Biocontrol of strawberry gray mold caused by Botrytis cinerea with the termite associated Streptomyces sp. sdu1201 and actinomycin D

Abstract: Strawberry gray mold caused by Botrytis cinerea is one of the most severe diseases in pre- and post-harvest periods. Although fungicides have been an effective way to control this disease, they can cause serious “3R” problems (Resistance, Resurgence and Residue). In this study, Streptomyces sp. sdu1201 isolated from the hindgut of the fungus-growing termite Odontotermes formosanus revealed significant antifungal activity against B. cinerea. Four compounds (1–4) were isolated from Streptomyces sp. sdu1201 and f… Show more

“…In particular, powdery mildew, a significant pest and disease of strawberries covered in this paper, results in up to 70% yield loss [ 5 , 6 ]. Also, gray mold, another major condition, generally damages 15–20% of strawberries and more than 50% in severe cases [ 7 ]. Pesticides used to prevent this are also used in trillions of US dollars, of which only 0.1% kills the target, and the rest is absorbed and distributed into the environment and causes pollution [ 8 , 9 ].…”

“…The broad host range of S. sclerotiorum , its adaptability to varied environments, and its ability to produce long-lasting sclerotia that can survive in the soil for prolonged periods make it a formidable adversary ( Schwartz et al., 2005 ; Figueirêdo et al., 2010 ; Elsheshtawi et al., 2017 ). Although the biological control of S. sclerotiorum has been experimentally proofed recently ( Ali and Atallah, 2020 ; Atallah and Yassin, 2020 ; Atallah et al., 2022 ), conventional control measures mainly rely on chemical fungicides, which have several concerns about their disadvantageous environmental effect and the potential emergence of fungicide-resistant strains ( Zubrod et al., 2019 ; Yong et al., 2022 ). Therefore, it is necessary to introduce some eco-friendly alternatives to control S. sclerotiorum particularly, and soil-borne phytopathogens in general.…”

“… 7 However, people have gradually become aware of the numerous negative impacts of these chemicals, including the increasingly serious “3 R” (Resistance, Resurgence and Residue). 8 To address these concerns, biocontrol has emerged as a promising alternative to chemical treatments. 9 …”
