B. velezensis F21 served as a potential biocontrol agent for control of Fusarium wilt disease in watermelon. B. velezensis F21 can significantly control watermelon Fusarium wilt disease. (A) Antagonistic effect of biocontrol bacteria on various pathogenic fungi, such as Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. niveum, Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense, Fusarium graminearum, Mycosphaerella melonis, and Botrytis cinerea. (B) Effect of B. velezensis F21 on spore germination were observed by microscope, the bars equal 5 μm. (C) Biological control effect of B. velezensis F21 to Fusarium wilt disease on watermelon in the field. (D) The symptoms of Fusarium wilt disease development on watermelon seedlings 30 days post Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. niveum inoculation in each treatment in greenhouse experiment.
