<Emphasis Type="Italic">Rhizobium</Emphasis>,<Emphasis Type="Italic"> Bradyrhizobium</Emphasis> and<Emphasis Type="Italic"> Agrobacterium</Emphasis> strains isolated from cultivated legumes

The present study was conducted to isolate and characterize rhizobial strains from root nodules of cultivated legumes, i.e. chickpea, mungbean, pea and siratro. Preliminary characterization of these isolates was done on the basis of plant infectivity test, acetylene reduction assay, C-source utilization, phosphate solubilization, phytohormones and polysaccharide production. The plant infectivity test and acetylene reduction assay showed effective root nodule formation by all the isolates on their respective hosts, except for chickpea isolate Ca-18 that failed to infect its original host. All strains showed homology to a typical Rhizobium strain on the basis of growth pattern, C-source utilization and polysaccharide production. The strain Ca-18 was characterized by its phosphate solubilization and indole acetic acid (IAA) production. The genetic relationship of the six rhizobial strains was carried out by random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) including a reference strain of Bradyrhizobium japonicum TAL-102. Analysis conducted with 60 primers discriminated between the strains of Rhizobium and Bradyrhizobium in two different clusters. One of the primers, OPB-5, yielded a unique RAPD pattern for the six strains and well discriminated the non-nodulating chickpea isolate Ca-18 from all the other nodulating rhizobial strains. Isolate Ca-18 showed the least homology of 15% and 18% with Rhizobium and Bradyrhizobium, respectively, and was probably not a (Brady)rhizobium strain. Partial 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis for MN-S, TAL-102 and Ca-18 strains showed 97% homology between MN-S and TAL-102 strains, supporting the view that they were strains of B. japonicum species. The non-infective isolate Ca-18 was 67% different from the other two strains and probably was an Agrobacterium strain.     

Solubilization of zinc phosphate by a strain of Pseudomonas fluorescens isolated from a forest soil

 A strain of Pseudomonas fluorescens, able to solubilize zinc phosphate, was isolated from a forest soil. Colonies of the microorganism produced clear haloes on solid medium incorporating zinc phosphate, but only when glucose was provided as the carbon source. Solubilization of zinc phosphate occurred by both an increase in the H⁺ concentration of the medium, probably a consequence of ammonia assimilation, and the production of gluconic acid. High concentrations of gluconic acid were produced when P. fluorescens 3a was cultured in the presence of zinc phosphate. Although under some conditions gluconic acid is purportedly able to solubilize metals by the formation of chelates, no evidence of zinc chelation was obtained in our experiments. Furthermore, the increased Zn²⁺ concentration caused by the solubilization process resulted in the manifestation of toxic effects on the culture. A sample of the culture, sonicated to disrupt cells, still possessed the ability to produce gluconic acid from glucose, in the presence and absence of zinc phosphate. The lack of gluconic acid overproduction in cultures of P. fluorescens 3a which were not amended with zinc phosphate suggests that at least some of the glucose oxidation required for the zinc solubilization occurred as a result of the toxic stress caused by the high Zn²⁺ concentration.

Characterization of phosphate solubilizing fluorescent pseudomonads from the rhizosphere of Aloe vera (L.)

Soil phosphorous (P) deficiency is a major constraint to plant production which is overcome by adding inorganic-phosphate as chemical fertilizers. Fluorescent pseudomonads are the diverse group of bacteria able to mobilize sparingly soluble phosphate form. Total three hundred seven fluorescent Pseudomonas isolates were obtained from the Aloe barbadensis (Miller) rhizosphere. These Pseudomonas strains were further evaluated in vitro for their ability to solubilize phosphate and to produce indole acetic acid (IAA), hydrogen cyanide (HCN), siderophore and 1-aminocyclopropane 1- carboxylate (ACC) deaminase. Fifty three (36.8%) isolates produced IAA and 52 (36.1%) isolates produced siderophores whereas 36 (25.0%) and 31 (21.5%) isolates produced HCN and ACC deaminase, respectively. A positive correlation existed between siderophore and ACC deaminase producers. Cluster analysis showed rhizosphere as the major factor influencing the ecological distribution and physiological characterization of phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB). Based on partial 16S rRNA gene sequencing PSB were identified as Pseudomonas putida, Pseudomonas sp. and Pseudomonas plecoglossicida with highest phosphate solubilization ability. In conclusion, these phosphate solubilizing fluorescent pseudomonads would help in understanding their role in phosphorus solubilization and identification of potent phosphorus solubilizers from the rhizosphere of commercially grown A. barbadensis.     

