RESUMO
Root-knot nematodes (RKNs) are distributed globally, including in agricultural fields contaminated by heavy metals (HM), and can cause serious crop damages. Having a method that could control RKNs in HM-contaminated soil while limit HM accumulation in crops could provide significant benefits to both farmers and consumers. In this study, we showed that the nematophagous fungus Purpureocillium lavendulum YMF1.683 exhibited a high nematocidal activity against the RKN Meloidogyne incognita and a high tolerance to CdCl2. Comparing to the P. lavendulum YMF1.838 which showed low tolerance to Cd2+, strain YMF1.683 effectively suppressed M. incognita infection and significantly reduced the Cd2+ uptake in tomato root and fruit in soils contaminated by 100 mg/kg Cd2+. Transcriptome analyses and validation of gene expression by RT-PCR revealed that the mechanisms contributed to high Cd-resistance in YMF1.683 mainly included activating autophagy pathway, increasing exosome secretion of Cd2+, and activating antioxidation systems. The exosomal secretory inhibitor GW4869 reduced the tolerance of YMF1.683 to Cd2+, which firstly demonstrated that fungal exosome was involved in HM tolerance. The up-regulation of glutathione synthesis pathway, increasing enzyme activities of both catalase and superoxide dismutase also played important roles in Cd2+ tolerance of YMF1.683. In Cd2+-contaminated soil, YMF1.683 limited Cd2+-uptake in tomato by up-regulating the genes of ABCC family in favor of HM sequestration in plant, and down-regulating the genes of ZIP, HMA, NRAMP, YSL families associated with HM absorption, transport, and uptake in plant. Our results demonstrated that YMF1.683 could be a promising bio-agent in eco-friendly management of M. incognita in Cd2+ contaminated soils.

An actinobacterial strain, designated R-N-C8T, was isolated from the rhizosphere soil of Arabidopsis thaliana collected in Yunnan Province, south-west China. Based on the results of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain R-N-C8T had highest similarity to Nocardioides terrae CGMCC 1.7056T (96.5%), Nocardioides opuntiae KCTC 19804T (96.3%) and Nocardioides currus IB-3T (96.1%), and lower than 96.0â% similarity to other members of the genus Nocardioides. Phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain R-N-C8T formed an isolated branch with N. terrae CGMCC 1.7056T and N. opuntiae KCTC 19804T. The polar lipids contained phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, one unidentified phosphoglycolipid and four unidentified phospholipids in the cellular membrane. The major fatty acids were identified as iso-C16â:â0, anteiso-C17â:â0, iso-C17â:â0, summed feature 9 (iso-C17â:â1 ω9c and/or C16â:â0 10-methyl) and iso-C15â:â0. The predominant respiratory quinone was MK-8(H4) and ll-diaminopimelic acid was the diagnostic diamino acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan. The genomic DNA G+C content was 70.9âmol%. The orthologous average nucleotide identiy values between N. terrae CGMCC 1.7056T, N. currus IB-3T and strain R-N-C8T were 77.1 and 75.1â%, respectively. DNA-DNA hybridization values between N. terrae CGMCC 1.7056T, N. currus IB-3T and strain R-N-C8T were 20.7 and 19.9â% respectively. Data from phenotypic and genotypic analyses supported that strain R-N-C8T represents a new species of Nocardioides, for which the name Nocardioides nematodiphilus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is R-N-C8T (=CGMCC 1.18723T= KCTC 49528T).

The extensive use of chemical pesticides, such as herbicides, has resulted in significant environmental pollution. Microbial degradation represents a crucial approach for managing this pesticide-associated pollution, with enrichment culturing serving as a method for isolating pesticide-degrading microorganisms. However, the efficiency of this strategy is limited, often yielding only a few isolated strains. In this study, a new mineral salt medium (MSM) was developed, and a high-throughput method was used for screening pendimethalin-degrading bacteria by measuring the bacterial growth in the MSM. The utilization of this method resulted in the isolation of 56 pendimethalin-degrading bacteria from approximately 2000 bacterial strains, including 37 Bacillus spp., 10 Alcaligenes spp., 5 Pseudomonas spp., and other 4 strains identified for the first time as pendimethalin-degrading strains. This method may hold promise not only for isolating bacterial strains capable of degrading other pesticides but also for facilitating the utilization of the substantial bacterial strains stored in bacterial banks.

Background and aims: Root-knot nematodes (RKN; Meloidogyne spp.) are among the highly prevalent and significantly detrimental pathogens that cause severe economic and yield losses in crops. Currently, control of RKN primarily relies on the application of chemical nematicides but it has environmental and public health concerns, which open new doors for alternative methods in the form of biological control. Methods: In this study, we investigated the nematicidal and attractive activities of an endophytic strain WF01 against Meloidogyne incognita in concentration-dependent experiments. The active nematicidal metabolite was extracted in the WF01 crude extract through the Sephadex column, and its structure was identified by nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectrometry data. Results: The strain WF01 was identified as Aspergillus tubingensis based on morphological and molecular characteristics. The nematicidal and attractive metabolite of A. tubingensis WF01 was identified as oxalic acid (OA), which showed solid nematicidal activity against M. incognita, having LC50 of 27.48 µg ml-1. The Nsy-1 of AWC and Odr-7 of AWA were the primary neuron genes for Caenorhabditis elegans to detect OA. Under greenhouse, WF01 broth and 200 µg ml-1 OA could effectively suppress the disease caused by M. incognita on tomatoes respectively with control efficiency (CE) of 62.5% and 70.83%, and promote plant growth. In the field, WF01-WP and 8% OA-WP formulations showed moderate CEs of 51.25%-61.47% against RKN in tomato and tobacco. The combined application of WF01 and OA resulted in excellent CEs of 66.83% and 69.34% toward RKN in tomato and tobacco, respectively. Furthermore, the application of WF01 broth or OA significantly suppressed the infection of J2s in tomatoes by upregulating the expression levels of the genes (PAL, C4H, HCT, and F5H) related to lignin synthesis, and strengthened root lignification. Conclusion: Altogether, our results demonstrated that A. tubingensis WF01 exhibited multiple weapons to control RKN mediated by producing OA to lure and kill RKN in a concentration-dependent manner and strengthen root lignification. This fungus could serve as an environmental bio-nematicide for managing the diseases caused by RKN.
