Description
Ying-ping Hu, Guo-dong Lu, Dong-mei Lin, and a wider team wrote this research paper, published in 2025. It finds two bacteria living inside upland rice that can battle Fusarium head blight fungus, a major cereal enemy, with chemical weapons of their own.
The team screened the rice's inner microbes against the fungus in paired dishes. Two strains, a Pseudomonas and a Bacillus subtilis, blocked fungal growth by about seventy and seventy-six percent. Their suspensions also rescued infected seedlings within a week. Chemical analysis credited two arsenals: fatty lipopeptide extracts that stunted the fungus's threads, and volatile compounds drifting through air that did the same. Microscopy showed the damage up close. The authors present the pair as seedling bodyguards for breeding and biocontrol programs, potentially cutting fungicide use in the field.