Inoculation of phosphate-solubilizing bacteria Bacillus thuringiensis B1 increases available phosphorus and growth of peanut in acidic soil

Phosphate-solubilizing microorganisms play an important role in plant nutrition by enhancing phosphorus (P) availability to roots through converting the insoluble phosphates into soluble ions. We isolated phosphate-solubilizing bacteria (PSB) from acidic soil (Ultisols) in the field from the layer of 0–150 mm at a tea garden located at 28°38′26″ N and 116°24′27″ E. The capacity of bacterial isolates to solubilize mineral phosphate was tested on aluminum phosphate (AlPO₄) in liquid medium. Among these PSB, isolate B1 (identified as Bacillus thuringiensis) exhibited the maximum P-solubilizing ability and was particularly efficient at solubilizing AlPO₄ (up to 321 mg L^?1) in vitro. The isolate B1 was inoculated to an acidic soil to study its effect on phosphate solubilization and growth of peanuts (Arachis hypogeae). The Olsen-P in the tested soil increased from 14.7 to 23.4 mg kg^?1, with solubilization of 16.4 mg kg^?1 soil of Occluded-P after 14-day incubation. The inoculation by B1 significantly increased plant height (from 37.7 to 45.7 cm), number of branches (from 34.0 to 52.7 per plant), hundred-seed weight (from 42.1 to 46.9 g) and crude protein content (from 243.5 to 268.2 g kg^?1 dry weight). The phosphate-solubilizing B. thuringiensis strain B1 showed potential as a biological phosphorus fertilizer.     

Phosphate Solubilization by Several Genera of Saprophytic Fungi and Its Influence on Corn and Cowpea Growth

The aim of this study was to test the ability of several strains of fungi, which were isolated from the Brazilian Amazon, to solubilize calcium phosphate in vitro and to promote corn and cowpea growth under axenic conditions. Each plant species received six treatments: inoculation with strains with high solubilization index (SI) (Haematonectria ipomoeae CML 3249 and Pochonia chlamydosporia var. catenulate CML 3250) and control treatments: inoculation with strain that does not solubilize phosphate on Pikovskaya agar (PVK) (Acremonium polychromum FSA115), and non-inoculated treatments with high concentration of insoluble phosphate (HPins), high concentration of soluble phosphate (HPs) or low concentration of soluble phosphate (LPs). The fungi strains had SI between 1.07 cm and 2.03 cm including species without previous report in the literature of their capacity to solubilize calcium phosphate. The two phosphate-solubilizing strains promoted greater corn and cowpea root growth than the controls FSA115, HPins and LPs, to a level similar to the HPs control.     

A diazotrophic, indole-3-acetic acid-producing endophyte from wild cottonwood

An endophytic bacterium, wild poplar strain B (WPB), isolated from stems of wild cottonwood (Populus trichocarpa) was identified to Burkholderia vietnamiensis by analyzing the recA and rDNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis of the nifHDK cluster indicates that the WPB isolate shares high sequence similarity with known B. vietnamiensis strains. The nitrogenase activity of WPB was determined by a ¹⁵N₂ incorporation assay and an acetylene reduction assay. WPB was also monitored for production of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), a phytohormone which can promote plant growth, when incubated with l-tryptophan. In addition, its plant growth promotion capacity was assessed by inoculating the WPB strain onto Kentucky bluegrass in nitrogen-free medium. Compared to uninoculated control plants, the plants inoculated with WPB gained more dry weight (42%, p = 0.01) and more nitrogen content (37%, p = 0.04) in 50 days.     

