Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Strain AP6 strongly antagonised F. solani, with an inhibition rate of 60.2%.
- Observation Strain AP6 showed broad-spectrum antagonistic activity.
- Observation Morphological, physiological, biochemical and whole-genome sequencing data identified the strain as Bacillus velezensis.
- Observation Strain AP6 can produce siderophores, amylase and protease.
- Observation Strain AP6 can produce cellulase and form biofilms.
- Observation Strain AP6 changed the hyphal morphology of F. solani, inhibited spore germination and reduced pathogen viability.
- Intervention effect Strain AP6 alleviated the disease severity of yam.
- Intervention effect Strain AP6 induced accumulation of reactive oxygen species in yam.
- Intervention effect In field trials, a wettable powder of strain AP6 combined with commercial metalaxyl-M and fludioxonil significantly reduced the incidence of brown rot in yam.
- Recommendation The authors conclude B. velezensis AP6 is a promising biocontrol agent offering a practical, sustainable approach to integrated disease management in yam.
