Phenazine-1-carboxamide (PCN) is effective to control many plant pathogens, and improving PCN production would be of great significance in promoting its development as a biopesticide. This study was conducted to improve the PCN production of Pseudomonas chlororaphis H5△fleQ△relA through fermentation optimization in both shake flask and bioreactor. The PCN production of H5△fleQ△relA was improved from 2.75 ± 0.23 g/L to 5.51 ± 0.17 g/L by medium optimization in shake flask using Plackett-Burman design, the path of steepest ascent experiment and central composite design. Then, PCN production reached 8.58 ± 0.25 g/L through optimizing pH in 1 L bioreactor. After pH optimization, the transcriptional levels of ccoO_2 and ccoQ_2 genes related to microbial aerobic respiration were significantly upregulated, and the relative abundance of 3-oxo-C14-HSL was significantly enhanced 15-fold, and these changes were vital for cell activity and metabolites production. Furthermore, the PCN production reached 9.58 ± 0.57 g/L after optimization of the fed-batch fermentation strategy in 1 L bioreactor. Finally, the fermentation scale-up of the optimal medium and optimal feeding strategy were conducted in 30 L bioreactor at the optimal pH, and their PCN production reached 9.17 g/L and 9.62 g/L respectively, which were comparable to that in 1 L bioreactor. In this study, the high PCN production was achieved from the shake-flask fermentation to 30 L bioreactor, and the optimal feeding strategy improved PCN production in bioreactor without increasing total glycerol compared with in shake flask. It provides promising pathways for the optimization of processes for the production of other phenazines.
