Effect of Selenium-containing Biocomposites from Medicinal Mushrooms on the Potato Ring Rot Causative Agent

摘要

The impact of selenium biocomposites obtained from the medicinal macrobasidiomycetes Ganoderma lucidum, Grifola umbellata, Laetiporus sulphureus, Lentinula edodes , and Pleurotus ostreatus on the viability and biofilm formation capability of the phytopathogenic Gram-positive bacterium Clavibacter michiganensis ssp. sepedonicus (Spieck. et Kotth.) ( Cms ) was studied. Impairment of bacterial cell viability resulting from their incubation with biocomposites was shown. The decisive role of the composites’ selenium component on the biological activity under question was established. The dependence of antimicrobial effect of the selenium-containing specimen on the mushroom systematic position was revealed. The maximal activity was found for the biocomposites based on the extracellular metabolites of L. edodes and G. lucidum . When the biopolymer specimen of fungal origin was added to bacterial suspension, the Cms capability of forming biofilms was found to be distinctly dependent of the biocomposite type, and it was substantially reduced in a number of cases.
