Skeletonema costatum is a diatom widely distributed in red tide microalgae blooms and as one of the main algae causing harmful algal blooms, because of their rapid reproduction and production of toxic and harmful substances, often play a negative role in aquatic ecosystems, and human health and wellbeing. Bacillomycin D is a nonribosomal cyclic antifungal lipopeptide in the iturins family. In this study, Bacillomycin D was tested for its ability to inhibit the growth of S. costatum. The EC50 24h of Bacillomycin D on S. costatum was 24.70 μg/mL. The chlorophyll fluorescence parameters Fv/Fm, Fv/Fo, and yield of the diatoms decreased significantly with increasing concentrations of Bacillomycin D. Study of the mechanism showed that Bacillomycin D induced cell death by changing cell membrane permeability, promoting the release of cellular contents. In this study, transcriptomic analysis showed Bacillomycin D significantly inhibited the photosynthesis and metabolism of S. costatum. These findings investigated the inhibitory effect of Bacillomycin D on the growth of S. costatum and provided a theoretical foundation for the development of new environmentally friendly biological algicide.
