Bacillus subtilis CtpxS2-1 induces systemic resistance against anthracnose in Andean lupin by lipopeptide production.

B. subtilis CtpxS2-1 is a key factor enhancing Andean lupin health by producing lipopeptides that damage C. acutatum cellular structures and inhibit their growth, as well as by inducing the expression of defence-related genes of lupin plants involved in systemic acquired resistance (SAR) against anthracnose.
