Abstract

Plants face numerous challenges in their ongoing battle against pests and diseases. Traditional protection methods often involve synthetic pesticides, which have a detrimental impact on the environment and human health. However, the quest for eco-friendly and sustainable solutions has brought surfactin into the spotlight as a promising defender of plants. Surfactin, a biometabolite produced by Bacillus spp., has gained attention due to its multifaceted properties contributing to plant defense. This review highlights the eco-friendly nature of surfactin and explores its notable functions as an antimicrobial agent, the ability to modulate plant defense mechanisms, enhance colonization and biofilm formation of antagonists, and ultimately promote plant growth. Furthermore, the environmentally friendly characteristics of surfactin, such as its biodegradability and low toxicity, make it an ideal candidate for sustainable plant protection strategies. The potential applications and challenges in utilizing surfactin as an eco-friendly defender of plants are discussed, providing insights for future research and the development of innovative and sustainable agricultural practices.

表面活性素作为可持续植物防御的多方面生物代谢产物：综述

植物在与病虫害的持续斗争中面临着诸多挑战。传统的保护方法通常使用合成杀虫剂，对环境和人类健康造成有害影响。然而，随着人们对生态友好型可持续解决方案的追求，表面活性素作为一种前景广阔的植物保护剂成为人们关注的焦点。表面活性剂是由芽孢杆菌属产生的一种生物代谢产物，因其有助于植物防御的多方面特性而备受关注。本综述强调了表面活性素的环保特性，并探讨了它作为抗菌剂的显著功能、调节植物防御机制的能力、增强拮抗剂的定殖和生物膜形成的能力，以及最终促进植物生长的能力。此外，表面活性剂的生物降解性和低毒性等环境友好特性使其成为可持续植物保护战略的理想候选物质。本文讨论了利用表面活性素作为植物生态友好防御剂的潜在应用和挑战，为未来的研究和创新及可持续农业实践的发展提供了启示。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Plant Pathology (JPP or JPPY) is the main publication of the Italian Society of Plant Pathology (SiPAV), and publishes original contributions in the form of full-length papers, short communications, disease notes, and review articles on mycology, bacteriology, virology, phytoplasmatology, physiological plant pathology, plant-pathogeninteractions, post-harvest diseases, non-infectious diseases, and plant protection. In vivo results are required for plant protection submissions. Varietal trials for disease resistance and gene mapping are not published in the journal unless such findings are already employed in the context of strategic approaches for disease management. However, studies identifying actual genes involved in virulence are pertinent to thescope of the Journal and may be submitted. The journal highlights particularly timely or novel contributions in its Editors’ choice section, to appear at the beginning of each volume. Surveys for diseases or pathogens should be submitted as "Short communications".
