根瘤菌与大豆在不同类型土壤中的生态适应性研究

结合黑龙江省大豆主产区的主要土壤类型和大豆主栽品种,采用盆栽试验分别在黑土和草甸土中对大豆品种V1和V4接种根瘤菌株R2、R5和R7,筛选与之相匹配的根瘤菌株,得到根瘤菌株、大豆品种和土壤类型三者最佳组合R2V1S1、R2V4S1、R2V1S2、R2V4S2,为获得优良大豆根瘤菌接种剂菌种提供理论基础;种植大豆可以增强土壤肥力.大豆收获后对两种土壤进行基础肥力测定得出:黑土和草甸土中有机质的含量分别较播种前增加了7.28%和10.15%,碱解氮含量较播种前增加17.44%和16.29%.     

土壤中大豆根瘤菌优势类群以及与寄主共生关系的多样性

我国大豆种植区使用人工选育制成的根瘤菌剂接种效果不稳定。研究指出南方、北方和黄淮流域的6个省土壤中分布的主要Bradrhizobium.japonicum是DH444、USDA110、LL120、005和C224血清型的菌株,主要的Rhizobium.fredii是2048、USDA217、DE1611、2120和2077血清型的菌株。它们占每个取样地点分离物总数的60.3-81.6％。植物感染结瘤法测得大豆种植地点土著根瘤菌菌数在104/克土以上。盆栽试验表明大豆根瘤菌与大豆品种共生时有较强的亲和选择性和共生效应的多样性,其有效结瘤和固氮效率与根瘤菌个体菌株和大豆品种极相关。大多数土著大豆根瘤菌是低或中效固氮的菌株,因而认为选育抗土著根瘤菌而有利于人工接种菌株结瘤的大豆品种和强竞争性的高效菌株仍是提高我国大豆生产的有效途径。     

不同茬口土壤和大豆品种对根瘤菌遗传多样性的影响

土壤和大豆品种是影响根瘤菌遗传多样性的主要因素。本研究通过土壤捕捉试验,分别从冬小麦茬口和玉米茬口土壤中种植的4个大豆品种根瘤中分离得到149株快生根瘤菌和49株慢生根瘤菌。对这些菌株进行16S rDNA限制性酶切分析(ARDRA)、16S-23S基因间隔(IGS)以及共生基因(nod C)的限制性片段长度多态性分析(RFLP),考察土壤茬口和大豆品种对大豆根瘤菌遗传多样性的影响。ARDRA分析结果表明,快生根瘤菌全部属于中华根瘤菌属(Sinorhizobium),慢生根瘤菌全部属于慢生根瘤菌属(Bradyrhizobium)。IGS酶切分型将所有菌株分为3种图谱类型,其中型Ⅰ与辽宁慢生根瘤菌(B.liaoningense)的模式菌株酶切图谱类型完全一致,型Ⅱ和型Ⅲ与费氏中华根瘤菌(S.fredii)的模式菌株酶切图谱类型完全一致。综合以上结果,本研究分离到的菌株分属于以上2个种。在两种茬口土壤中快生根瘤菌费氏中华根瘤菌均为优势种群,在冬小麦茬口土壤中的比例(平均95.18%)远高于玉米茬口土壤(平均53.78%)。‘冀豆12’大豆品种的费氏中华根瘤菌在两种茬口土壤中所占比重均高于其他品种。对菌株的IGS基因型与宿主大豆品种的相关性分析表明,大豆品种与根瘤菌IGS基因型之间具有一定相关性。nod C-RFLP酶切分型结果表明,土壤茬口和大豆品种对菌株的共生基因无明显影响。本研究表明根瘤菌、土壤茬口和大豆品种间存在一定的相关性。土壤茬口对根瘤菌的种群结构影响较大,大豆品种对根瘤菌的基因型具有一定的选择性。

白三叶草/根瘤菌共生固氮潜力及干旱限制因素

为了探讨白三叶草生物固氮与土壤水分供应和菌种基因型的关系,采用温室盆栽试验方法,对9个基因型的三叶草根瘤菌固氮效率和与土壤含水量的关系进行了研究。结果发现,根瘤菌接种后,白三叶草叶片含氮量明显增加,有3个基因型的根瘤菌接种植株后叶片氮含量达到对照的3倍以上,据此可根据根瘤菌的基因型来预测其固氮效率,共生固氮效率与根瘤菌基因型的关系较与分离宿主的关系更加密切。在中度干旱胁迫下,白三叶草植株地上部生物量积累所受影响较地下部所受影响更大,在白三叶草与根瘤菌共生体系建立过程中,当根瘤菌固定的氮素可以满足植株生长需要时,干旱胁迫可能成为生长的限制因子。     

