Grapevine downy mildew (Plasmopara viticola) is a devastating disease of grapevine. In this study, 151 actinomycete isolates were obtained and tested for antagonistic activity against P. viticola . The assay suggested that 28 isolates displayed antagonistic effects to varying degrees. The greatest reduction in disease severity was observed with isolate PY-1, which reduced disease severity by 92.13% in the detached leaf assay, and by 83% in a field assay. It was identified as Streptomyces atratus using the 16S rDNA sequence analysis. To elucidate the antagonistic mechanism of PY-1 against P. viticola , scanning electron microscopy showed that major damage to the pathogens sporangia and sporangiophores was observed after treatment for PY-1. Furthermore, PY-1 showed antagonistic activity against other pathogens, including: Botrytis cinerea , Colletotrichum orbiculare , Fusarium oxysporum , Phytophthora capsici and Phytophthora infestans . Two imide compounds were purified from the fermentation liquid using silica gel chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography and identified as 5-acetoxycycloheximide and cycloheximide using nuclear magnetic resonance. Both compounds showed significant antagonistic activity against P. viticola , determining a reduction in disease severity by 65% and 84%, respectively. In conclusion, 5-acetoxycycloheximide and cycloheximide were identified for the first time in a new S. atratus strain able to effectively control grapevine downy mildew.
