Antagonistic Mechanism Analysis of Bacillus velezensis JLU-1, a Biocontrol Agent of Rice Pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae

, the causal agent of rice blast, is a fungal disease pathogen. Bacillus spp. have emerged as the most promising biological control agent alternative to chemical fungicides. In this study, the bacterial strain JLU-1 with significant antagonistic activity isolated from the rhizosphere soil of rice was identified as