牧草促生菌分离鉴定及对大豆促生性能的研究

以大豆(黔豆 1号)为研究对象,从贵州不同地区采集的根瘤样品中,挑选菌落隆起、边缘整齐、有粘液,且固氮酶活性较高的 6个菌株进行鉴定并制成复合接种剂,分析不同组合处理对大豆的株高、根长、根瘤数、地上与地下部分生物产量等的影响,测定了营养品质粗蛋白(CP)、中性纤维(NDF)、酸性纤维(ADF)、全磷(P)、钙(Ca)的含量,旨在从中筛选出与大豆植株共生匹配最佳的组合菌株。结果表明:经鉴定其中 4株是根瘤菌(R286-1、R287-3、R310-1、R325-3),2株为内生细菌(R286-5、R287-5)。与单一接种根瘤菌处理相比,大多组合接种剂可显著促进大豆的茎粗,地上部分干物质重量 B2,D1和 D2的效果最明显,A1、B1和 D1增加根系生物量的效果最佳,根瘤数 A2、B2、C1和 D1结瘤最多。加施内生细菌能显著提高植物的 CP含量,复合菌剂比 CK提高 4.6%～13.1%,Ca含量仅 D1比 CK下降11.3%,其他组合提高 4.1%～20.8%,明显降低了ADF含量(除A1、B1、B2、D1)。综合分析,应用生产潜力最大的 4个菌组为A2、B2、C1、D2,为大豆菌肥的研制奠定试验基础。     

芽孢杆菌与根瘤菌复合包衣对大豆结瘤固氮能力的影响

为了探究不同芽孢杆菌与根瘤菌复合包衣对大豆结瘤固氮的影响,通过盆栽试验,设置不接菌对照(CK)、根瘤菌单独包衣(R)、阿氏芽孢杆菌(RB)和胶质类芽孢杆菌(RP)2种促生菌分别与根瘤菌双包衣以及 3种菌混合包衣(RBP)共5个处理,测定大豆根瘤数量、干重、根瘤固氮酶活性及植株氮、磷、钾含量,筛选根瘤菌剂最佳组合。结果表明,接种菌剂的处理均能够促进大豆结瘤固氮,其中RB处理效果最好,能够获得最高的大豆植株干重、根瘤数量、根瘤干重、固氮酶活性、全氮含量,比CK分别提高51.80%、14.44%、53.33%、44.36%、25.61%,3种菌包衣并没有比双接种促生效果更好。相关性分析表明,根瘤干重与固氮酶活性、根瘤数量及植株干重都呈显著正相关关系,说明根瘤的质量可能比数量更能准确评价共生固氮效率。此结果为根瘤菌剂应用于机械化种植提供可能性,为进一步推广根瘤菌剂的规模化生产应用提供了科学依据。     

GUS基因标记法对慢生花生根瘤菌竞争结瘤和接种效果的研究

应用GUS基因标记技术,可简便、快速、准确、原位、直观地确定标记花生根瘤菌株形成的根瘤,从而方便地研究标记菌株与土著根瘤菌的竞争结瘤能力。无氮水培试验表明,标记菌株gusA4-5、gusA2-9分别与土著菌混和接种占瘤率为71.4%、77.0%。盆栽试验表明,接种供试菌株Spr4-5、Spr2-9占瘤率分别为57.9%、63.0%,比对照极显著增产52.5%、22.7%;接种Spr4-5比Spr2-9极显著增产24.2%。初步说明两个供试菌株的竞争结瘤力比土著根瘤菌强,菌株Spr2-9强于Spr4-5;Spr4-5比Spr2-9有效性高,是结瘤适量,竞争结瘤能力强的高效菌株。     

celB基因标记法研究酸性土花生接种及施钼效果

以缺钼酸性紫色土为供试土壤做盆栽试验,选用celB标记的三株慢生型花生根瘤菌celB3-5、celB3-7、celB4-5接种天府9号花生。通过标记根瘤菌形成的根瘤能与检测试剂产生颜色反应的特征,检测施钼及施不同浓度的钼对花生-根瘤菌有效性和竞争性的影响。结果表明,缺钼酸性紫色土上单施钼、单接种、接种配合施钼均能促进花生与根瘤菌的共生固氮效应和竞争结瘤能力,但接种配合施钼的效果最好,单接种的效果次之,单施钼的效果差。单施钼时,0.4%的钼酸铵拌种效果好,接种根瘤菌时,0.2%的效果好。供试菌株中celB4-5的有效性和竞争性最强,celB3-7次之,celB3-5差。     

