Pseudomonas fluorescens GL20 is a plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium that produces a large amount of hydroxamate siderophore under iron-limited conditions. The strain GL20 considerably inhibited the spore germination and hyphal growth of a plant pathogenic fungus, Fusarium solani, when iron was limited, significantly suppressed the root-rot disease on beans caused by F. solani, and enhanced the plant growth. The mechanism for the beneficial effect of strain GL20 on the disease suppression was due to the siderophore production, evidenced by mutant strains derived from the strain. Analysis of the outer membrane protein profile revealed that the growth of strain GL20 induced the synthesis of specific iron-regulated outer membrane proteins with molecular masses of 85- and 90 kDa as the high-affinity receptors for the ferric siderophore. In addition, a cross-feeding assay revealed the presence of multiple inducible receptors for heterologous siderophores in the strain. In order to induce increased efficacy and potential in biological control of plant disease, a siderophore-overproducing mutant, GL20-S207, was prepared by NTG mutagenesis. The mutant GL20-S207 produced nearly 2.3 times more siderophore than the parent strain. In pot trials of beans with F. solani, the mutant increased plant growth up to 1.5 times compared with that of the parent strain. These results suggest that the plant growth-promoting P. fluorescens GL20 and the genetically bred P. fluorescens GL20-S207 can play an important role in the biological control of soil-borne plant diseases in the rhizosphere.

인삼은 현금작물로 통용되는 약초로 국내에서 매우 중요한 작물 중 하나이다. 인삼의 수확까지 경작 기간은 4~5년으로 이 기간 동안 여러 토양병원균으로부터 피해를 받게되며, 심할 경우에는 폐포로 경제적 손실을 입게된다. 이러한 뿌리썩음병에 의한 피해 현황을 조사하기 위해 충남, 충북, 강원지역의 6 년근 채굴지 25농가를 대상으로 인삼 뿌리썩음병 발생현황, 발병지수 및 병원균을 분석하였다. 당진 D는 발병도가 2.9로 조사지역 중 가장 높았으며, 괴산 C는 가장 낮은 발병도를 보였다. 인삼 뿌리썩음병의 병반으로부터 병원균을 분리한 결과, 625 균주 중 54.4%가 인삼 뿌리썩음병 관련 병원균인 I. radicicola와 F. solani로 분류가 되었으며, 염기서열을 이용하여 이들 병원균의 유전적 다양성을 확인하였다. 특히 I. radicicola 그룹 내에서도 강병원성 균주로 알려진 I. mors-panacis와 상대적으로 병원성이 약한 I. liriodendri, I. robusta, I. cyclaminicola 등이 동정되었다. F. solani의 경우는 두 개의 그룹으로 구분되어 지나, 추후 다양한 마커를 이용한 유전분석과 병원성 연구를 통해 다양성 연구를 진행해야할필요가 있다. 추후 이 결과는 인삼의 뿌리썩음병 진단 및 방제 있어서 기초자료로 활용될 것으로 판단된다.

A continuous enrichment culture procedure was used to isolate bacteria from various soil sources capable of suppressing large patch disease of turfgrass. Six isolates consistently suppressed large patch in turfgrass, and ranged in the spectrum of extracellular enzymes that they expressed. The best disease- suppressing isolate, TBM912, expressed protease, CMCase, and pectinase activity and inhibited the growth of Rhizectonin solani and Betrytis cinerea in vitro. Here we show that this strain also produces an antibiotic that was identified by TLC, SDS-PACE and HPLC analysis as lipopeptide.

