摘要: A microbial fungicide developed from Bacillus subtilis NCD-2 has been registered for suppressing verticillium wilt in crops in China. Spores are the main ingredient of this fungicide and play a crucial role in suppressing plant disease. Therefore, increasing the number of spores of strain NCD-2 during fermentation is important for reducing the cost of the fungicide. In this study, five kinds of carbon sources were found to promote the metabolism of strain NCD-2 revealed via Biolog Phenotype MicroArray (PM) technology. L-arabinose showed the strongest ability to promote the growth and sporulation of strain NCD-2. L-arabinose increased the bacterial concentration and the sporulation efficiency of strain NCD-2 by 2.04 times and 1.99 times compared with D-glucose, respectively. Moreover, L-arabinose significantly decreased the autolysis of strain NCD-2. Genes associated with arabinose metabolism, sporulation, spore resistance to heat, and spore coat formation were significantly up-regulated, and genes associated with sporulation-delaying protein were significantly down-regulated under L-arabinose treatment. The deletion of msmX, which is involved in arabinose transport in the Bacillus genus, decreased growth and sporulation by 53.71% and 86.46% compared with wild-type strain NCD-2, respectively. Complementing the mutant strain by importing an intact msmX gene restored the strain's growth and sporulation.
