Abstract
The fungal pathogen Lecanicillium fungicola
causes dry bubble disease in Agaricus bisporus cultivation and affected mushrooms significantly reduce the
yield and revenue for mushroom growers. Biocontrol
agents may represent an alternative and more environmentally friendly treatment option to help control dry
bubble on mushroom farms. Serenade ® is a commercially available biocontrol product used for disease treatment in plant crops. In this work, the in vitro response of
L. fungicola to the bacterial strain active in Serenade,
Bacillus velezensis (QST 713) and a newly isolated
B. velezensis strain (Kos) was assessed. B. velezensis
(QST713 and Kos) both produced zones of inhibition
on plate cultures of L. fungicola, reduced the mycelium
growth in liquid cultures and damaged the morphology
and structure of L. fungicola hyphae. The proteomic
response of the pathogen against these biocontrol strains
was also investigated. Proteins involved in growth and
translation such as 60S ribosomal protein L21-A (−32-
fold) and 40S ribosomal protein S30 (−17-fold) were
reduced in abundance in B. velezensis QST 713 treated
samples, while proteins involved in a stress response
were increased (norsolorinic acid reductase B (47-fold),
isocitrate lyase (11-fold) and isovaleryl-CoA
dehydrogenase (8-fold). L. fungicola was found to have
a similar proteomic response when exposed to
B. velezensis (Kos). This work provides information on
the response of L. fungicola to B. velezensis (QST 713)
and indicates the potential of B. velezensis Kos as a
novel biocontrol agent.
