Li X, Liu Q, Gao Y, Zang P, Zheng T. Effects of a co-bacterial agent on the growth, disease control, and quality of ginseng based on rhizosphere microbial diversity. BMC PLANT BIOLOGY 2024; 24:647. [PMID: 38977968 PMCID: PMC11229274 DOI: 10.1186/s12870-024-05347-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2024] [Accepted: 06/26/2024] [Indexed: 07/10/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The ginseng endophyte Paenibacillus polymyxa Pp-7250 (Pp-7250) has multifaceted roles such as preventing ginseng diseases, promoting growth, increasing ginsenoside accumulation, and degrading pesticide residues, however, these effects still have room for improvements. Composite fungicides are an effective means to improve the biocontrol effect of fungicides, but the effect of Pp-7250 in combination with its symbiotic bacteria on ginseng needs to be further investigated, and its mechanism of action has not been elucidated. In this study, a series of experiments was conducted to elucidate the effect of Paenibacillus polymyxa and Bacillus cereus co-bacterial agent on the yield and quality of understory ginseng, and to investigate their mechanism of action. RESULTS The results indicated that P. polymyxa and B. cereus co-bacterial agent (PB) treatment improved ginseng yield, ginsenoside accumulation, disease prevention, and pesticide degradation. The mechanism is that PB treatment increased the abundance of beneficial microorganisms, including Rhodanobacter, Pseudolabrys, Gemmatimonas, Bacillus, Paenibacillus, Cortinarius, Russula, Paecilomyces, and Trechispora, and decreased the abundance of pathogenic microorganisms, including Ellin6067, Acidibacter, Fusarium, Tetracladium, Alternaria, and Ilyonectria in ginseng rhizosphere soil. PB co-bacterial agents enhanced the function of microbial metabolic pathways, biosynthesis of secondary metabolites, biosynthesis of antibiotics, biosynthesis of amino acids, carbon fixation pathways in prokaryotes, DNA replication, and terpenoid backbone biosynthesis, and decreased the function of microbial plant pathogens and animal pathogens. CONCLUSION The combination of P. polymyxa and B. cereus may be a potential biocontrol agent to promote the resistance of ginseng to disease and improve the yield, quality, and pesticide degradation.

Abstract
Abiotic stresses including heavy metal toxicity, drought, salt and temperature extremes disrupt the plant growth and development and lowers crop output. Presence of environmental pollutants further causes plants suffering and restrict their ability to thrive. Overuse of chemical fertilizers to reduce the negative impact of these stresses is deteriorating the environment and induces various secondary stresses to plants. Therefore, an environmentally friendly strategy like utilizing plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) is a promising way to lessen the negative effects of stressors and to boost plant growth in stressful conditions. These are naturally occurring inhabitants of various environments, an essential component of the natural ecosystem and have remarkable abilities to promote plant growth. Furthermore, multifarious role of PGPR has recently been widely exploited to restore natural soil against a range of contaminants and to mitigate abiotic stress. For instance, PGPR may mitigate metal phytotoxicity by boosting metal translocation inside the plant and changing the metal bioavailability in the soil. PGPR have been also reported to mitigate other abiotic stress and to degrade environmental contaminants remarkably. Nevertheless, despite the substantial quantity of information that has been produced in the meantime, there has not been much advancement in either the knowledge of the processes behind the alleged positive benefits or in effective yield improvements by PGPR inoculation. This review focuses on addressing the progress accomplished in understanding various mechanisms behind the protective benefits of PGPR against a variety of abiotic stressors and in environmental cleanups and identifying the cause of the restricted applicability in real-world.

