Fungi of the genus Fusarium are economically significant pathogens in most wheat-growing regions worldwide. The biocontrol agents Bacillus velezensis BZR 336 g and BZR 517 were tested for growth inhibition of F. graminearum BZR 4. The results demonstrated that the strains are capable of deforming and destroying hyphae. The modified bioautography technique showed that the strains produce iturin A and surfactin, which probably explains the mechanism of pathogen inhibition. Furthermore, lipopeptides were detected and identified in two samples by the HPLC-HRMS. Compounds such as surfactin and their isomers and homologues were found in both samples. An experiment on an artificial infectious background in a climatic chamber established that the biological effectiveness of strains is close to that of chemical and biological references. Cultivation of plants with B. velezensis showed that the strains are likely to reduce the stress load. An efficacy of up to 45.0% was determined for bioagents BZR 336 g and BZR 517 in field trials, while the yield was up to 7.9 t/ha. The use of B. velezensis BZR 336 g and BZR 517 as biocontrol agents provides an environmentally friendly approach to the control of Fusarium rots on wheat, reduction of the pesticide load, and hence quality harvest.