A potential biocontrol bacterium, YB-70 was isolated from a rhizosphere in suppressive soil and identified as a strain of Bacillus subtilis. In several biochemical and in vitro antibiosis tests on Fusarium solani with the culture filterates from B. subtilis YB-70, we found that antifungal mechanism of B. subtilis YB-70 was mediated by antibiotic substances produced from the bacterium. These antifungal substances were appeared to be hear-resistant, micromolecular, and ethy alcohol soluble. Antifungal agents produced by B. subtilis YB-70 showed strong inhibified against root-rotting fungi F. solani in in vivo pot test. An antifungal substance. YBS-1s, was purified from the culture broth of B. subtilis YB-70 by isoelectronic precipitation, silica gel column chromatography and Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography analysis by Fab-MASS, $^{1}$H-NMR, $^{13}$C-NMR, DEPT, and amino acid analyzer revealed that the YBS-1A was a peptide antibiotics of iturin class containing seven amino acids from five different groups, and the other(YBS-1B) was an analogue of iturin group composed of 11 amino acids with larher molecular weight of about 1, 500 dalton, which was lager than that of iturin A.

Antibiotic resistance by pathogenic bacteria and fungi is one of the most serious global public health problems in the 21^st century, directly affecting human health and lifestyle. Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus with strong resistance to the common antibiotics have been isolated from Intensive Care Unit patients at Zagazig Hospital. Thus, in this study we assessed the biocidal activity of nanoparticles of silver, copper and zinc synthesized by Fusarium solani KJ 623702 against these multidrug resistant-bacteria. The synthesized Metal Nano-particles (MNPs) were characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, and Zeta potential. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) result showed the presence of different functional groups such as carboxyl, amino and thiol, ester and peptide bonds in addition to glycosidic bonds that might stabilize the dispersity of MNPs from aggregation. The antimicrobial potential of MNPs by F. solani against the multidrug-resistant (MDR) P. aeruginosa and S. aureus in addition to the mycotoxigenic Aspergillus awamori, A. fumigatus and F. oxysporum was investigated, based on the visual growth by diameter of inhibition zone. Among the synthesized MNPs, the spherical AgNPs (13.70 nm) displayed significant effect against P. aeruginosa (Zone of Inhibition 22.4 mm and Minimum Inhibitory Concentration 21.33 ㎍/ml), while ZINC oxide Nano-Particles were the most effective against F. oxysporum (ZOI, 18.5 mm and MIC 24.7 ㎍/ml). Transmission Electron Microscope micrographs of AgNP-treated P. aeruginosa showed cracks and pits in the cell wall, with internalization of NPs. Production of pyocyanin pigment was significantly inhibited by AgNPs in a concentration-dependent manner, and at 5-20 ㎍ of AgNPs/ml, the pigment production was reduced by about 15-100%, respectively.

Fusarium root rot caused by the soil-borne fungus Fusarium solani is one of the most important fungal diseases of cassava in Thailand, resulting in high yield losses of more than 80%. This study aimed to investigate if the exogenous application of salicylic acid formulations (Zacha) can induce resistance in cassava against Fusarium root rot and observe the biochemical changes in induced cassava leaf tissues through synchrotron radiation based on Fourier-transform infrared (SR-FTIR) microspectroscopy. We demonstrated that the application of Zacha11 prototype formulations could induce resistance against Fusarium root rot in cassava. The in vitro experimental results showed that Zacha11 prototype formulations inhibited the growth of F. solani at approximately 34.83%. Furthermore, a significant reduction in the disease severity of Fusarium root rot disease at 60 days after challenge inoculation was observed in cassava plants treated with Zacha11 at a concentration of 500 ppm (9.0%). Population densities of F. solani were determined at 7 days after inoculation. Treatment of the Zacha11 at a concentration of 500 ppm resulted in reduced populations compared with the distilled water control and differences among treatment means at each assay date. Moreover, the SR-FTIR spectral changes of Zacha11-treated epidermal tissues of leaves had higher integral areas of lipids, lignins, and pectins (1,770-1,700/cm), amide I (1,700-1,600/cm), amide II (1,600-1,500/cm), hemicellulose, lignin (1,300-1,200/cm), and cellulose (1,155/cm). Therefore, alteration in defensive carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins contributed to generate barriers against Fusarium invasion in cassava roots, leading to lower the root rot disease severity.

