	Ecofriendly biocontrol agents to control pathogenic fungi are in demand globally. The present study evaluated the antifungal potentials of marine bacteria Serratia marcescens BKACT against eight different Fusarium species. A highest 75.5 +/- 0.80\% of mycelial inhibition was observed against Fusarium foetens NCIM 1330. Structural characterization of the purified compound was analyzed by GC-MS and NMR techniques; based on the analysis, it is confirmed as 2, 4-di-tert butyl phenol (2, 4-DTBP) with chemical structure C14H22O. At 0.53 mM concentration, purified compound inhibited complete spore germination of F. foetens NCIM 1330. In vitro assay showed complete inhibition of F. foetens NCIM 1330 on the wheat seeds. Tested concentration does not show any toxic effect on germination of the seeds. By this study, we conclude that, 2, 4-DTBP is a suitable candidate to be used as biocontrol agent against Fusarium infection.</p>

	In the present study, a cost-effective, robust Microbioreactor based production optimization of levan like exopolysaccharide from marine Bacillus sp. SGD-03 was analysed. FE-SEM analysis has showed the significant fibrillar structure of EPS. Size exclusion chromatography and other analytical data revealed that, produced EPS has a molecular weight of 1.0 x 10(4) Da and is composed of fructose monosaccharide with hydroxyl, carbonyl, and ether groups. The backbone structure of EPS has a branching pattern of beta-(2,6) linkages which confirms the similarity with available levan like polymers. The cost-effective media composition for levan production was demonstrated. The maximum yield of crude levan obtained was 123.9 g/L by response surface methodology using robust BioLector Pro Microbioreactor, and same has been validated with shake flask, 1 L and 10 L pilot-scale fermentation.</p>
