Biological control serves as a crucial strategy for crop disease management. The biocontrol potential and plant growth-promoting effects of the strain YTBTa14 were investigated. Genetic sequencing confirmed YTBTa14 as Pseudomonas chlororaphis, which exhibited broad-spectrum antifungal activity against multiple pathogens affecting grapevine, apple, cherry, and wheat. YTBTa14 significantly enhanced the growth of wheat and grapevine, specifically increasing wheat seed germination rates and improving root and coleoptile development. In grapevine plant, significant increases in root length, stem length, and fresh weight were observed. The strain demonstrated robust adaptability and stable antagonism under varying sodium chloride (NaCl) concentrations, pH levels, and temperatures. YTBTa14 modulated plant hormone levels, elevating the content of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), gibberellins (GA), and cytokinins (CTK). Furthermore, it effectively stimulated the production of key plant defense enzymes, including superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), and catalase (CAT). Pretreatment of grape leaves with YTBTa14 triggered plant cell defense response and upregulated the expression of defense-related genes PR1 (pathogenesis-related protein 1) and PAL1 (phenylalanine ammonia-lyase 1), thereby mitigating the severity of downy mildew disease and inducing systemic resistance. These findings demonstrate that YTBTa14 is a highly promising candidate for development as a multifunctional agricultural biocontrol agent.
CRISPR/Cas12a, a promising gene editing technology, faces limitations due to its requirement for a thymine (T)-rich protospacer adjacent motif (PAM). Despite the development of Cas12a variants with expanded PAM profiles, many genomic loci, especially those with guanine-cytosine (GC)-rich PAMs, have remained inaccessible. This study develops a small RNA toxin-aided strategy to evolve ErCas12a for targeting GC-rich PAMs, resulting in the creation of enhanced ErCas12a (enErCas12a). EnErCas12a demonstrates the ability to recognize GC-rich PAMs and target five times more PAM sequences than the wild-type ErCas12a. Furthermore, enErCas12a achieves efficient gene editing in both bacterial and mammalian cells at various sites with non-canonical PAMs, including GC-rich PAMs such as GCCC, CGCC, and GGCC, which are inaccessible to previous Cas12a variants. Moreover, enErCas12a effectively targets PAM sequences with a GC content exceeding 75% in mammalian cells, providing a valuable alternative to the existing Cas12a toolkit. Importantly, enErCas12a maintains high specificity at targets with canonical PAMs, while also demonstrating enhanced specificity at targets with non-canonical PAMs. Collectively, this work establishes enErCas12a as a promising tool for gene editing in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes.
Leaf spot, a major apple disease, manifests in diverse symptoms. In this study, the pathogen was isolated from diseased ‘Yanfu 3’ apple leaves in Yantai, Shandong Province, and identified as Neopestalotiopsis clavispora through morphological observation, molecular identification, and multi-gene (ITS, TEF1α, and TUB2) phylogenetic analysis. Three isolates (YTNK01, YTNK02, and YTNK03) were selected for pathogenicity tests to verify Koch’s postulates. To our knowledge, this is the first report of N. clavispora being responsible for apple leaf spots in China, and the disease has been named ‘apple Neopestalotiopsis leaf spot’. Additionally, N. clavispora was found to infect crabapple, sweet cherry, grape, peach, and pear under laboratory conditions, indicating that these fruit trees may be potential hosts for N. clavispora in the field. The in vitro toxicity of ten fungicides to the pathogen was assessed using the mycelial growth rate method. All ten fungicides were effective in inhibiting the growth of N. clavispora. Among them, those based on pylocyanonitrile, propiconazole, pyraclostrobin, tebuconazole, diphenoxazole, and osthole showed higher toxicity to N. clavispora, with EC50 values of 0.11, 0.41, 0.47, 1.32, 1.85, and 3.82 µg/mL, respectively. These fungicides could be used as alternatives to prevent this disease in production. Overall, these findings provide valuable insights into the characteristics of N. clavispora causing apple leaf spot and are crucial for developing effective management strategies.