A pathogenic fungus causing balloon flower root rot (Platycodon grandiflorum) was isolated from naturally infected roots. The microbial characteristics of the isolated microorganism were similar to those of Rhizoctonia solani. About 500 bacterial species from field soils were screened for a biological agent against the above-mentioned putative pathogen, and several bacteria with the antifungal activity were isolated. Among them, the isolated JS2 was identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa. This strain showed a broad spectrum of antifungal activity potentially. When the antifungal substance was purified from a broth culture of JS2, it was identified as 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol (Phl).

무 포장에서 분리한 Rhizoctonia solani 5군 4형의 7균주(AG1-IA, AG1-IB, AG2-1, AG2-2, AG3, AG4, AG5)를 사용하여 온도, pH, 질소원, 탄소원이 균의 생장에 미치는 영향을 알아보았다. 이들 균사융합군주별, 최적생장온도는 AG2-1, AG2-2, AG4 등은 $20^{\circ}C$에서 AG1-IA, AG1-IB, AG3, AG5 등은 $25^{\circ}C$에서 생장이 가장 양호하였다. pH가 균사융합군별 생장에 미치는 영향은 공히 pH $6\~7$ 범위였다. R. solani의 각 균주별 탄소원 이용도는 AG 1-IA, AG1-IB, AG2-2, AG3, AG5는 glucose, AG2-1은 sucrose, AG4는 fructose가 좋았으나, glycerine, cellulose, lactose는 모든 균주에서 생장이 불량하였다. 질소원이 균사융합군별 각 균주의 생장에 미치는 영향은 $Ca(NO_3)_2$에서 AG1-IA, AG1-IB, AG4, asparagine에서는 AG2-1, $KNO_3$에서는 AG2-2, $NaNO_3$에서는 AG5의 생장이 양호하였으나, $NH_4NO_3$ 첨가구에서는 공히 불량하였다. 즉, 일반적으로 초산태질소와 유기질소는 암모니아태질소보다 이용율이 높았다. C/N율이 각 군별 균주의 생장에 미치는 영향은 C:N=1:1의 비율에서 생장이 가장 좋았고 탄소원보다는 질소원이 생장에 많은 영향을 미쳤다.

Rhizoctonia solani AG2-2에 의해 발생되는 잔디 갈색퍼짐병(large patch)은 한국잔디로 식재된 골프장 페어웨이에서 문제가 되는 대표적 병해이다. 본 연구에서는 잔디 갈색퍼짐병의 생물학적 방제법에 이용할 수 있는 길항 미생물을 R. solani AG2-2에 대한 항균활성과 균사생장 억제율 등을 기준으로 1차 선발하였고, 선발된 길항미생물에 대해 폿트 수준의 생물검정실험을 실시하였다. 두 실험을 통해 선발된 길항미생물 중에서 상대적 길항효과 지수(RPI) 값을 기준으로 잔디 갈색퍼짐병에 대해 가장 우수한 것으로 최종 선발된 길항미생물 CJ-9는 동정한 결과 Bacillus subtilis로 밝혀져, B. subtilis CJ-9이라 명명하였다. B. subtilis CJ-9는 합성농약에 대한 내성 실험을 통해 현장에 적용시 화학 농약과의 혼용이 가능함을 밝혔다. 골프장에서 야외 포장시험을 실시한 결과, 실험 기간동안 합성농약에 의한 관행처리구에서 잔디 갈색퍼짐병이 2차례 발병된 것과 비교하여 B. subtilis CJ-9를 처리한 시험구에서는 전혀 발생하지 않아 방제 효과가 인정되었다. 선택배지를 이용한 병원균 밀도 조사를 통하여 B. subtilis CJ-9 처리가 잔디 갈색퍼짐병을 일으키는 병원균의 밀도를 감소시키는 것을 확인하였다. 따라서 B. subtilis CJ-9이 잔디 갈색퍼짐병 방제를 위해 합성농약을 대체할 수 있는 친환경적인 방제방법이 될 수 있음을 입증하였다.
