Abstract

Ginseng is an important medicinal plant cultivated in East Asia for thousands of years. It is typically cultivated in the same field for 4 to 6 years and is exposed to a variety of pathogens. Among them, ginseng root rot is the main reason that leads to the most severe losses. In this study, endophytic bacteria were isolated from healthy ginseng, and endophytes with antagonistic effect against ginseng root rot pathogens were screened out. Among the 17 strains, three carried antagonistic effect, and were resistant to radicicol that is a mycotoxin produced by ginseng root rot pathogens. Finally, Bacillus velezensis CH-15 was selected due to excellent antagonistic effect and radicicol resistance. When CH-15 was inoculated on ginseng root, it not only inhibited the mycelial growth of the pathogen, but also inhibited the progression of disease. CH-15 also carried biosynthetic genes for bacillomycin D, iturin A, bacilysin, and surfactin. In addition, CH-15 culture filtrate significantly inhibited the growth and conidial germination of pathogens. This study shows that endophytic bacterium CH-15 had antagonistic effect on ginseng root rot pathogens and inhibited the progression of ginseng root rot. We expected that this strain can be a microbial agent to suppress ginseng root rot.

인삼은 수천 년 동안 동아시아에서 재배된 중요한 약용 식물이다. 일반적으로 같은 포장에서 4-6년 동안 재배되기 때문에 다양한 병원균에 노출된다. 그 중 인삼뿌리썩음병이 가장 큰 피해를 주는 주요 원인이다. 본 연구에서는 건강한 인삼에서 내생균을 분리하고, 인삼뿌리썩음병원균에 대해 길항작용을 갖는 내생균을 선발하였다. 분리된 17개 균주 중, 3개 균주가 인삼뿌리썩음병원균에 길항작용을 나타냈으며 인삼뿌리썩음병균이 생산하는 곰팡이독소인 라디시콜에 내성을 보였다. 우수한 길항효과와 라디시콜 저항성을 갖는 Bacillus velezensis CH-15를 선발하여 추가 실험을 수행하였다. 인삼 뿌리에 CH-15를 접종하면 병원균의 균사 생장을 억제할 뿐만 아니라 질병의 진행도 억제하였다. CH-15는 또한 바실로마이신 D, 이투린 A, 바실리신, 서팩틴 생합성 유전자를 갖고 있었다. 또한 CH-15 배양여액은 병원균 생장과 분생포자 발아를 억제하였다. 본 연구는 내생균 CH-15가 인삼뿌리썩음병 병원체에 대해 길항작용을 하고 인삼뿌리썩음병의 진행을 억제함을 보여주었으며 이 균주가 인삼뿌리썩음병을 억제하는 미생물 제제가 될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.