Deciphering the enhanced translocation of Pb, Ni and Cd from artificially polluted soil to Chrysopogon zizanioides augmented with Bacillus xiamenensis VITMSJ3. 3 Biotech 2024; 14:180. [PMID: 38882641 PMCID: PMC11178750 DOI: 10.1007/s13205-024-04001-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2024] [Accepted: 04/25/2024] [Indexed: 06/18/2024] Open
Abstract
The translocation of heavy metals (HMs) from the rhizosphere to plant systems constitutes a fundamental mechanism governing HM uptake. Microbial augmentation has emerged as a promising strategy to enhance this process. The study investigates the mechanism of enhanced translocation of heavy metals (HMs) from artificially polluted soil to Chrysopogon zizanioides, facilitated by Bacillus xiamenensis VITMSJ3. Pb, Ni, and Cd translocation to the roots and shoots of C. zizanioides was examined, revealing a significant increase of over 15% in HM uptake upon treatment with Bacillus xiamenensis VITMSJ3 (Accession number MT822866). VITMSJ3 exhibited biofilm formation capabilities, attributed to quorum sensing molecule production, and demonstrated resistance to Pb and Ni upto 4000 ppm and Cd upto 450 ppm, respectively. Moreover, VITMSJ3 displayed plant growth-promoting bacterial (PGPB) traits such as, indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), phosphate, ammonia, siderophore, and hydrogen cyanide (HCN) production. Amplification of candidate genes responsible for HM resistance (pbr for Pb, ncc for Ni, cadA for Cd) corroborated the genetic basis of resistance. SEM-EDAX micrographs confirmed HM uptake and translocation along with the presence of VITMSJ3. Enzymatic analysis revealed the synthesis of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione-S-transferase (GST), peroxidase (POD), and ascorbate peroxidase (APX), implicating their involvement in ROS detoxification. Overall, the study underscores the efficacy of B. xiamenensis VITMSJ3 in enhancing HM translocation, thereby elucidating its potential for phytoremediation applications.

Novel cereal bran based low-cost liquid medium for enhanced growth, multifunctional traits and shelf life of consortium biofertilizer containing Azotobacter chroococcum, Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas sp. J Microbiol Methods 2024; 222:106952. [PMID: 38740286 DOI: 10.1016/j.mimet.2024.106952] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2024] [Revised: 05/09/2024] [Accepted: 05/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024]
Abstract
The present study was carried out to valorise cereal (rice and wheat) bran for the development of low-cost liquid consortium bioformulation. Different concentrations of bran-based liquid media formulations were evaluated for the growth of consortium biofertilizer cultures (Azotobacter chroococcum, Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas sp.). Among the bran-based formulations, wheat bran-based formulation WB5, exhibited the highest viable cell of 10.68 ± 0.09 Log10 CFU/ml and 12.63 ± 0.04 Log10 CFU/ml for Azotobacter chroococcum and Bacillus subtilis whereas for Pseudomonas sp., rice bran based bioformulation RB5 recorded maximum viability (12.71 ± 0.05 Log10 CFU/ml) after 72 h of incubation. RB51 and WB52liquid formulations were further optimized for enhanced shelf life using 5, 10 and 15 mM of trehalose, 0.05 and 0.1% carboxymethyl cellulose, and 0.5 and 1.0% glycerol. Following the peak growth at 72 h of incubation, a gradual decrease in the viable population of consortium biofertilizer cultures was observed in all the liquid formulations. The WB5 and RB5 formulations with 15 mM trehalose and 0.1% CMC, not only recorded significantly highest cell count of consortium biofertilizer cultures, but also maximally supported multi-functional traits i.e., phosphate and zinc solubilization, ammonia and IAA production up to 150 days. Further evaluation of seedling emergence and growth of wheat (PBW 826) under axenic conditions recorded WB5 amended with 15 mM trehalose-based consortium bioformulation to exhibit maximum emergence and growth of wheat seedlings. This low-cost liquid formulation can be used for large-scale biofertilizer production as a cost-effective liquid biofertilizer production technology.

N- acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs) type signal molecules produced by rhizobacteria associated with plants that growing in a metal(oids) contaminated soil: A catalyst for plant growth. Microbiol Res 2024; 281:127606.