Use of Rhizobium leguminosarum as a potential biofertilizer for Lactuca sativa and Daucus carota crops

Microbial biofertilizers are becoming an effective tool for sustainable agriculture by means of the reduction of the use of chemical fertilizers. However, the knowledge of each specific plant–microorganism interaction is essential for a correct application. In this study, we analyzed the in vitro plant‐growth‐promotion mechanisms of a Rhizobium leguminosarum strain named PEPV16 isolated from Phaseolus vulgaris nodules. This strain was able to produce siderophores and indole acetic acid and to solubilize phosphate. Confocal microscopy showed that this strain was able to colonize the roots of two horticultural crops, Lactuca sativa L. (lettuce) and Daucus carota L. (carrot). Strain PEPV16 was also able to promote the plant growth of both plant species increasing the dry matter of shoots and roots of lettuce and carrots, respectively, as well as to increase the uptake of N and P in the edible parts of both plant species. These data confirmed the suitability of Rhizobium as biofertilizer for nonlegumes.     

Solubilization of inorganic phosphates and growth emergence of wheat as affected by Azotobacter chroococcum mutants

 Phosphate-solubilizing strains of A. chroococcum isolated from the wheat rhizosphere were evaluated for their ability to solubilize tricalcium phosphate (TCP), Mussoorie rock phosphate (MRP) and also for indole-acetic-acid (IAA) production. Strains were selected on the basis of the clearance zone on solid agar media of Pikovskaya and Jensen's media containing TCP, and phosphate solubilization in Jensen's liquid culture medium containing both TCP and MRP. Mutants of the best phosphate-solubilizing (TCP 1.52 μg ml^–1 MRP 0.19 μg ml^–1), IAA-producing A. chroococum strain P-4, were developed and screened for P solubilization and phytohormone production. Five mutants solubilized more P (in the range of 1.5–1.7 μg/ml^–1 of TCP and 0.19–0.22 μg ml^–1 of MRP) than the parent strains. In vitro growth emergence studies of three wheat varieties, viz. C-306, WH-542 and HD-2009, showed better performance with phosphate-solubilizing mutants than with the parent strain. Received: 15 October 1997     

Improvement of crop yield by phosphate-solubilizing Aspergillus species in organic farming

Phosphate-solubilizing fungal strains were isolated from organically managed soil and tested for their ability to solubilize rock phosphate (RP), ferric phosphate and aluminium phosphate. These strains were identified as Aspergillus tubingensis and Aspergillus niger based on internal transcribed spacer sequence analysis. A field study was conducted in two different seasons in organically managed soil to test the efficacy of two strains, A. tubingensis (PSF-4) and A. niger (PSF-7) on the yield and soil fertility. RP was amended at the rate of 59 kg P₂O₅ ha^?1 to study the effect of RP on soil fertility. The maize was grown in rainy season (July–October 2011) and wheat in winter season (November 2011–April 2012). Plant heights, shoot and root dry biomass and phosphorous (P) uptake in roots, shoots and grains were significantly increased due to inoculation in both crops. The yield of maize and wheat were significantly increased when inoculated along with RP fertilization. Organic carbon, P levels and soil enzyme activities were significantly increased due to inoculation. Results of present study suggested that A. tubingensis and A. niger improved the crop yield and soil fertility of organic farm when inoculated with RP fertilization.

Isolation and characterization of a cDNA from Catharanthus roseus which is highly homologous with phosphate transporter

The PIT1 gene which is highly homologous with phosphate transporter was isolated from Catharanthus roseus and analyzed. The cBNA PIT1 contained an open reading frame of 542 amino acids and its sequence showed a 31, 30, and 34% identity with the phosphate transporter of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (PBO84), Neurospora crassa (PHO-5), and Glomus versiforme (GvPT), respectively. Furthermore, the cDNA PIT1 encoded a highly hydrophobic protein with 12 putative membrane-spanning regions and contained a conserved amino acid sequence reported in the human glucose transporter super-family* S. cerevisiae strain DpU (pho84 knockout strain) was unable to grow on low phosphate (55 μM) medium (LP medium). Expression of the PIT1 cDNA enabled DpU to grow on LP medium. Northern hybridization analysis revealed that the PIT1 gene was expressed in roots, stems, and young whole plant of C. roseus, but not in leaves.     

