SEM images of tobacco stalks before and after treatment with strain LXX12. Left: The untreated tobacco stalk shows a smooth surface with a tightly structured and organized morphology. Right: After treatment with LXX12, the tobacco stalk surface displays significant structural changes, including loosened fibers, surface damage, collapse, and the formation of multiple pores and cracks, resulting in a more disordered and porous structure.
