AB  - The total diversity of bacterial and fungal communities associated with the phyllosphere (fruits and leaves) of the 'Williams' pear variety was analyzed in two phenological stages during fruit development and maturation. The antagonistic potential of autochthonous bacterial and yeast isolates against phytopathogenic fungi was also evaluated. A metabarcoding approach revealed Pantoea, Sphingomonas, Hymenobacter, Massilia, and Pseudomonas as dominant bacterial constituents of the pear phyllosphere, whilst most abundant among the fungal representatives identified were Metschnikowia, Filobasidium, Aureobasidium pullulans, Botrytis cinerea, and Taphrina. The traditional culturable approach revealed that the Pseudomonas genus with P. graminis, P. putida, and P. congelans was most prevalent. The most frequently cultivated fungal representatives belonged to the genus Fusarium with six identified species. A broad range of the antagonistic activity was detected for the Hannaella luteola and Metschnikowia pulcherrima yeasts, significantly affecting the growth of many fungal isolates in the range of 53-70%. Fusarium sporotrichioides was the most susceptible fungal isolate. The autochthonous antagonistic yeasts H. luteola and M. pulcherrima might be powerful biological control agents of postharvest diseases caused by Fusarium spp. and common pathogens like Monilinia laxa, Botrytis cinerea, Alternaria tenuissima, and Cladosporium cladosporioides.

AB  - Plant pathogenic bacterium Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc) was recently described as a pathogen of winter oilseed rape in Serbia. A metabarcoding approach was used to study bacterial community composition changes in the phyllosphere and rhizosphere of different winter oilseed rape types (lines, cultivars, and hybrids) naturally infected with Xcc. This study also aimed to examine the potential of indigenous Bacillus and Pseudomonas isolates to suppress Xcc. Infection with Xcc leads to depletion of bacterial diversity in the plants' phyllosphere and explicitly decreasing the abundance of genera such as Exiguobacterium, Massilia, and Pantoea with potentially beneficial properties. Strains identified as Bacillus velezensis X5-2, Bacillus megaterium X6-3, and Pseudomonas orientalis X2-1P obtained from oilseed rape phyllosphere were found to be effective against Xcc in vitro and in vivo when applied as a whole-culture and as a cell-free supernatant. The greenhouse in vivo tests on winter oilseed rape plants with three selected biocontrol strains lead to a disease reduction of 82.37% and 72.47% in preventive and curative treatments, respectively. Genetic screening showed potential for the biosynthesis of surfactin, kurstakin, bacillomycin D, and iturin in B. velezensis X5-2, as well as surfactin and kurstakin in B. megaterium X6-3. Gene phcA encoding phenazine-1-carboxylic acid was detected in P. orientalis X2-1P. The chemical composition of ethyl acetate and benzene extracts of three biocontrol strains obtained by GC-MS and HPLC-ESI-qTOF/MS analyses indicates numerous volatile organic compounds (alkenes, benzenes, carboxylic acids, indoles, pyrazines, etc.), lipopeptides, and/or antibiotics, for many of which antimicrobial potential is proven. We assume that this wide range of metabolites is responsible for the exhibited biocontrol activity against Xcc. These results recommend all three biocontrol strains for further studies for use as agents for biocontrol of bacterial blight-like disease caused by Xcc of oilseed rape.

AB  - The present study provides insight into the diversity of 147 Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc) isolates obtained from six Brassica oleracea vegetable crops (broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, collard greens, kale, kohlrabi) and the winter oilseed rape crop Brassica napus, collected from different regions in Serbia in 2014. The XCF/XCR pathovar-specific primer set was used for fast preliminary identification. In repetitive sequence-based PCR (BOX, ERIC and REP) of all isolates, a higher level of genetic diversity was found in winter oilseed rape isolates compared to isolates from the other hosts. ERIC and REP-PCR showed the highest heterogeneity, with 10 and nine banding patterns, respectively. The REP-PCR results showed the highest correlation (70%) with those obtained with multilocus sequence analysis (MLSA), performed with 10 housekeeping genes (fusA, gap-1, gltA, gyrB1, lacF, lepA, rpoD, dnaK, fyuA and gyrB2). Three distinct phylogenetic groups of winter oilseed rape isolates were detected using MLSA. Two genes, gltA and rpoD, showed the greatest ability to identify and discriminate winter oilseed rape Xcc isolates from isolates of the other six hosts. The lepA gene exhibited specific three-nucleotide changes in sequences of some of the isolates. Results of virulence testing of 18 representative isolates showed statistically significant host-pathogen specialization for Xcc isolates from winter oilseed rape, cauliflower, kale and kohlrabi. In conclusion, oilseed rape isolates are more genetically diverse and show greater specialization to their host in comparison to the rest of the tested isolates from other brassica hosts.
