본 연구에서는 기 선발한 Enterobacter asburiae ObRS-5 균주를 1×10⁸ cfu mL^-1 농도로 고추에 관주 처리했을 때 Phytophthora capsici에 의한 고추역병을 74.6% 방제하는 효과가 있었다. E. asburiae ObRS-5 균주에 의한 고추역병 방제 메커니즘을 확인하기 위해 고추의 PR1, PR4 및 PR10 유전자를 특이적으로 증폭하는 프라이머를 이용하여 quantitative PCR을 수행하였다. 그 결과 E. asburiae ObRS-5 균주를 처리한 고추에서 대조구와 비교하여 상기 세 가지 유전자의 발현이 모두 높은 수준을 유지하였다. 또한 E. asburiae ObRS-5 균주는 고추의 생육을 억제하지 않으면서 ISR 반응을 유도하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 통하여 P. capsici이 침입할 때 E. asburiae ObRS-5 균주가 매개하는 ISR 메커니즘을 통해 Phytophthora 역병의 제어가 가능한 것으로 사료된다.

Gom-chwi (Ligularia fischeri) is severely infected with Phytophthora drechsleri, the causal organism of Phytophthora root rot, an economically important crop disease that needs management throughout the cultivation period. In the present study, Phytophthora root rot was controlled by using bacterial isolates from rhizosphere soils collected from various plants and screened for antagonistic activity against P. drechsleri. A total of 172 bacterial strains were isolated, of which, 49 strains showed antagonistic activities by dual culture assay. In the seedling assay, six out of the 49 strains showed a predominant effect on suppressing P. drechsleri. Among the six strains, the ObRS-5 strain showed remarkable against P. drechsleri when treated with seed dipping or soil drenching. The ObRS-5 strain was identified as Enterobacter asburiae based on 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequences analysis. The bacterial cells of E. asburiae ObRS-5 significantly suppressed sporangium formation and zoospore germination in P. drechsleri by 87.4% and 66.7%, respectively. In addition, culture filtrate of E. asburiae ObRS-5 also significantly inhibited sporangium formation and zoospore germination by 97.0% and 67.6%, respectively. Soil drenched bacterial cells, filtrate, and culture solution of E. asburiae ObRS-5 effectively suppressed Phytophthora root rot by 63.2%, 57.9%, and 81.1%, respectively. Thus, E. asburiae ObRS-5 could be used as a potential agent for the biological control of Phytophthora root rot infecting gom-chwi.
