Abstract: Bacillus velezensis FX1 was isolated and screened from the natural enzyme fermentation broth of fruits and vegetables in the pear production area of Kulle, Xinjiang, as a strain with strong antagonistic effect on the Erwinia amylovora. In order to improve the bacterial inhibitory activity and disease control effect, the medium components (carbon source, nitrogen source, inorganic salt) and shake flask fermentation conditions (temperature, rotation speed and initial pH) were screened and optimized by single-factor test, Plackett-Burman test and response surface method. The results showed that the optimal medium for FX1 was corn starch 10.0 g/L, yeast paste 25.1 g/L, KH2PO4 0.5 g/L, MnSO4 0.001 g/L. The optimal fermentation conditions were initial pH 7.0, rotation speed 150 r/min, temperature 30.9 ℃, loading volume 100 mL/500 mL, and cultivation time 48 h. After optimization, the viable bacterial count of FX1 strain could reach 1.53×109 CFU/mL and the diameter of inhibition circle could reach 26.6 mm, which increased 3.10 times and 1.32 times, respectively. Spraying of FX1 fermentation solution, sterile fermentation filtrate and crude extract of lipopeptides could significantly reduce the flower rot rate (P<0.05), and the protective efficacy against fire blight could reach 68.53%, 71.47% and 76.30%, respectively, which were higher than that before optimization. The above results provide a basis for the development of Bacillus Bellais FX1 bacterial agent and its application in biological control of fire blight.
