Metabolite from supernatant of soil and plant-associated bacteria control biofilm of fish pathogens

Eight supernatants from soil and plant-associated bacteria were found to have quorum quenching activity against Chromobacterium violaceum. All supernatants exhibited antibiofilm activity against biofilm formed by Aeromonas hydrophila and Vibrio harveyi. The supernatant of FT5 showed the highest activity in disrupting (66.59%) and inhibiting (85.63%) the biofilm of A. hydrophila. For V. harveyi, the supernatant of PTM3 showed the highest disruption activity (72.61%), whileRCA7 showed the highest inhibition activity(75.68%). The Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) identified fatty acids, ester, and diketopiperazine as the compounds related to the antibiofilm activity. Molecular identification revealed that the isolates belong to the genera Bacillus, Priestia, and Chryseobacterium.
