Cover Story: Biocontrol agents are a green and effective measure for fighting crop fungal diseases like rice blast, which is a threat to global food security. The study by Ouyang et al. demonstrated that Bacillus stercoris JK-6, as an efficient biocontrol agent, exhibits broad-spectrum antifungal activity against Magnaporthe oryzae, Bipolaris maydis, and Fusarium graminearum, through producing secondary metabolite lipopeptide surfactins which restrain fungi by suppressing the expression of genes associated with membrane and oxygen transport. This study provides a practical biocontrol method for managing crop fungal diseases using B. stercoris and advances conceptual understanding of the molecular mechanism underlying the biocontrol ability of B. stercoris.
