嗜麦芽寡养单胞菌PX1的降解芘特性及定殖效能

为丰富多环芳烃降解菌菌种库、降低农作物的污染风险,本研究对一株可高效降解多环芳烃(PAHs)的植物内生菌进行筛选鉴定,并初步探究其降解途径以及定殖效能。结果表明: 菌株PX1为嗜麦芽寡养单胞菌。该菌株对多环芳烃的降解具有广谱性,7 d几乎可彻底降解PAH无机盐培养基中的萘,在分别含有50.0 mg·L^-1菲、20.0 mg·L^-1芘、20.0 mg·L^-1荧蒽和10.0 mg·L^-1苯并a]芘的培养体系中,对菲、芘、荧蒽、苯并a]芘的降解率分别为72.6%、50.7%、31.9%和12.9%。选取芘作为PAHs模型研究菌株PX1的降解特性。酶活性试验表明,芘可诱导菌株PX1体内邻苯二甲酸双加氧酶、邻苯二酚-1,2-双加氧酶和邻苯二酚-2,3-双加氧酶的活性。在芘降解过程中检测到4,5-环氧化芘、4,5-二羟基芘、龙胆酸/原茶儿酸、水杨酸、顺-己二烯二酸/2-羟粘糠酸半醛、顺-2′-羧基苯丙酮酸、1-羟基-2-萘甲酸、水杨醛等中间产物。浸种定殖试验表明,菌株PX1可高效定殖到空心菜和小麦体内,显著促进空心菜和小麦生长,并能够将空心菜、小麦体内及其生长基质中的芘浓度分别降低29.8%～50.7%、52.4%～67.1%和8.0%～15.3%。表明菌株PX1主要通过“水杨酸途径”和“邻苯二甲酸途径”降解芘,且可以定殖到植物体内,促进植物生长。

Colonization performance and pyrene degradation characteristics of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia PX1

We screened and identified an endophytic bacterium that could efficiently degrade PAHs, which would expand the library of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) degrading microorganisms and reduce the pollution risk of crops. Its degradation mechanism and colonization performance were preliminarily examined. The results showed that strain PX1 belonged to Stenotrophomonas maltophilia. The strain had broad spectrum ability to remove PAHs. In PAH mineral salt (MS) media, almost 100% naphthalene was degraded by strain PX1 after 7-d incubation. In a cultivation system solely containing phenanthrene of 50.0 mg·L^-1, pyrene of 20.0 mg·L^-1, fluoranthene of 20.0 mg·L^-1 or benzoa]pyrene of 10.0 mg·L^-1, the degradation efficiency of phenanthrene, pyrene, fluoranthene and benzoa]pyrene by strain PX1 reached 72.6%, 50.7%, 31.9%, and 12.9%, respectively. Pyrene was selected as PAHs model to study the degradation characteristics of strain PX1. Enzyme activity tests showed that the activities of phthalate dioxygenase, catechol-1,2-dioxygenase, and catechol-2,3-dioxygenase in strain PX1 were induced by pyrene. Some metabolic intermediates such as 4,5-epoxypyrene, 4,5-dihydroxypyrene, gentilic acid/protocatechuic acid, salicylic acid, cis-hexadienedioic acid/2-hydroxymyxofuroic acid semialdehyde, cis-2′-carboxyphenylpyruvic acid, 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid, and salicylaldehyde were detected during the degradation of pyrene by strain PX1. Results of the seed soaking experiment showed that strain PX1 could efficiently colonize in Ipomoea aquatic and Triticum aestivum. After inoculated with strain PX1, the growth of I. aquatic and T. aestivum was significantly increased, and the pyrene concentration in I. aquatic, T. aestivum and MS media was reduced by 29.8%-50.7%, 52.4%-67.1% and 8.0%-15.3%, respectively. Our results suggested that strain PX1 degraded pyrene mainly through ‘salicylate pathway’ and ‘phthalate pathway’, and could be colonized into plants and promote plant growth.
