(1) Background: Rotavirus (RV) is the primary pathogen causing diarrhea in infants and young children. The G9-type is an emerging genotype; however, its isolation is challenging, and its immunogenicity to piglets is poorly understood. This study aimed to isolate, characterize, and evaluate the immunogenicity of a PoRVA strain, RHeN2, obtained from the diarrhea samples of piglets from a pig farm in Henan Province, China. (2) Methods: Porcine rotavirus A (PoRVA) was isolated from diarrheal samples of piglets on a farm in Henan Province, China, through sequential passaging on MA-104 cells. Its immunogenicity and cross-neutralization potential were evaluated. Inactivated vaccines were prepared using two agents (formaldehyde and binary ethyleneimine, BEI) and administered intramuscularly to 28-day-old piglets. Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) served as the control. (3) Results: A PoRVA strain, G9P[23] type, was successfully isolated and named RHeN2. Full-genome Sanger sequencing revealed the genetic constellation of this strain as G9-P[23]-I5-R1-C1- M1-A8-N1-T1-E1-H1. In addition, the titers of neutralizing antibodies peaked at 45 days post-vaccination, and the immunogenicity of the BEI-inactivated group of vaccines was better than that of the formaldehyde-inactivated group. The RHeN2 (G9P[23]) strain demonstrated a strong cross-neutralization ability against the same G9P[23] and G4P[23] strains and a stronger cross-neutralizing ability against the P[23] strains than against the P[7] strains. (4) Conclusion: The newly isolated G9P[23] strain demonstrates favorable immunogenicity, holding potential as a G9-type vaccine candidate.

Corn stalk rot, caused by Fusarium graminearum, severely threatens corn production, while chemical fungicides lead to resistance and environmental risks. Thus, exploring environmentally friendly biocontrol agents is crucial. Though Bacillus polyketones have antifungal activity, their active components, corn stalk rot biocontrol potential and rhizosphere impacts remain unclear. This study isolated polyketones from Bacillus velezensis DJ1, assessed their antifungal activity and mechanism against F. graminearum, verified greenhouse efficacy, analyzed rhizosphere microbiota, and identified active components via HPLC-HDMS Q-TOF. The results showed that DJ1 polyketones showed dose-dependent inhibition by disrupting F. graminearum’s mycelium and membrane, with 44.33% greenhouse control efficacy. They did not disturb rhizosphere balance, only increasing Bacteroidota and DYGX01, and the active components were difficidin and bacillaene. These findings confirm DJ1 polyketones as promising eco-friendly biocontrol agents, providing a new strategy for sustainable corn stalk rot management.