Abstract
The present study explores the potential of rhizobacteria isolated from Baccharis linearis and Solidago chilensis in metal(loid)-contaminated soil for producing N-acyl-homoserine lactones (AHLs)-type signal molecules and promoting plant growth. A total of 42 strains were isolated, four demonstrating the production of AHL-type signal molecules. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequencing analyses and MALDI-TOF analyses, these four isolates were identified as belonging to the Pseudomonas genus, specifically P. brassicacearum, P. frederickberguensis, P. koreensis, and P. orientalis. The four AHL-producing strains were evaluated for metal(loid)s tolerance, their plant growth promotion traits, AHL quantification, and their impact on in vitro Lactuca sativa plant growth. The study found that four strains exhibited high tolerance to metal(loid)s, particularly As, Cu, and Zn. Additionally, plant growth-promoting traits were detected in AHL-producing bacteria, such as siderophore production, ammonia production, ACC deaminase activity, and P solubilization. Notably, AHL production varied among strains isolated from B. linearis, where C7-HSL and C9-HSL signal molecules were detected, and S. chilensis, where only C7-HSL signal molecules were observed. In the presence of copper, the production of C7-HSL and C9-HSL significantly decreased in B. linearis isolates, while in S. chilensis isolates, C7-HSL production was inhibited. Further, when these strains were inoculated on lettuce seeds and in vitro plants, a significant increase in germination and plant growth was observed. Mainly, the inoculation of P. brassicacearum and P. frederickberguensis led to extensive root hair development, significantly increasing length and root dry weight. Our results demonstrate that rhizospheric strains produce AHL molecules and stimulate plant growth, primarily through root development. However, the presence of copper reduces the production of these molecules, potentially affecting the root development of non-metalloid tolerant plants such as S. chilensis, which would explain its low population in this hostile environment.

Abstract
In agricultural environments, plants are often exposed to abiotic stresses including temperature extremes, salt stress, drought, and heavy metal soil contamination, which leads to significant economic losses worldwide. Especially salt stress and drought pose serious challenges since they induce ionic toxicity, osmotic stress, and oxidative stress in plants. A potential solution can be the application of bacteria of the Serratia spp. known to promote plant growth under normal conditions Thus the mini-review aims to summarize the current knowledge on plant growth promotion by Serratia spp. (under the conditions of salinity stress, drought, and nutrient deficit) and highlight areas for development in the field. So far, it has been proven that Serratia spp. strains exhibit a variety of traits contributing to enhanced plant growth and stress tolerance, such as phytohormone production, ACC deaminase activity, nitrogen fixation, P and Zn solubilization, antioxidant properties improvement, and modulation of gene expression. Nevertheless, further research on Serratia spp. is needed, especially on two subjects: elucidating its mechanisms of action on plants at the molecular level and the effects of Serratia spp. on the indigenous soil and plant microbiota and, particularly, the rhizosphere. In both cases, it is advisable to use omics techniques to gain in-depth insights into the issues. Additionally, some strains of Serratia spp. may be phytopathogens, therefore studies to rule out this possibility are recommended prior to field trials. It is believed that by improving said knowledge the potential of Serratia spp. to stimulate plant growth will increase and strains from the genus will serve as an eco-friendly biofertilizer in sustainable agriculture more often.

Abstract
Photosynthesis is known to be seriously affected by salt stress. The stress induced membrane damage leads to disrupted photosynthetic components causing imbalance between production and utilization of ATP/NADPH with generation of ROS leading to photoinhibition and photodamage. In the current study, role of halotolerant plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) Staphylococcus sciuri ET101 in protection of photosynthesis in tomato plants during salinity stress was evaluated by analysing changes in antioxidant defense and activation of redox dissipation pathways. Inoculation of S. sciuri ET101 significantly enhanced the growth of tomato plants with significantly higher photosynthetic rates (PN) under normal and salinity stress conditions. Further, increased membrane stability, soluble sugar accumulation and significant decrease in malondialdehyde (MDA) content in leaves of ET101 inoculated tomato plants under normal and salinity were observed along with increased expression of antioxidant genes for efficient ROS detoxification and suppression of oxidative damage. Additionally, salinity induced decrease in rate of photosynthesis (PN) due to lowered chloroplastic CO2 concentration (Cc) attributed by low mesophyll conductance (gm) in uninoculated plants was alleviated by ET101 inoculation showing significantly higher carboxylation rate (Vcmax), RuBP generation (Jmax) and increased photorespiration (PR). The genes involved in photorespiratory process, cyclic electron flow (CEF), and alternative oxidase (AOX) pathway of mitochondrial respiration were abundantly expressed in leaves of ET101 inoculated plants indicating their involvement in protecting photosynthesis from salt stress induced photoinhibition. Collectively, our results indicated that S. sciuri ET101 has the potential in protecting photosynthesis of tomato plants under salinity stress through activation of redox dissipation pathways.

