    To obtain endophytic antagonists efficiently inhibiting asparagus stem blight (Phomopsis asparagi),52 strains of endophytic bacteria were isolated from the roots of wild asparagus collected in Miyun District of Beijing and were tested for their bio‑control activity against Phomopsis asparagi using the dual culture method and greenhouse experiments. The results showed that three strains of endophytic bacteria with good inhibitory effects were obtained,and the inhibition rates were 63.70%—85.00%.Among them the strain YS‑G10 displayed the highest antagonistic activity and the inhibition rate against Phomopsis asparagi was up to 85.00%.The strain YS‑G10 could also effectively inhibit asparagus stem blight in the greenhouse experiment and the control effect was 73.44%.Biocontrol‑related character assays showed that the strain was capable of producing protease and cellulase,suggesting that the strain YS‑G10 may control asparagus stem blight by secreting hydrolysis enzymes such as protease and cellulase to destory the cell wall of pathogenic fungi or inhibit the production of pathogenic toxins.By using morphological,physiological,biochemical tests and phylogenetic tree analysis based on 16S rDNA and gyrB sequences,the strain YS‑G10 was identified as Bacillus velezensis.

    In order to screen the excellent endophytic fungi with better biocontrol effects on the pathogen of Schisandra chinensis brown spot disease, Phoma glomerate(corad)Wollena ex Hoehapf,the conventional culture method in plant pathology was used to culture Phoma glomerate(corad)Wollena ex Hoehapf and observe its colony characteristics and micromorphology,at the same time,the plate antagonistic method was applied to screen the endophytic biocontrol fungi. By measuring the change of cell membrane permeability,soluble protein content,ergosterol content,and chitin content of Phoma glomerate(corad)Wollena ex Hoehapf,the bactericidal mechanism of WG9 fermentation liquid was preliminarily explored. Morphological observation,fungal ITS gene sequencing,and the construction of phylogenetic tree were combined to identify the screened excellent endophytic biocontrol fungi.The results showed that one strain of biocontrol fungi WG9 screened from the endophytic fungi of Schisandra chinensis had better biocontrol effect. The plate antagonistic experiment indicated that its antagonistic rate reached 64. 73% and the antagonistic rate of fermentation liquid was 48. 21%. With the increase of the concentration of the WG9 fermentation broth,the cell membrane permeability and soluble protein content of the pathogenic fungi hyphae increased,while the ergosterol content and chitin content decreased. Morphological observation and molecular biology identified the excellent endophytic fungus as Purpureocillium lilacinum. The present study showed that the endophytic biocontrol fungus WG9 screened from the rhizome of Schisandra chinensis had a good bactericidal effect on Phoma glomerate(corad)Wollena ex Hoehapf,and the WG9 fermentation broth had a certain damage effect on the cell wall of pathogenic fungi.