The potential for rhizobial inoculation to increase soybean grain yields on acid soils in Ethiopia

In Ethiopia, inoculation of soybean with rhizobial inoculants is not common practice, but could provide an option to increase grain yields in low nitrogen (N) acidic soils. In these acid soils, the selection of acid tolerant rhizobia is one strategy that may increase the performance of soybean. In this study, rhizobial strains isolated from Ethiopian soils were evaluated for their acid tolerance and symbiotic N fixation efficiency with soybean, in controlled environments. Following this, four isolated rhizobial strains were evaluated in six field experiments in major soybean growing areas of Ethiopia. Inoculation with the commercial strain or with one of two locally sourced isolates, that were developed as inoculants, improved soybean yield. The yield increase due to inoculation with the commercial strain was consistent and greater than other treatments, while the increase due to the two locally sourced strains was comparable to, or greater than, application of 46 kg N/ha in soils, where the resident rhizobial population was ≤1.4 × 10³ cfu/g soil. For soils with high background rhizobial populations, there was no response to inoculation. In one of the experimental sites (Bako), the percentage of N fixed (%Ndfa) was 55 for the commercial strain and 35 for the local strain, ES3. This study demonstrated that field validation is a necessary step in the selection of acid-tolerant strains of rhizobia to increase soybean production for Ethiopia.     

Multiple occupancy of nodules by nodulating rhizobia on field-grown soybeans with attendance of Sinorhizobium spp.

Abstract

This study analyzed the phenotypic and genotypic characters of nodulating rhizobia isolated from two soybean cultivars, Kyushu 151 and Sachiyutaka, in the same field of the Yamaguchi Prefectural Technology Center of Agriculture and Forestry in Japan. The isolates were classified into groups using phenotypic characteristics, such as growth rate, color change on Bromothymol blue-containing yeast extract-mannitol agar (YMA) plates and colony morphology on YMA plates, and by genotypic characteristics, such as polymerase chain reaction–restriction fragment length polymorphism patterns of the 16S ribosomal RNA genes (16S rDNA) and the internal transcribed sequence (ITS) regions. In Kyushu 151, single phenotypic and genotypic groups were isolated from every nodule examined. In Sachiyutaka, plural strains belonging to distinct groups were obtained frequently from single nodules, indicating that multiple occupancy was established at high frequency. No fixed combination of the groups was found in the composition of multiple occupancy. An increase in the relative abundance of isolates belonging to Sinorhizobium fredii (Ensifer fredii) occurred concomitantly with the increase in the proportion of nodules with multiple occupancy. Nearly 60% of the isolates from Sachiyutaka belonged to S. fredii; 75% of them were obtained from nodules with multiple occupancy.

Sampling effects on the assessment of genetic diversity of rhizobia associated with soybean and common bean

Biological nitrogen fixation plays a key role in agriculture sustainability, and assessment of rhizobial diversity contributes to worldwide knowledge of biodiversity of soil microorganisms, to the usefulness of rhizobial collections and to the establishment of long-term strategies aimed at increasing contributions of legume-fixed N to agriculture. Although in recent decades the use of molecular techniques has contributed greatly to enhancing knowledge of rhizobial diversity, concerns remain over simple issues such as the effects of sampling on estimates of diversity. In this study, rhizobia were isolated from nodules of plants grown under field conditions, in pots containing soil, or in Leonard jars receiving a 10⁻² or a 10⁻⁴ serially-diluted soil inoculum, using one exotic (soybean, Glycine max) and one indigenous (common bean, Phaseolus vulgaris) legume species. The experiments were performed using an oxisol with a high population (10⁵ cells g⁻¹ soil) of both soybean rhizobia, composed of naturalized strains introduced in inoculants and of indigenous common-bean rhizobia. BOX-PCR was used to evaluate strain diversity, while RFLP-PCR of the ITS (internally transcribed spacer) region with five restriction enzymes aimed at discriminating rhizobial species. In both analyses the genetic diversity of common-bean rhizobia was greater than that of soybean. For the common bean, diversity was greatly enhanced at the 10⁻⁴ dilution, while for the soybean dilution decreased diversity. Qualitative differences were also observed, as the DNA profiles differed for each treatment in both host plants. Differences obtained can be attributed to dissimilarity in the history of the introduction of both the host plant and the rhizobia (exotic vs. indigenous), to host-plant specificity, rhizobial competitiveness, and population structure, including ease with which some types are released from microcolonies in soil. Therefore, sampling method should be considered both in the interpretation and comparison of the results obtained in different studies, and in the setting of the goals of any study, e.g. selection of competitive strains, or collection of a larger spectrum of rhizobia. Furthermore, effects of sampling should be investigated for each symbiosis.     

