Abstract

In the present study, several strains of antagonist actinomyces obtained from soils of agricultural fields in Pathum-Thani and Nakhon-Nayok province were screened for antagonistic activity against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) Pyricularia oryzae and Sclerotium sp., the causative agents of bacterial blight disease, blast disease and stem rot disease of rice, respectively. The isolates were identified as genus Streptomyces based on colony morphology, scanning electron microscope and 16S rRNA gene analysis. Nine Streptomyces isolates produced potential antibacterial or antifungal compounds on screening agars. Among of them, Streptomyces hygroscopicus strain SWU-TH39 showed the highest inhibition zone against both Xoo and rice pathogenic fungi such as Pyricularia oryzae and Sclerotium sp. This strain also produced plant growth promoting compounds including indole-acetic acid (IAA) and siderophores. The antimicrobial compounds produced by strain SWU-TH39 was obtained in modified-antibiotic production medium and extracted by solvent extraction method. n[a1] -Butanol was the best extraction solvent for the recovery of the antimicrobial compounds for inhibition against both Xoo and tested fungal phytopathogen. Furthermore, SWU-TH39 was adapted to the development of starter culture in powder formulation and, remarkably, this was successful as a carrier to maintain bacterial survival with 8x108 CFU/g after 6-month storage at room temperature. Viable cells in the starter retained not only antagonistic potential against rice pathogens, but also capabilities of the production of plant growth promoting substances. Keywords :  antagonist actinomyces, rice pathogens, antimicrobial, starter culture powder
