signaling molecules. In this study, a novel quenching strain of Pseudomonas multiresinivorans QL-9a was isolated and characterized, and it showed excellent degradation ability against AHLs, degrading 98.20% of N-(-3-oxohexanoyl)-L-homoserine lactone (OHHL) within 48 h. Based on the results of the gas chromatography-mass spectrometer (GC-MS) analysis, a possible pathway was proposed to decompose OHHL into fatty acids and homoserine lactone, in which AHL acylase was involved. Additionally, it has been demonstrated that the QL-9a strain and its crude enzyme are promising biocontrol agents that can considerably reduce the severity of the soft rot disease brought on by P. carotovorum, consequently preventing the maceration of a variety of host plant tissues. All of these results suggest promising applications of the QL-9a strain and its crude enzyme in the control of various plant diseases mediated by AHLs.

Abstract
Romania has a long history of grapevine culturing and winemaking. However, like any agricultural sector, viticulture faces devastating biological threats. Fungi responsible for grapevine trunk diseases (GTDs) and grape spoilage lead to considerable yield losses and a decline in grapevine quality. In the actual context, many countries, including Romania, have reoriented their approaches to minimize chemical inputs, which have been proven to be toxic and to have negative impacts on the environment, and to replace them with sustainable biocontrol strategies for the wine-growing sector. Within biocontrol strategies, Bacillus spp. is a well-known plant-protective bacteria with antifungal properties. Within this paper, six endophytic bacteria from various plant sources were studied. The bacterial strains were identified as B. pumilus, B. subtilis, and B. velezensis by sequencing their 16S rDNA region. Regardless of the in vitro test methods (using living bacterial cells, bacterial-cell-free supernatant (CFS), and volatile active compounds (VOCs)), B. velezensis strains revealed strong and broad antifungal activity against grape and grapevine fungal pathogens such as Aspergillus spp., Botrytis cinerea, Penicillium expansum, Diplodia seriata, Eutypa lata, Fusarium spp., Clonostachys rosea, Neofusicoccum parvum, and Stereum hirsutum. The functional antifungal genes encoding for difficidin, fengycin, iturins, macrolactin, and mycosubtilin were molecularly detected, which could support the proven antifungal activity of the endophytic strains. Lytic enzymes involved in fungal growth inhibition, such as chitinase, cellulase, and proteases, were also revealed to be produced by some of these bacterial strains. Various other in vitro tests, such as phosphate and phytate solubilization, phytohormone synthesis, the production of enzymes involved in the polyamine biosynthetic pathway, and pH as well as temperature tolerance tests were carried out to reveal the plant-beneficial potential of these bacterial strains. These results revealed that the B. velezensis strains, especially BAHs1, are the most suitable endophytes for grapevine biologic control, which could lead to the future development of sustainable management strategies.

Rapid Biodegradation of the Organophosphorus Insecticide Acephate by a Novel Strain Burkholderia sp. A11 and Its Impact on the Structure of the Indigenous Microbial Community.

Abstract
The acephate-degrading microbes that are currently available are not optimal. In this study, Burkholderia sp. A11, an efficient degrader of acephate, presented an acephate-removal efficiency of 83.36% within 56 h (100 mg·L-1). The A11 strain has a broad substrate tolerance and presents a good removal effect in the concentration range 10-1600 mg·L-1. Six metabolites from the degradation of acephate were identified, among which the main products were methamidophos, acetamide, acetic acid, methanethiol, and dimethyl disulfide. The main degradation pathways involved include amide bond breaking and phosphate bond hydrolysis. Moreover, strain A11 successfully colonized and substantially accelerated acephate degradation in different soils, degrading over 90% of acephate (50-200 mg·kg-1) within 120 h. 16S rDNA sequencing results further confirmed that the strain A11 gradually occupied a dominant position in the soil microbial communities, causing slight changes in the diversity and composition of the indigenous soil microbial community structure.

FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2023; 14:1080116.

