RESUMO
The globally widespread genus Sulfurimonas are playing important roles in different habitats, including the deep-sea hydrothermal vents. However, phages infecting Sulfurimonas have never been isolated and characterized to date. In the present study, a novel prophage SNW-1 was identified from Sulfurimonas indica NW79. Whole genome sequencing resulted in a circular, double-stranded DNA molecule of 37,096 bp with a mol% G+C content of 37. The genome includes 64 putative open reading frames, 33 of which code for proteins with predicted functions. Presence of hallmark genes associated with Caudoviricetes and genes involved in lysis and lysogeny indicated that SNW-1 should be a temperate, tailed phage. Phylogenetic and comparative proteomic analyses suggested that Sulfurimonas phage SNW-1 was distinct from other double stranded DNA phages and might represent a new viral genus.
RESUMO
The endophytic fungus strain 0248, isolated from garlic, was identified as Trichoderma brevicompactum based on morphological characteristics and the nucleotide sequences of ITS1-5.8S- ITS2 and tef1. The bioactive compound T2 was isolated from the culture extracts of this fungus by bioactivity-guided fractionation and identified as 4ß-acetoxy-12,13- epoxy-Δ(9)-trichothecene (trichodermin) by spectral analysis and mass spectrometry. Trichodermin has a marked inhibitory activity on Rhizoctonia solani, with an EC50 of 0.25 µg mL(-1). Strong inhibition by trichodermin was also found for Botrytis cinerea, with an EC50 of 2.02 µg mL(-1). However, a relatively poor inhibitory effect was observed for trichodermin against Colletotrichum lindemuthianum (EC50 = 25.60 µg mL(-1)). Compared with the positive control Carbendazim, trichodermin showed a strong antifungal activity on the above phytopathogens. There is little known about endophytes from garlic. This paper studied in detail the identification of endophytic T. brevicompactum from garlic and the characterization of its active metabolite trichodermin.
