RESUMO
During the investigation of beneficial agricultural microorganisms, a novel Bacillus strain was isolated. To isolate an effective microorganism that has antifungal activity, soil samples were collected from an agricultural field in the southern area of Pohang, Korea. One strain that had specificity on plant pathogens was analyzed. According to 16S rRNA sequencing, the isolated bacterium was identified as Bacillus velezensis and was designated as HY-3479. Few assays were taken to analyze the characteristics of the HY-3479 strain. In agar plate assay, HY-3479 showed antifungal effects on Colletotrichum acutatum, Cylindrocarpon destructans, Rhizoctonia solani, and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. The strain also had various enzymatic activities including protease, amylase, and ß-1,3-glucanase, which were relatively higher than control strains. Metabolites study of strain HY-3479 was conducted by GC-MS analysis and the bacterium contained many plant growth promoters like 3-methyl-1-butanol, (R, R)-2,3-butanediol, acetoin, and benzoic acid which were not found in untreated TSB medium. In gene expression analysis, antifungal lipopeptide genes like srfc (surfactin) and ituD (iturin A) were highly produced in the HY-3479 strain compared to the control strain KCTC 13417. B. velezensis strain HY-3479 may be the candidate to be an effective microorganism in agriculture and become a beneficial biocontrol agent with plant growth-promoting activities.

Oat (Avena sativa L.) is one of the most widely consumed cereal grains worldwide and is considered as an important cereal crop with high nutritional value and potential health benefits. With different bacterial strains, fermented oat extracts were examined for the antioxidant and antiaging effects on the skin after optimization of extraction conditions. Fermented oats contained high avenanthramides, and its function was investigated on matrix metalloproteinase-1 and collagen expression with human dermal fibroblast cells. After fractionation, butanol layers showed the highest avenanthramides contents. Therefore, the microbial fermentation of oats enhances the quality and content of functional ingredients of oats, which provide natural dietary supplements, antioxidants, and antiaging agents.
