Characterization and Assessment of 2, 4-Diacetylphloroglucinol (DAPG)-Producing Pseudomonas fluorescens VSMKU3054 for the Management of Tomato Bacterial Wilt Caused by Ralstonia solanacearum. Microorganisms 2022; 10:microorganisms10081508. [PMID: 35893565 PMCID: PMC9330548 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms10081508] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2022] [Revised: 05/16/2022] [Accepted: 05/17/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Microbial bio-products are becoming an appealing and viable alternative to chemical pesticides for effective management of crop diseases. These bio-products are known to have potential to minimize agrochemical applications without losing crop yield and also restore soil fertility and productivity. In this study, the inhibitory efficacy of 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol (DAPG) produced by Pseudomonas fluorescens VSMKU3054 against Ralstonia solanacearum was assessed. Biochemical and functional characterization study revealed that P. fluorescens produced hydrogen cyanide (HCN), siderophore, indole acetic acid (IAA) and hydrolytic enzymes such as amylase, protease, cellulase and chitinase, and had the ability to solubilize phosphate. The presence of the key antimicrobial encoding gene in the biosynthesis of 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol (DAPG) was identified by PCR. The maximum growth and antimicrobial activity of P. fluorescens was observed in king’s B medium at pH 7, 37 °C and 36 h of growth. Glucose and tryptone were found to be the most suitable carbon and nitrogen sources, respectively. DAPG was separated by silica column chromatography and identified by various methods such as UV-Vis, FT-IR, GC-MS and NMR spectroscopy. When R. solanacearum cells were exposed to DAPG at 90 µg/mL, the cell viability was decreased, reactive oxygen species (ROS) were increased and chromosomal DNA was damaged. Application of P. fluorescens and DAPG significantly reduced the bacterial wilt incidence. In addition, P. fluorescens was also found effective in promoting the growth of tomato seedlings. It is concluded that the indigenous isolate P. fluorescens VSMKU3054 could be used as a suitable biocontrol agent against bacterial wilt disease of tomato.

An Isolated Arthrobacter sp. Enhances Rice ( Oryza sativa L.) Plant Growth. Microorganisms 2022; 10:microorganisms10061187. [PMID: 35744704 PMCID: PMC9228311 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms10061187] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2022] [Revised: 06/07/2022] [Accepted: 06/07/2022] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Rice is a symbol of life and a representation of prosperity in South Korea. However, studies on the diversity of the bacterial communities in the rhizosphere of rice plants are limited. In this study, four bundles of root samples were collected from the same rice field located in Goyang, South Korea. These were systematically analyzed to discover the diversity of culturable bacterial communities through culture-dependent methods. A total of 504 culturable bacteria were isolated and evaluated for their plant growth-promoting abilities in vitro. Among them, Arthrobacter sp. GN70 was selected for inoculation into the rice plants under laboratory and greenhouse conditions. The results showed a significantly positive effect on shoot length, root length, fresh plant weight, and dry plant weight. Moreover, scanning electron microscopic (SEM) images demonstrated the accumulation of bacterial biofilm networks at the junction of the primary roots, confirming the root-colonizing ability of the bacterium. The strain also exhibited a broad spectrum of in vitro antimicrobial activities against bacteria and fungi. Here, we first report the rice plant growth-promoting ability of the Arthrobacter species with the biofilm-producing and antimicrobial activities against plant and human pathogens. Genome analyses revealed features attributable to enhance rice plant growth, including the genes involved in the synthesis of plant hormones, biofilm production, and secondary metabolites. This study revealed that the rhizobacteria isolated from the roots of rice plants have dual potential to be utilized as a plant growth promoter and antimicrobial agent.

Metabolomics Tools Assisting Classic Screening Methods in Discovering New Antibiotics from Mangrove Actinomycetia in Leizhou Peninsula. Mar Drugs 2021; 19:md19120688. [PMID: 34940687 PMCID: PMC8707991 DOI: 10.3390/md19120688] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2021] [Revised: 11/23/2021] [Accepted: 11/28/2021] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Mangrove actinomycetia are considered one of the promising sources for discovering novel biologically active compounds. Traditional bioactivity- and/or taxonomy-based methods are inefficient and usually result in the re-discovery of known metabolites. Thus, improving selection efficiency among strain candidates is of interest especially in the early stage of the antibiotic discovery program. In this study, an integrated strategy of combining phylogenetic data and bioactivity tests with a metabolomics-based dereplication approach was applied to fast track the selection process. A total of 521 actinomycetial strains affiliated to 40 genera in 23 families were isolated from 13 different mangrove soil samples by the culture-dependent method. A total of 179 strains affiliated to 40 different genera with a unique colony morphology were selected to evaluate antibacterial activity against 12 indicator bacteria. Of the 179 tested isolates, 47 showed activities against at least one of the tested pathogens. Analysis of 23 out of 47 active isolates using UPLC-HRMS-PCA revealed six outliers. Further analysis using the OPLS-DA model identified five compounds from two outliers contributing to the bioactivity against drug-sensitive A. baumannii. Molecular networking was used to determine the relationship of significant metabolites in six outliers and to find their potentially new congeners. Finally, two Streptomyces strains (M22, H37) producing potentially new compounds were rapidly prioritized on the basis of their distinct chemistry profiles, dereplication results, and antibacterial activities, as well as taxonomical information. Two new trioxacarcins with keto-reduced trioxacarcinose B, gutingimycin B (16) and trioxacarcin G (20), together with known gutingimycin (12), were isolated from the scale-up fermentation broth of Streptomyces sp. M22. Our study demonstrated that metabolomics tools could greatly assist classic antibiotic discovery methods in strain prioritization to improve efficiency in discovering novel antibiotics from those highly productive and rich diversity ecosystems.

