Abstract
Colletotrichum gloeosporioides is a main cause of rubber anthracnose, which results in a huge loss for the natural rubber industry. In this study, an actinomycete strain QY-3 was isolated and had good antagonistic activity against C. gloeosporioides with an inhibition rate of 86.6%. Strain QY-3 wasidentified asStreptomyces deccanensis preliminarily. Millet medium was selected as the optimal fermentation broth for antifungal metabolites production by S. deccanensis QY-3. The culture filtrate extract (CFE) from the millet broth of S. deccanensis QY-3 exhibits broad-spectrum antifungal activity against plant pathogenic fungi, and its EC50 inhibiting the mycelial growth of C. gloeosporioides is 6.3μg/mL. The CFE has good thermal and pH stabilities, and it can break the hyphae and inhibit the conidial germination of C. gloeosporioides. 100μg/mL of CFE had an obvious control effect on rubber anthracnose, and the control efficacy was 63.7% on 5days after inoculation. Two compounds with inhibitory effects on C. gloeosporioides, anthranilic acid and sangivamycin, were isolated from the CFE. The MICs of both compounds against C. gloeosporioides were 29.3 and 23.0μg/mL respectively. In conclusion, the CFE from S. deccanensis QY-3 has great potential to be a promising fungicide for rubber anthracnose.
