Research on the microbiome residing in suppressive soils for Ggt biocontrol has shown to be highly efficient, with bacterial consortia proving to be more effective than individual strains, showcasing a potential strategy for biocontrol.
Take-all disease is the most important biotic factor affecting cereal productivity, causing 30-50% of crop losses. The causal agent is the ascomycete soil-borne pathogen Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici (Ggt). Current control measures are ineffective, because Ggt can remain saprophytic in soils for long periods. Therefore, the study of the microbiome residing in suppressive soils (SS) is a promising niche of Ggt biocontrol. Here, we evaluated the efficiency of Serratia sp., Bacillus sp., and Acinetobacter sp. isolated from SS against the incidence of Ggt on wheat. Our results demonstrated that plants inoculated with the bacterial consortium in both greenhouse and field conditions were highly efficient in Ggt biocontrol, more so than individual strains. The disease reduction was evidenced by higher biomass production, fewer copies of the Ggt genome with a concomitant curtailment of blackening of roots, a decrease of lipid peroxidation, and an increase of superoxide dismutase activity. The ability of the microbial consortium over that of single strains could be attributable to interspecies communication as a strategy to biocontrol; i.e., higher chitinase activity. In conclusion, bacterial consortia from SS are an important niche of Ggt biocontrol, serving as a model for other soil-borne pathogens.
