Abstract:

The objective of this study was to promote the application of biological control technology in a practical setting. As determined by the dilution coating plate method, the lethal temperature for ZJ1 was 96 ℃ for 20 min and the lethal pH was ≤4 or ≥14. Biofilm can absorb metal ions in soil to improve the plant growth environment, and can help biocontrol strains to colonize the surface of plants and exert their biocontrol functions. The effect of several common metal ions on the biofilm formation of ZJ1 was evaluated using a bacterial membrane detection method. It was found that the biofilm production of ZJ1 was inhibited by 0.3% Zn2+, Mn2+, Cu2+, and Fe2+, but promoted by 0.3% Mg2+ or K+. The biofilm formation ability of ZJ1 was further measured using a quantitative 96-well microplate method, and the results showed that ZJ1 was a strong biofilm-forming strain. The results of an indoor pot experiment showed that the protective effect of a 10-fold dilution of ZJ1 fermentation broth on tomato early blight was up to 95.54%, and the therapeutic effect of a 200-fold dilution of ZJ1 fermentation broth on tomato gray mold was up to 91.99%. Considering the therapeutic and protective effects of ZJ1 against these two disease-causing organisms, the 200-fold dilution of ZJ1 fermentation broth had the best control effect. The fermentation broth of ZJ1 at 10-fold to 200-fold dilution also had a growth-promoting effect on tomato plants. Therefore, strain ZJ1 is a microbial strain with biocontrol potential.