Phosphate solubilizing bacteria and fungi in desert soils: species,limitations and mechanisms

Desert soils are infertile, and the ability to improve them by P-fertilization is limited by the solubility of phosphate. We aimed to understand the function of phosphate solubilizing bacteria and the mechanisms behind phosphate solubilization in desert soils. Vegetated and barren desert soils, mine spoil and a fertile temperate grassland loam were sampled. Bacteria and fungi were isolated and identified, and their phosphate-solubilizing abilities were measured in vitro. The release of plant available PO₄, SO₄, NO₃ and NH₄ from desert soils did not compare with that of a grassland soil. Desert soils had substantially lower solubilization than grassland, 162 and 99–121 µg PO₄-P g^?1 dry soil, respectively. Phosphate-solubilizing bacteria and fungi were inhabiting the soils. Si addition increased phosphate solubilization of fungi by 50%. The isolated microbes were shown, using ³¹P nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis, to rapidly take-up both intracellular and extracellular phosphate during the phosphate solubilizing process. Desert soil had potentially active microbial populations that are capable to solubilize inorganic phosphorus; S and Si as the limiting factors. Acidification as the main mechanism to solubilize mineral phosphate was not as evident in our desert soils as in former studies dealing more fertile soils.     

两株解磷细菌的解磷活性及作用机制研究

解磷细菌在增加土壤可溶性磷含量、提高磷肥利用效率方面具有重要作用。为选筛高效解磷菌、探讨其解磷机制,本文利用平板溶磷圈法筛选解磷细菌,采用钼锑抗比色法研究其解磷活性,苯磷酸二钠法研究其磷酸酶活性,利用薄层层析分析其产生的有机酸,根据生理生化特征和16S r RNA基因序列系统发育分析,确定其分类学地位。结果表明,菌株JXJ-11和JXJ-15对植酸钙的降解活性很强,3 d后培养液中可溶性磷浓度分别增加219 mg·L~(-1)和216 mg·L~(-1);对磷酸钙降解活性较弱,最高可溶性磷浓度仅为植酸钙的21.79%~30.37%;解磷细菌可分泌酸性、中性和碱性磷酸酶,降解不溶性磷,可能产生丙酸和琥珀酸等有机酸,降低培养液p H,增加可溶性磷浓度。两株细菌均为革兰氏阴性杆菌,无芽孢,产生硫化氢,其中菌株JXJ-11的16S rRNA基因序列与Sphingomonas melonis DAPP-PG 224T和S.aquatilis JSS7T相似性最高(99.79%),菌株JXJ-15的16S rRNA基因序列与Klebsiella pneumoniae subsp.pneumoniae DSM 30104T相似性最高(99.73%),根据以上信息,确定菌株JXJ-11和JXJ-15分别是鞘氨醇单胞菌属和克雷白氏杆菌属的成员。菌株JXJ-11和JXJ-15的解磷机制包括分泌有机酸和磷酸酶,其中JXJ-11在微生物磷肥研制方面具有潜在应用价值。     

Phosphate solubilizing microorganisms isolated from rhizosphere of maize cultivated in an oxisol of the Brazilian Cerrado Biome

