Background: The bacterial wilt of tomatoes, caused by Ralstonia solanacearum, is a soil-borne plant disease that causes substantial agricultural economic losses. Various nanoparticles have been utilized as antibacterial agents to mitigate pathogenic destructiveness and improve crop yields. However, there is a lack of in-depth research on how nanoparticles affect tomato metabolite levels to regulate the bacterial wilt of tomatoes. Methods: In this study, healthy and bacterial wilt-infected tomatoes were treated with Cu-Ag nanoparticles, and a metabolomics analysis was carried out. Results: The results showed that Cu-Ag nanoparticles had a significant prevention and control effect on the bacterial wilt of tomatoes. Metabolomic analysis revealed that the nanoparticles could significantly up-regulate the expression levels of terpenol lipids, organic acids, and organic oxygen compounds in diseased tomatoes, and enhance key metabolic pathways such as amino acid metabolism, carbohydrate metabolism, secondary metabolite metabolism, and lipid metabolism. These identified metabolites and pathways could regulate plant growth and defense against pathogens. Correlation analysis between the tomato microbiome and metabolites showed that most endophytic microorganisms and rhizospheric bacteria were positively correlated with fatty acyls groups and organic oxygen compounds. Conclusions: This study reveals that Cu-Ag nanoparticles can actively regulate the bacterial wilt of tomatoes by up-regulating the levels of lipid metabolism and organic oxygen compounds, providing an important theoretical basis for the application of nanoparticles in agriculture.

Bacterial leaf blight (BLB) is a destructive disease caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo). It has been proven that BLB adversely influences the growth and production of rice, resulting in substantial losses in yield. Nanoparticle–antimicrobial compounds possess excellent physicochemical properties, which have generated groundbreaking applications in protecting rice against BLB attacks. However, there is less research focused on the interaction between nanoparticles and the microbiome of BLB rice leaves, particularly the structure and function of endophytic bacteria, which are essential to plant health and pathogenesis. Therefore, the study explored how Cu-Ag nanoparticles influenced the endophytic bacteria’s composition and functions in healthy and BLB rice leaves. The data demonstrated that the relative abundance of beneficial bacteria, Burkholderiales, Micrococcales, and Rhizobiales, increased after the introduction of Cu-Ag nanoparticles on the leaves of BLB rice. The examination of PAL activity demonstrated that nanoparticles limited the spread of Xoo in rice leaves. Furthermore, endophytic community functional prediction demonstrated that nanoparticles may regulate the physiological process associated with potential stress resistance and growth-promoting function in the endophytic communities. This investigation may enhance the understanding of interactions between nanoparticles and the composition of rice endophytic microbiome, which can contribute to the exploration and application of nanomaterials in crop pathogen management.
