Abstract
BACKGROUND Citrus canker and citrus blue mold are two severe diseases in citrus plants, which are mainly caused by Xanthomonas citri susp. citri (Xcc) and Penicillium italicum, respectively. The currently widely used pesticides for these two diseases are harmful to human health and the environment. Therefore, searching for novel antimicrobial agents, especially from natural resources, is getting increasing interest. RESULTS In this study, the crude extract of Streptomyces sp. GLL-9, an endophyte from a navel orange tree, was found to exhibit excellent antimicrobial effects against Xcc and P. italicum. Bioassay-guided isolation led to the discovery of three actinomycins (Acts), actinomycin X2 (Act-X2 ), actinomycin D (ActD), and actinomycin XOβ (Act-XOβ ). The MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration) values of Act-X2 , ActD, and Act-XOβ were 31.25, 62.50, and 62.50 μg mL-1 against Xcc, respectively, while 62.50 (Act-X2 ) and 125.00 μg mL-1 (ActD) against P. italicum, being better or comparable to the positive controls. The highest yield of Acts was obtained by solid-state fermentation with rice containing 1% L-tryptophan as a culture medium, being 6.03, 3.07, and 1.02 mg g-1 , for Act-X2 , ActD, and Act-XOβ , respectively. The ethyl acetate extract of Streptomyces sp. GLL-9 cultivated under the optimal fermentation conditions (EAE-1) can efficiently control these two citrus diseases by excessively producing reactive oxygen species (ROS) in both pathogens, damaging the cell membranes of P. italicum, and inhibiting the growth of Xcc. In addition, Act-X2 , ActD, and EAE-1 displayed broad-spectrum antifungal activity. CONCLUSION EAE-1 and Acts produced by Streptomyces sp. GLL-9 have high potential as novel antimicrobial agents against plant pathogens. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
In recent years, antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) have enjoyed a renaissance, as the world is currently facing an emergency in terms of severe infections that evade antibiotics’ treatment. This is due to the increasing emergence and spread of resistance mechanisms. Covalent conjugation with polymers is an interesting strategy to modulate the pharmacokinetic profile of AMPs and enhance their biocompatibility profile. It can also be an effective approach to develop active coatings for medical implants and devices, and to avoid biofilm formation on their surface. In this concise review, we focus on the last 5 years’ progress in this area, pertaining in particular to AMPs that contain d-amino acids, as well as their role, and the advantages that may arise from their introduction into AMPs.

Biological control and plant growth promotion properties of Streptomyces albidoflavus St-220 isolated from Salvia miltiorrhiza rhizosphere. Front Plant Sci 2022; 13:976813.

Abstract
Root rot disease caused by Fusarium oxysporum is a devastating disease of Salvia miltiorrhiza and dramatically affected the production and quality of Sa. miltiorrhiza. Besides the agricultural and chemical control, biocontrol agents can be utilized as an additional solution. In the present study, an actinomycete that highly inhibited F. oxysporum was isolated from rhizosphere soil and identified as based on morphological and molecular characteristics. Greenhouse assay proved that the strain had significant biological control effect against Sa. miltiorrhiza root rot disease and growth-promoting properties on Sa. miltiorrhiza seedlings. To elucidate the biocontrol and plant growth-promoting properties of St-220, we employed an analysis combining genome mining and metabolites detection. Our analyses based on genome sequence and bioassays revealed that the inhibitory activity of St-220 against F. oxysporum was associated with the production of enzymes targeting fungal cell wall and metabolites with antifungal activities. Strain St-220 possesses phosphate solubilization activity, nitrogen fixation activity, siderophore and indole-3-acetic acid production activity in vitro, which may promote the growth of Sa. miltiorrhiza seedlings. These results suggest that St. albidoflavus St-220 is a promising biocontrol agent and also a biofertilizer that could be used in the production of Sa. miltiorrhiza.