Abstract
The management of soybean rust (SBR) caused by the obligate fungus Phakopsora pachyrhizi mostly relies on the use of synthetic fungicides, especially in areas where the disease inflicts serious yield losses. The reliance on synthetic fungicides to manage this disease has resulted in resistance of P. pachyrhizi populations to most fungicides. In this study, bacteria isolated from diverse environments were evaluated for their biocontrol potential against P. pachyrhizi using soybean detached-leaf method and on-plant in the growth chamber, greenhouse, and field. Among 998 bacterial isolates evaluated using the detached-leaf method; 58% were isolated from plant-related materials, 27% from soil, 10% from insects, and 5% from other environments. Of the isolates screened, 73 were active (they had ⪖ 75% rust reduction) with an active rate of 7.3%. From the active isolates, 65 isolates were re-tested on-plant in the growth chamber for activity confirmation. In the confirmation test, 49 bacteria isolated from plant-related materials maintained their activity with a confirmation rate of 75%. The majority of bacteria with confirmed activity belonged to the taxonomic classes Bacilli and Gammaproteobacteria (70%). Active isolates were prioritized for greenhouse and field testing based on activity in the initial screen and confirmation test. Six bacterial isolates AFS000009 (Pseudomonas_E chlororaphis), AFS032321 (Bacillus subtilis), AFS042929 (Bacillus_C megaterium), AFS065981 (Bacillus_X simplex_A), AFS090698 (Bacillus_A thuringiensis_S), and AFS097295 (Bacillus_A toyonensis) were selected from those bacteria that maintained activity in the confirmation test and were evaluated in the greenhouse, and five among them were evaluated in the field. From the Alabama field evaluation, all bacterial isolates reduced rust infection as well as azoxystrobin (Quadris® at 0.3 L/ha) used as the fungicide control (P > 0.05). Moreover, the scanning electron micrographs demonstrated evidence of antagonistic activity of AFS000009 and AFS032321 against P. pachyrhizi urediniospores. Bacterial isolates that consistently showed activity comparable to that of azoxystrobin can be improved through fermentation and formulation optimization, developed, and deployed. These bacteria strains would provide a valuable alternative to the synthetic fungicides and could play a useful role in integrated disease management programs for this disease.

Abstract
With the increasing resistance exhibited by undesirable bacteria to traditional antibiotics, the need to discover alternative (or, at least, supplementary) treatments to combat chemically resistant bacteria is becoming urgent. Quorum sensing (QS) refers to a novel bacterial communication system for monitoring cell density and regulation of a network of gene expression that is mediated by a group of signaling molecules called autoinducers (AIs). QS-regulated multicellular behaviors include biofilm formation, horizontal gene transfer, and antibiotic synthesis, which are demonstrating increasing pathogenicity to plants and aquacultural animals as well as contamination of wastewater treatment devices. To inhibit QS-regulated microbial behaviors, the strategy of quorum quenching (QQ) has been developed. Different quorum quenchers interfere with QS through different mechanisms, such as competitively inhibiting AI perception (e.g., by QS inhibitors) and AI degradation (e.g., by QQ enzymes). In this review, we first introduce different signaling molecules, including diffusible signal factor (DSF) and acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs) for Gram-negative bacteria, AIPs for Gram-positive bacteria, and AI-2 for interspecies communication, thus demonstrating the mode of action of the QS system. We next exemplify the QQ mechanisms of various quorum quenchers, such as chemical QS inhibitors, and the physical/enzymatic degradation of QS signals. We devote special attention to AHL-degrading enzymes, which are categorized in detail according to their diverse catalytic mechanisms and enzymatic properties. In the final part, the applications and advantages of quorum quenchers (especially QQ enzymes and bacteria) are summarized in the context of agricultural/aquacultural pathogen biocontrol, membrane bioreactors for wastewater treatment, and the attenuation of human pathogenic bacteria. Taken together, we present the state-of-the-art in research considering QS and QQ, providing theoretical evidence and support for wider application of this promising environmentally friendly biocontrol strategy.
