Abstract:[Background] Red rot disease, caused by Pythium chondricola/porphyrae, is a major disease occurring in the cultivation of Neopyropia yezoensis, whereas the current control methods have limited control effects on this disease. [Objective] To extract the extracellular products of Pseudoalteromonas piscicida P3, investigate the mechanism of inhibiting P. porphyrae, and evaluate the control effect of the extracellular products on red rot disease. [Methods] Organic solvents were used to extract antimicrobial components from the cell-free supernatant (CFS). The disc diffusion method and dual culture bioassays were employed to evaluate the inhibitory effect of the extract on P. porphyrae. We then evaluated the control effect of the extract on red rot disease by adding it before and after P. porphyrae infection. The differences in gene expression of P. porphyrae after treatment were analyzed at the transcriptional level. [Results] The ethyl acetate extract of P3 exhibited the strongest inhibitory effect on P. porphyrae. The treatment with the extract resulted in decreased biomass, curved and thinned cell walls, loss of cellular contents, and oogonium appearance of P. porphyrae. The extract added at a final concentration of 15 mg/L before and after P. porphyrae infection demonstrated the inhibition rates of 96.64% and 85.06%, respectively. Transcriptome analysis revealed downregulation of the genes in pathways related to the cytoplasm, membrane, and phosphatidylinositol. [Conclusion] The extracellular products of P3 have a significant inhibitory effect on P. porphyrae and effectively control red rot disease in N. yezoensis. The findings provide support for the development of new control techniques and agents for red rot disease.
