Dataset from the analyses of: i) biological activity of endophytic bacterium Priestia megaterium KW16 against Rhizoctonia solani, ii) effect of the pathogenic fungus filtrates on the expression of biocontrol-related genes, siderophore production and biofilm formation by KW16, iii) determination of the impact of KW16 on oilseed rape growth, fitness and protection against R. solani.

This dataset is related to the studies described in the article entitled "Novel Priestia megaterium KW16, a promising PGP and biocontrol agent against Rhizoctonia solani in oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) – practical approach and genetic potential" in the Agriculture journal (https://doi.org/10.3390/agriculture15131435). The data consist of the results collected for: i) studies on the antifungal activity of KW16 strain towards R. solani, ii) primer efficiency determination, iii) studies on the effect of the fungus phytopathogen filtrates on the expression levels of selected genes potentially involved in biocontrol activity of the KW16, iv) studies on the effect of KW16 inoculation on the oilseed rape plants ) growth and fitness parameters. The complete genome sequences of the Priestia megaterium KW16 strain have been deposited in the NCBI under the BioProject number JAHTKR000000000.1.本数据集关联发表于《Agriculture》期刊、题为《新型巨大普里斯特杆菌（Priestia megaterium）KW16：一种极具潜力的植物促生（PGP，Plant Growth Promoting）与生防功能菌株，可防控油菜（Brassica napus L.）中的立枯丝核菌（Rhizoctonia solani）——实践方法与遗传潜力》的研究论文，其DOI链接为https://doi.org/10.3390/agriculture15131435。本数据集包含以下四类研究的所得结果：i) KW16菌株对立枯丝核菌的抗真菌活性研究结果；ii) 引物效率测定结果；iii) 植物病原真菌滤液对KW16潜在生防相关候选基因表达水平影响的研究结果；iv) KW16接种对油菜植株生长及健康参数影响的研究结果。巨大普里斯特杆菌KW16菌株的全基因组序列已提交至美国国家生物技术信息中心（NCBI），对应的BioProject编号为JAHTKR000000000.1。