Many soil microorganisms are able to transform insoluble forms of phosphorus to an accessible soluble form, contributing to plant nutrition as plant growth-promoting microorganisms (PGPM). The objective of this work was to isolate, screen and evaluate the phosphate solubilization activity of microorganisms in maize rhizosphere soil to manage soil microbial communities and to select potential microbial inoculants. Forty-five of the best isolates from 371 colonies were isolated from rhizosphere soil of maize grown in an oxisol of the Cerrado Biome with P deficiency. These microorganisms were selected based on the solubilization efficiency of inorganic and organic phosphate sources in a modified Pikovskaya's liquid medium culture containing sodium phytate (phytic acid), soybean lecithin, aluminum phosphate (AlPO₄), and tricalcium phosphate (Ca₃(PO₄)₂). The isolates were identified based on nucleotide sequence data from the 16S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) for bacteria and actinobacteria and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) rDNA for fungi. Bacteria produced the greatest solubilization in medium containing tricalcium phosphate. Strains B17 and B5, identified as Bacillus sp. and Burkholderia sp., respectively, were the most effective, mobilizing 67% and 58.5% of the total P (Ca₃(PO₄)₂) after 10 days, and were isolated from the rhizosphere of the P efficient L3 maize genotype, under P stress. The fungal population was the most effective in solubilizing P sources of aluminum, phytate, and lecithin. A greater diversity of P-solubilizing microorganisms was observed in the rhizosphere of the P efficient maize genotypes suggesting that the P efficiency in these cultivars may be related to the potential to enhance microbial interactions of P-solubilizing microorganisms.     

The application of phosphate solubilizing endophyte Pantoea dispersa triggers the microbial community in red acidic soil

To confirm whether endophytes are members that play important roles in phosphorus (P) solubilization in red acidic soil, five endophytes that have the potential to dissolve insoluble P were isolated from cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) root. Based on the maximum amount of soluble P in Ca₃(PO₄)₂, AlPO₄, and FePO₄ liquid NBRIP, the strain Pantoea dispersa was selected to investigate the ability to solubilize phosphate over time. Our results showed that the solubilizing process of P. dispersa was accompanied by acid production. Beside succinate, oxalic acid, and citric acid, two special organic acids, salicylic acid, and benzeneacetic acid were found during microbial P solubilization. Based on PCR-DGGE (denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis) analysis, soil application of P. dispersa triggered natural soil microbial activity. This phenomenon could be maintained up to 25 days, suggesting that the endophyte P. dispersa would be a suitable candidate for optimizing agro-microecological systems via soluble P release in red acidic soil.     

C、N源及C/N比对微生物溶磷的影响

以不同的氮源 (NH4+、NO3- 、尿素 )、不同的碳源 (葡萄糖、蔗糖、糖蜜和淀粉 )及碳氮比 (34∶1、20∶1、5∶1)为培养基研究不同C、N源和C/N比对微生物溶磷的影响。结果发现 ,曲霉 2TCiF2和 4TCiF6在以NO3-为氮源的培养基中表现出强的解磷活力 ,而节杆菌 1TCRi7和 1TCRi14的溶磷活性则在NO3-存在时降低 ,青霉 1TCRiF5、2TCRiF4、肠杆菌 1TCRi15和欧文氏菌 4TCRi2 2则只有在供给NH4+时 ,才具有溶解磷矿粉的能力。加入少量可溶性磷对大多数微生物的溶磷能力没有显著的影响。曲霉 2TCiF2在蔗糖为碳源时溶磷活力最高 ,节杆菌 1TCRi7只有在葡萄糖为碳源时才具有溶磷能力。培养基的C/N比越高 ,曲霉和欧文氏杆菌的溶磷活力越高 ,而青霉和肠杆菌则在C/N比最低时 ,其溶磷活力最强。这些微生物之所以具有溶解磷矿粉的能力 ,主要是由于分泌有机酸 ,但非有机酸物质的络合和螯合作用 ,可能在肠杆菌和欧文氏菌溶磷中起重要作用。氮源、碳源和碳氮比极大地影响微生物的代谢 ,尤其对分泌有机酸等物质的种类可能产生很大的影响。     

磷-铅-柠檬酸在红壤胶体上相互作用机理初探

以红壤胶体为对象,通过等温平衡试验,研究了柠檬酸对红壤胶体吸附磷的影响,以及吸附磷和柠檬酸后弃去上清液(次级吸附)和保留上清液(共吸附)两种方式对红壤胶体固定铅的影响。结果表明,柠檬酸对红壤胶体磷吸附产生抑制作用,且随着柠檬酸浓度增加而抑制作用增强;用Langmuir方程拟合时,红壤胶体对磷的吸附反应常数K、最大吸附量X m均随柠檬酸初始浓度增加而降低。吸附磷和柠檬酸后,两种处理方式对铅的固定量影响有明显差异,总体上,次级吸附试验中铅的固定量低于共吸附;且两种方式中铅的固定量均随磷初始浓度及磷吸附量的增加而增加,随柠檬酸浓度升高而降低。共吸附中铅固定量在柠檬酸初始浓度为0.1 mmol L-1和磷初始浓度小于0.4 mmol L-1时达到较高值,说明在此浓度下磷和柠檬酸的共同存在促进了红壤胶体对铅的固定。     

