Multi-omics analysis of Bacillus-associated suppression of Bursaphelenchus xylophilus disease symptoms and candidate defense responses in Pinus thunbergii
Data support B223 as a promising biocontrol candidate against PWD as a cautious working model in which B223-associated symptom suppression may involve coordinated hormone-related transcriptional responses, MAPK signaling, and downstream phenylpropanoid/flavonoid metabolism.
