    Diseases caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum have caused severe losses of many economically important crops worldwide. Due to the long-term persistence of sclerotia in soil and the production of air-borne ascospores, synthetic fungicides play limited roles in controlling the diseases. The application of antagonistic microorganisms can effectively reduce the number of sclerotia and eventually eradicate S. sclerotiorum from soil, and therefore considerable interest has been focused on biological control. Streptomyces sp. NEAU-S7GS2 was isolated from the root of Glycine max and its rhizosphere soil. It showed significant inhibitory activity against the mycelial growth of S. sclerotiorum (99.1%) and completely inhibited sclerotia germination. Compared to the control, in the pot experiment the application of NEAU-S7GS2 not only demonstrated excellent potential to control sclerotinia stem rot of soybean with 77 and 38% decrease in disease incidence and disease index, respectively, but could promote the growth of soybean. The light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy showed that co-culture of NEAU-S7GS2 with S. sclerotiorum on potato dextrose agar could lead to contorted and fragmented mycelia of S. sclerotiorum, which was associated with the secretion of hydrolytic glucanase and cellulase and the production of active secondary metabolites by NEAU-S7GS2. The plant growth promoting activity of NEAU-S7GS2 was related to the solubilization of inorganic phosphate, and production of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) deaminase and indole acetic acid (IAA). To further explore the plant growth promoting and antifungal mechanisms, the complete genome of strain NEAU-S7GS2 was sequenced. Several genes associated with ammonia assimilation, phosphate solubilization and IAA synthesis, together with genes encoding ACC deaminase, glucanase and α-amylase, were identified. AntiSMASH analysis led to the identification of four gene clusters responsible for the biosynthesis of siderophores including desferrioxamine B and enterobactin. Moreover, the biosynthetic gene clusters of lydicamycins, phenazines, and a glycosylated polyol macrolide showing 88% gene similarity to PM100117/PM100118 were identified. These results suggested that strain NEAU-S7GS2 may be a potential biocontrol agent and biofertilizer used in agriculture.</p

    Boron-Based Polyphosphazene-Functionalized Mxene Nanosheets for Polypropylene Composites with Improved Mechanical Properties and Flame Retardancy Applications

    Developing high-performance resins with exceptional thermal oxidation stability, flame retardancy, smoke release suppression, and mechanical properties is an important industrial challenge. However, current flame-retardant design strategies often compromise other composite material properties. Especially when using polyolefin, unsaturated polyester, and other noncharred materials, it is usually necessary to add large amounts of flame-retardant fillers. In this study, a nanosynergist (Ti3C2Tx@PPD) for functionalizing Ti3C2Tx nanosheets with boron-based polyphosphazene was designed and adopted for a piperazine pyrophosphate/polypropylene (PAPP/PP) system as an application example. By controlling the chemical environment of cyclotriphosphazene, the condensed phase characteristics of polyphosphazene were preserved, but also an atypical vapor phase flame-retardant mechanism was activated. The combination of P/N/B elements and Ti3C2Tx exhibited excellent catalytic char-forming performance compared to others in the literature. Only 2% of incorporated Ti3C2Tx@PPD reduced the total heat released from the composite by 66.3%, the total smoke released by 71.8%, and the fire growth index by 49.4%. The incorporation of Ti3C2Tx@PPD inhibited deterioration of the mechanical properties of the composite. In addition, the pyrolysis path of Ti3C2Tx was revealed under a special environment. This study lays the foundation for the functional design of Ti3C2Tx nanomaterials that can be used in various applications that require high-performance resins
