Abstract

Ochratoxin A (OTA) that is one of mycotoxins produced mainly by Aspergillus spp. is a common contaminant of stored grains and poses health hazards to human and livestock. The aim of this study is to explore the ability of isolated bacteria Bacillus subtilis AF13 and Streptomyces shenzhenensis YR226 to inhibit growth and OTA production of 3 ochratoxigenic Aspergillus strains. The antifungal activity against mycelial growth and sporulation of Aspergillus strains was examined by coculture with AF13 and YR226 on potato dextrose agar plate. AF13 and YR226 reduced 77.58 and 78.48% of fungal colony radius, respectively, and both strains inhibited fungal sporulation up to 99% in 10 days of incubation. YR226 also reduced more than 91% of spore germination of 3 fungal strains. When Aspergillus strains were cocultured with AF13 or YR226 in yeast extract sucrose medium, mycelial growth and OTA production decreased in all three fungal strains. In particular, AF13 completely inhibited the mycelial growth of A. alutaceus and inhibited its OTA production by 99%, and YR226 also reduced mycelial growth and toxin production up to 99%, respectively. Antimicrobial substances produced by AF13 and YR226 included siderophore, chitinase, protease, ${\beta}$-1,3-glucanase and biosurfactant. These results suggest that AF13 and YR226 can be used in a biological method to prevent valuable crops against mycotoxigenic fungi, and therefore decrease economic damage in agriculture and feed industry.

Ochratoxin A (OTA)는 주로 Aspergillus가 생성하는 진균 독소의 하나로 저장 곡물의 흔한 오염물질로 인간과 가축의 건강을 위협하고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 분리 세균인 Bacillus subtilis AF13과 Streptomyces shenzhenensis YR226의 OTA 생성 Aspergillus 균주들에 대한 생장과 OTA 생성 저해능 조사이다. OTA 생성 세 균주들의 균사 생장과 포자 형성에 대한 항진균활성은 한천 평판에서 AF13과 YR226 균주와의 공동배양에 의해 조사되었다. AF13과 YR226은 10일 배양 중 진균 집락 직경을 각각 77.58%와 78.48% 감소시켰으며, 두 균주 모두 포자 형성을 99%까지 저해하였다. YR226은 또한 세 진균 균주의 포자 발아도 91% 이상 감소시켰다. Yeast extract sucrose 배지에서 Aspergillus와 AF13 또는 YR226 균주를 동시배양하였을 때 세 종류 진균 모두 균사체 생장과 OTA 생성이 감소하였다. 특히 AF13은 A. alutaceus의 균사체 생장을 완전히 저해하고 OTA 생성은 99% 감소시켰으며, YR226은 균사체 생장과 독소 생성을 99%까지 저해하였다. AF13과 YR226이 생성하는 항진균물질에는 siderophore, chitinase, protease, ${\beta}$-1,3-glucanase와 biosurfactant가 포함된다. 이 결과는 AF13과 YR226이 독소생성 진균으로부터 가치있는 농작물을 보호하는 생물학적 방법으로 이용될 수 있으며, 따라서 농업과 사료산업에서 경제적 피해를 감소시킬 수 있을 것이다.
