dc.description.abstractMany plant protection agents traditionally used to combat fire blight are subjected to restrictions in an increasing number of countries. The emergence of streptomycin-resistant bacteria has called for antibiotic-free alternatives, while the use of aluminum- and copper-based products has raised environmental concerns. In this scope, there is a high demand for alternative products with lower risk profiles, for example antagonistic bacteria, yeasts, or bacteriophages (phages). Phages are considered safe for both the environment and human health, and they are highly specific for their target bacterium. Some phage-based agents have already been approved for use in plant protection and food safety. However, diverse environmental factors can impair the phages’ stability. UV-light, for example, which is damaging to DNA, can inactivate phages in the field. In the European Horizon 2020 project PhageFire, the goal of all involved partners is to develop such a phage-based biopesticide against fire blight. Here, we tested different UV-B absorbing substances and surfactants to develop an effective formulation to protect the bacteriophages from UV-B light and to ensure an even foliage coverage and adherence of the phages to the plant surface. Under artificial UV-B illumination, the phages’ survival could be increased by the addition of UV-B absorbents. We could also show that many commercially available surfactants are compatible with phages and do not affect their stability. With these contributions, complemented by phage characterization, field trials, and regulatory aspects, we aim to develop an effective and safe biopesticide against fire blight.de_CH
