Dihydrojasmone from antifungal bacterial endophytes as a biocontrol agent against leaf spot pathogens threatening the endangered Tertiary relict plant Parrotia subaequalis
This study provides the first identification of fungal pathogens responsible for leaf spot disease in <i>P. subaequalis</i>. The strong antifungal activities of endophytic Bacillus species and their metabolites were demonstrated, highlighting their promise as eco-friendly biocontrol agents.