Apple Alternaria blotch disease, caused by Alternaria alternata (Fr.) Keissl, is one of the most famous leaf diseases. When the disease is prevalent, it causes leaf abscission and influences the formation of flower buds and photosynthesis. Therefore, a simple, rapid, high-specificity and sensitivity method for monitoring infected leaves at early developmental stages is urgently needed, so that the occurrence and expansion of A. alternata can be controlled in time. In our research, a rapid, specific and efficient loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) method was developed to detect A. alternata within 60 min. Six primers of LAMP detection can only specifically amplify the aapg-1 gene in A. alternata but not in four other important fungi in apples. The aapg-1 gene encodes endopolygalacturonase in A. alternata, and there are significant differences among different species. Thus, it was applied as the target for LAMP primers. Compared to conventional PCR detection, our LAMP method had the same sensitivity as that of detecting as little as 1 fg of pure genomic DNA of A. alternata. When leaves were inoculated with A. alternata conidia, LAMP detected 1 × 102 conidia/mL as the minimum concentration. However, the traditional tissue isolation and identification method only isolated A. alternata from leaves inoculated with 1 × 105 and 1 × 106 conidia/mL, indicating that the LAMP method was more sensitive than the traditional tissue isolation and identification method for A. alternata before symptoms. Further tests also indicated that LAMP detection was more accurate and sensitive than the traditional tissue isolation and identification method for A. alternata in leaves with the Alternaria blotch symptom collected from the field. Our results showed that the LAMP-targeting the aapg-1 gene has the advantages of high sensitivity, specificity and simplicity and can be used for rapid detection and early monitoring of A. alternata in the field. LAMP is instructive for us to effectively prevent and control apple Alternaria blotch disease.

With the rapid development of electrolytic manganese industry, the environmental problems caused by the storage of electrolytic manganese slag are particularly prominent. It not only occupies land resources, but also easily causes heavy metal pollution in soil, surface water and groundwater. Therefore, it is necessary to treat electrolytic manganese slag safely and effectively. The paper mainly studies the solidification/stabilization of electrolytic manganese slag and its environmental safety for road filling, in order to open up a new way of harmless and resource utilization of electrolytic manganese slag. In this paper, lime and fly ash were used as stabilizers and cement was used as curing agent to stabilize manganese slag, and the stabilization effect of Mn and Pb in manganese slag was studied. The stabilization effect of manganese (Mn) and lead (Pb) in manganese slag was studied. The results show that the dosage of stabilizer quicklime is 2.5%, fly ash is 3%, and the dosage of solidifying agent cement is 12%, the solidification/stabilization effect is the best compared with other ratios, then the leaching concentrations of Mn and Pb meets the requirements of China’s surface water environmental quality standards for category III water sources, which can be used as domestic water after treatment. Under the optimal ratio of stabilization effect, the compressive strength and slump are 13.8 MPa and 50 mm, respectively. The research results of the paper can provide a new way for the harmless treatment of manganese slag and the resource utilization of new materials.

The endophytic Bacillus amyloliquefaciens YTB1407 was previously reported to promote the growth of sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas cv. Yanshu 25). Here, we demonstrate in both in vitro and pot trial assays that pre-treatment with YTB1407 suspension could enhance resistance against root rot disease and black rot disease, caused by Fusarium solani Mart. Sacc. f. sp. batatas McClure and Ceratocystis fimbriata Ell. & Halst on sweet potato, respectively. When seedlings were infected with fungal pathogens at 10 days post irrigation, pre-treatment with YTB1407 suspension decreased these pathogens and YTB1407 bacterial biomass in sweet potato roots. The pre-treatment activated the expression of salicylic acid (SA)-responsive PR-1 gene, raised SA content, and reduced hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in the host to resist F. solani, while it enhanced the expression levels of SA-responsive NPR1 and PR1 genes and increased SA content to resist C. fimbriata. The disease resistance control effect initiated by pre-treatment with YTB1407 for root rot pathogen (F. solani) was better than for black rot pathogen (C. fimbriata). The results indicated that Bacillus amyloliquefaciens YTB1407 played a pivotal role in enhancing resistance to two fungi pathogens in sweet potato, through production of some antifungal metabolites to decrease infection in the early stage as well as induction of SA-dependent systemic resistance.
