Identification and Antifungal Mechanism of a Novel Actinobacterium Streptomyces huiliensis sp. nov. Against Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense Tropical Race 4 of Banana

Banana is an important fruit crop. Fusarium wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense tropical race 4 (Foc TR4) seriously threatens the global banana industry. It is difficult to control the disease spread using chemical measures. In addition, commercial resistant cultivars are also lacking....

description Banana is an important fruit crop. Fusarium wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense tropical race 4 (Foc TR4) seriously threatens the global banana industry. It is difficult to control the disease spread using chemical measures. In addition, commercial resistant cultivars are also lacking. Biological control is considered as a promising strategy using antagonistic microbes. Actinomycetes, especially Streptomyces, are potential sources of producing novel bioactive secondary metabolites.
