| Abstract: | "Black spot disease, which is caused by the pathogenic fungal Ceratocystis fimbriata, seriously affects the production of sweet potato and its quality during postharvest storage. In this study, the preliminary identification of the rhizosphere actinomycete strain SPS-33, and its antifungal activity of volatiles in vitro and in vivo was investigated. Based on morphological identification and phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence, strain SPS-33 was identified as Streptomyces lavendulae. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted by SPS-33 inhibited mycelial growth and sporulation of C. fimbriata in vitro and also induced a series of observable hyphae morphological changes. In an in vivo pathogenicity assay, exposure to SPS-33 significantly decreased the lesion diameter and water loss rate in sweet potato tuberous roots (TRs) inoculated with C. fimbriata. It increased the antioxidant enzymes' activities of peroxidase, catalase, and superoxide dismutase as well as decreased malondialdehyde and increased total soluble sugar. In the VOC profile of SPS-33 detected by a headspace solid-phase micro extraction (HS-SPME) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), heptadecane, tetradecane, and 3-methyl-1-butanol were the most abundant compounds. 2-Methyl-1-butanol, 3-methyl-1-butanol, pyridine, and phenylethyl alcohol showed strong antifungal effects against C. fimbriata. These findings suggest that VOCs from S. lavendulae SPS-33 have the potential for pathogen C. fimbriata control in sweet potato postharvest storage by fumigant action" |