Abstract
Electrotrophs play an important role in biogeochemical cycles, but the effects of long-term fertilization on electrotrophic communities in paddy soils remain unclear. Here, we explored the responses of electrotrophic communities in paddy soil-based microcosms to different long-term fertilization practices using microbial electrosynthesis systems (MESs), high-throughput quantitative PCR, and 16s rRNA gene-based Illumina sequencing techniques. Compared to the case in the unfertilized soil (CK), applications of only manure (M); only chemical nitrogen, phosphorous, and potassium fertilizers (NPK); and M plus NPK (MNPK) clearly changed the electrotrophic bacterial community structure. The Streptomyces genus of the Actinobacteria phylum was the dominant electrotroph in the CK, M, and MNPK soils. The latter two soils also favored Truepera of Deinococcus-Thermus or Arenimonas and Thioalkalispira of Proteobacteria. Furthermore, Pseudomonas of Proteobacteria and Bacillus of Firmicutes were major electrotrophs in the NPK soil. These electrotrophs consumed biocathodic currents coupled with nitrate reduction and recovered 18-38% of electrons via dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium (DNRA). The increased abundances of the nrfA gene for DNRA induced by electrical potential further supported that the electrotrophs enhanced DNRA for all soils. These expand our knowledge about the diversity of electrotrophs and their roles in N cycle in paddy soils and highlight the importance of fertilization in shaping electrotrophic communities.

Characterization of antifungal metabolite phenazine from rice rhizosphere fluorescent pseudomonads (FPs) and their effect on sheath blight of rice. Saudi J Biol Sci 2020; 27:3313-3326. [PMID: 33304137 PMCID: PMC7715052 DOI: 10.1016/j.sjbs.2020.10.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2020] [Revised: 10/03/2020] [Accepted: 10/05/2020] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
We have shown, the outcome of antifungal activity of phenazine derivatives which is produced by fluorescent pseudomonads (FPs) for the control of sheath blight of rice. A total of 50 fluorescent pseudomonads (FPs) were isolated from rice rhizosphere. Off which, 36 FPs exhibited antagonistic activity against Rhizoctonia solani, Macrophomina phaseolina, Fusarium oxysporum, Alternaria alternata and Sclerotium rolfsii up to 70–80% compared to control by dual culture method. BOX-PCR analyses of antagonistic isolates indicated that two phylogenetic group, where group I consisted of 28 isolates and eight isolates belongs to group II. Among 36 FPs, a total of 10 FPs revealed that the presence of phenazine derivatives on thin layer chromatography (TLC), which is coincided with that of authentic phenazine with Rf value 0.57. Similar to TLC analysis, antibiotic encoding gene phenazine-1-carboxamide (PCN) was detected in 10 FPs by PCR analysis with respective primer. Among, PCN detected isolates of FPs, a significant biocontrol potential possessing isolate designated as VSMKU1 and it was showed prominent antifungal activity against R. solani and other tested fungal pathogens. Hence, the isolate VSMKU1 was selected for further studies. The selected isolate VSMKU1 was identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa by 16S rDNA sequence analysis. The antifungal metabolite phenazine like compound produced by VSMKU1 was confirmed by UV, FT-IR and HPLC analysis. The phenazine compound from VSMKU1 significantly arrest the growth of R. solani compared to carbendazim by well diffusion method. The detached leaf assay showed remarkable inhibition of lesion height 80 to 85% by the treatments of culture (VSMKU1), cell free culure filtrate and phenazine like compound compared to control and other treatments was observed in detached leaves of rice. These results emphasized that VSMKU1 isolate can be used as an alternative potential biocontrol agent against sheath blight of rice, instead of using commercial fungicide such as validamycin and carbendazim which cause environmental pollution and health hazards.
