Abstract

White line-inducing principle (WLIP, 1), together with two new cyclic lipopeptides (CLPs) WLIPβ (2) and WLIPγ (3), were characterized from the supernatant of Pseudomonas canadensis Q3-1 via precursor-directed biosynthesis (PDB) in the current study. They were purified from the supernatant of P. canadensis Q3-1 by solid-phase extraction (SPE) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and their structures were mainly determined via bioinformatic analyses, spectrometric and spectroscopic techniques, as well as single crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD). These WLIPs share (R)-3-hydroxydecanoic acid (HDA), but they differ from each other in the composition of peptidic sequences. In addition, these CLPs showed biocontrol activities against Phytophthora blight (caused by Phytophthora capsici) in peppers. Collectively, this study has shown that PDB could be used for generating new CLPs in Pseudomonas spp. Moreover, we have confirmed that WLIP, WLIPβ, and WLIPγ could be used as lead agrochemicals to control Phytophthora blight in peppers.