The influence of plant growth–promoting rhizobacteria on growth and enzyme activities in wheat and spinach plants

A pot experiment in a greenhouse was conducted in order to investigate the effect of different N₂‐fixing, phytohormone‐producing, and P‐solubilizing bacterial species on wheat and spinach growth and enzyme activities. Growth parameters and the activities of four enzymes, glucose‐6‐phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD; EC 1.1.1.49), 6‐phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6PGD; EC 1.1.1.44), glutathione reductase (GR; EC 1.8.1.7), and glutathione S‐transferase (GST; EC 2.5.1.18) were determined in the leaves of wheat (Triticum aestivum L., Konya) and spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.), noninoculated and inoculated with nine plant growth–promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR: Bacillus cereus RC18, Bacillus licheniformis RC08, Bacillus megaterium RC07, Bacillus subtilis RC11, Bacillus OSU‐142, Bacillus M‐13, Pseudomonas putida RC06, Paenibacillus polymyxa RC05 and RC14). Among the strains used in the present study, six PGPR exhibited nitrogenase activity and four were efficient in phosphate solubilization; all bacterial strains were efficient in indole acetic acid (IAA) production and significantly increased growth of wheat and spinach. Inoculation with PGPR increased wheat shoot fresh weight by 16.2%–53.8% and spinach shoot fresh weight by 2.2%–53.4% over control. PGPR inoculation gave leaf area increases by 6.0%–47.0% in wheat and 5.3%–49.3% in spinach. Inoculation increased plant height by 2.2%–24.6% and 1.9%–36.8% in wheat and spinach, respectively. A close relationship between plant growth and enzyme activities such as G6PD, 6PGD, GR, and GST was demonstrated. Plant‐growth response was variable and dependent on the inoculant strain, enzyme activity, plant species, and growth parameter evaluated. In particular, the N₂‐fixing bacterial strains RC05, RC06, RC14, and OSU‐142 and the P‐solubilizing strains RC07 and RC08 have great potential in being formulated and used as biofertilizers.     

磷胁迫下蔗糖对水稻苗期根适应性和磷酸转运蛋白基因表达的影响

磷是植物生长和发育中最重要的必须元素之一。尽管土壤中磷资源很丰富,但大部分磷是以植物不能吸收利用的固定态和有机态存在,特别是以酸性土壤为主的南方稻田,水稻缺磷现象非常严重。理解和掌握水稻对低磷的适应机制有助于利用分子手段培育磷高效利用水稻品种。为阐明蔗糖提高水稻耐低磷的机制,本研究对水稻幼苗进行不同磷、糖处理,分析水稻幼苗在不同磷糖配比培养基中的根系结构、无机磷、酸性磷酸酶活性的变化,并利用定量RT-PCR技术分析水稻磷酸转运蛋白基因(OsPT)和酸性磷酸酶基因(OsSAP1)的表达。试验设2个磷浓度:无磷和85 mg·L?1KH2PO4,2个蔗糖浓度:无糖和3%蔗糖,正交设计。结果表明,在低磷胁迫时添加蔗糖,能使水稻幼苗的根总长度、总根数、根冠比显著增加,根分泌的酸性磷酸酶活性降低,但水稻体内的磷酸转运酶活性提高。11个与磷具有高度亲和力的磷酸转运酶的表达发生了改变,其中根优势表达的4个基因OsPT2、OsPT3、OsPT4、OsPT6对磷、糖的影响最为敏感,暗示了蔗糖是通过调节磷转运蛋白维持磷的吸收和平衡。增加根系的蔗糖分配能够提高水稻幼苗对磷胁迫的耐受性。