Ability of free-living cells ofBradyrhizobium japonicum to denitrify in soils

Summary Experiments to assess the ability of free-living cells of six strains of soybean rhizobia (Bradyrhizobium japonicum USDA 76, 94, 110, 122, 123, and 135) to denitrify nitrate in five soils showed that although some strains ofB. japonicum have the capacity to rapidly denitrify nitrate in soils under anaerobic conditions, it is unlikely that the numbers of soybean rhizobia commonly found under field conditions are sufficient to significantly influence either the extent or the products of denitrification in soil. It is our general conclusion that the advantages, if any, that the ability to denitrify conveys to rhizobia or to the rhizobia-legume symbiosis are not offset by increased losses of plant-available N when denitrifying strains of rhizobia are present as free-living cells in soil.     

Genetic diversity and symbiotic efficiency of population of rhizobia of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Phaseolus vulgaris</Emphasis> L. in Brazil

The genetic diversity and symbiotic efficiency among indigenous rhizobia isolates obtained from native field with or without organic fertilization and superficial mineral fertilization were investigated. Eighty-six indigenous rhizobia were isolated from these fields using four common bean varieties as trap-host. The common bean varieties Mexico 309 and Rio Tibagi selected the most efficient rhizobia strains because they showed the best yields and N contents results. The genetic characterization of 36 rhizobia isolates was evaluated by using electrophoretic profiles of amplification products using primers ERIC1-R and ERIC-2. Our results demonstrated that besides the large diversity in the indigenous rhizobial community, the genotype of the trap-host probably influences the selection of the most efficient strains.     

Intrinsic antibiotic resistance and competition in fast- and slow-growing soybean rhizobia on a hybrid of Asian and US cultivars

Summary Six fast-growing soybean rhizobia (Rhizobium fredii) and thirteen slow-growing soybean rhizobia (Bradyrhizobium japonicum) were examined for resistance to 10 antibiotics. Axenic studies were carried out to determine the competitiveness of dual-strain inocula consisting of fast- and slow-growing rhizobia isolated from subtropical-tropical soils for nodule occupancy on a hybrid of Asian and US soybean cultivars. Nodule occupancy was determined by intrinsic resistance to erythromycin and neomycin. The results showed wide variability in resistance to 10 antibiotics for fast- and slow-growing rhizobia. The intrinsic antibiotic resistance of fast- and slow-growing rhizobia was extremely high against nalidixic acid (400 g ml^–1) and penicillin (200 g ml^–1). The competitive ability of inoculant strains for nodule occupancy varied for different combination sets and with the plant growing media. Our results show that fast-growing rhizobia nodulate a hybrid of Asian and US soybean cultivars. Fast-growing soybean rhizobia did not completely exclude nodulation by the slow-growing strains, which formed 0–79% nodules, depending on the strain used in the inoculum.     

Can introduced and indigenous rhizobial strains compete for nodule formation by promiscuous soybean in the moist savanna agroecological zone of Nigeria?

Promiscuous soybean lines have been bred on the basis that they would nodulate freely without artificial inoculation. However, our recent studies have demonstrated that the indigenous rhizobia are not able to meet their full nitrogen (N) requirement. Rhizobia inoculation might be necessary. We examined the competition for nodule formation among native Rhizobia spp. and two inoculated Bradyrhizobia strains (R25B indigenous strain and a mixture of R25B+IRj 2180A indigenous strain from soybean lines in the savanna of northern Nigeria), their effect on N fixation, and their contribution to the yield of four soybean cultivars, grown in the field in three different agroecological zones in the moist savanna of Nigeria. About 34% of nodules were formed by the mixture of introduced R25B+IRj 2180A, while R25B formed only about 24% of the nodules but did not influence biomass and grain yield production. The indigenous rhizobia strains that nodulated the soybean varieties fixed up to 70% of their accumulated total N, confirming the promiscuous nature of these soybean varieties. Even though these varieties fixed about 75 kg N ha ^-1; this was not enough to sustain their optimum grain yield, as earlier reported. However, the grain yield from inoculated soybean was not significantly higher than that from the uninoculated soybean, showing a degree of competitiveness among the introduced rhizobial strains and the native rhizobia population.