Abstract
Gray mold, caused by Botrytis cinerea is a major cause of post-harvest rot of fresh fruits and vegetables. The utilization of selected microorganisms as biocontrol agents is a promising alternative to effectively control gray mold on tomatoes. The current study was conducted to explore potential biocontrol mechanisms of the Pseudomonas strain to control infections on post-harvest tomatoes. Among the 8 tested bacterial isolates, Pseudomonas protegens ML15 demonstrated antagonistic activity to Botrytis cinerea. Moreover, P. protegens ML15 exhibited the production of siderophores, hydrogen cyanide, ammonia, exopolysaccharides, lipase, biosurfactant, 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol, and several other antifungal compounds, such as 1-tetradecanol, cyclododecane, 2,4-di-tert-butylphenol, and 2-methyl-1-hexadecanol. A comprehensive genomic analysis of P. protegens ML15 unravels 18 distinct genetic regions with the potential for biosynthesizing secondary metabolites, known for their pivotal role in biocontrol responses against plant pathogens. In vivo, experiments showed that both culture suspension and cell-free supernatant of P. protegens ML15 significantly reduced fungal growth (53.0 ± 0.63%) and mitigated disease development (52.8 ± 1.5%) in cherry tomatoes at four days post-B. cinerea inoculation. During the infection, the application of P. protegens ML15 resulted in the augmentation of total antioxidant, phenolic content, and ascorbic acids content. Thus, our results suggested that P. protegens ML15's role as a biocontrol agent against B. cinerea-induced postharvest tomato decay achieved through the secretion of antifungal substances, induction of tomato defense responses, and inhibition of mycelial growth of B. cinerea. These findings provide a significant contribution to the ongoing search for alternative, eco-friendly methods of controlling gray mold in fresh products. The utilization of P. protegens ML15 as a biocontrol agent could help to reduce the reliance on chemical fungicides and promote sustainable agriculture practices.

Abstract
This review covers the literature data on plant growth-promoting bacteria in soil, which can fix atmospheric nitrogen, solubilize phosphates, produce and secrete siderophores, and may exhibit several different behaviors simultaneously. We discuss perspectives for creating bacterial consortia and introducing them into the soil to increase crop productivity in agrosystems. The application of rhizosphere bacteria-which are capable of fixing nitrogen, solubilizing organic and inorganic phosphates, and secreting siderophores, as well as their consortia-has been demonstrated to meet the objectives of sustainable agriculture, such as increasing soil fertility and crop yields. The combining of plant growth-promoting bacteria with mineral fertilizers is a crucial trend that allows for a reduction in fertilizer use and is beneficial for crop production.

Abstract
Phosphate solubilizing microorganisms (PSMs) in soil have been shown to reduce mineral phosphate fertilizer supplementation and promote plant growth. Nevertheless, only several P-solubilizing microorganisms capable of solubilizing both organic and mineral sources of soil phosphorus have been identified up to now. The aim of this study was to evaluate the inorganic soil phosphate solubilizing activity of phytate-hydrolyzing Pantoea brenneri soil isolates. We showed that the strains efficiently solubilize a variety of inorganic phosphates. We optimized the media composition and culturing conditions to improve the solubilization efficiency of the strains and investigated the mechanisms of their phosphate solubilization. Through HPLC analysis, it was determined that P. brenneri produce oxalic, malic, formic, malonic, lactic, maleic, acetic, and citric acids as well as acid and alkaline phosphatases while growing on insoluble phosphate sources. Finally, we analyzed the influence of P. brenneri strains with multiple PGP-treats on plant growth in greenhouse experiments and showed their ability to promote growth of potato.
