Antarctic Streptomyces: Promising Biocontrol Agents for Combating Fusarium Oxysporum F. Sp. Cubense

Abstract

Fusarium wilt of Banana (FWB) caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc) poses a significant threat to the banana industry, with current inadequate control measures. This study evaluated the antifungal potential of nine Streptomyces strains isolated from Antarctic soil samples, using Casein-Starch media to stimulate the production of antifungal compounds. The inhibition spectrum against Foc was assessed under laboratory conditions using the well diffusion on Mueller-Hinton agar, with antifungal activity measured in arbitrary units (AU/mL) and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) tested using ethyl acetate extracts. Among the nine isolates, K6 and E7 were closely related to Streptomyces polyrhachis and Streptomyces fildesensis, exhibited significant antifungal activity, with K6 and E7 showing 320 and 80 AU/mL, and MIC values of 250 and >500 ppm, respectively. These findings highlight K6 and E7 as potential biocontrol agents against Foc, offering new avenues for sustainable Fusarium wilt management in banana cultivation.
