AMF和PGPR对生姜青枯病的影响

丛枝菌根真菌(Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi,AMF)与植物根围促生细菌(Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria,PGPR)占据相近的生态位,对植物病原物及其所致病害的发生与发展具有重要影响。本试验旨在于温室盆栽条件下探索AMF摩西管柄囊霉(Funneliformis mosseae,Fm)、根内球囊霉(Glomus intraradices,Gi)和地表球囊霉(Glomus versiforme,Gv)与PGPR假单胞菌(Pseudomonus sp.)S1-10菌株和S3-11菌株的相互作用及其对生姜(Zingiber officinale)青枯病(Ralstonia solanacearum,RS1)的影响。试验结果表明Gv显著增加假单胞菌S3-11菌株在生姜根围的定殖数量(P0.05),除生姜幼苗期外Fm则能促进S3-11菌株和S1-10菌株在根围内的定殖。PGPR S1-10和S3-11显著促进发棵期和块茎膨大期生姜AMF的侵染;发棵期S1-10显著提高了Gi的侵染率,但显著降低了Gv的侵染率(P0.05);块茎膨大期S3-11对Gv侵染(64%)的促进作用最大。AMF或/和PGPR(除S1-10外)接种处理均不同程度地促进了生姜的生长,其中Gv+S3-11组合处理的生姜生长量最大,其次为Fm+S3-11组合。无论是单接种还是双接种,供试PGPR和AMF均显著提高叶片防御性酶超氧物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化物酶(POD)、苯丙氨酸(PAL)和过氧化氢酶(CAT)活性,降低丙二醛(MDA)含量和生姜青枯病的病情指数,其中,以Gv+S3-11组合处理的病情指数最低(25.5),且防效最高(71%)。研究结果表明AMF地表球囊霉与PGPR假单胞菌S3-11菌株组合能够相互促进、协同抑制生姜青枯病菌、诱导生姜抗病性、促进生姜生和增加产量,是适宜生姜生长的优良AMF+PGPR组合。     

混合盐碱胁迫下接种丛枝菌根真菌和根瘤菌对紫花苜蓿生长的影响

随着气候变化,全球土壤盐碱化严重威胁着农牧业生产和生态环境的建设。土壤盐化与碱化常常伴随发生,目前多数研究侧重于盐胁迫,忽略了碱胁迫的存在。实际上,碱性盐除了盐度外还伴随着高p H。由此,试图探讨混合盐碱胁迫下接种丛枝菌根真菌(AMF)和根瘤菌对紫花苜蓿生长的影响及其作用机理。根据中国盐碱地的特点,将4种盐(Na Cl、Na_2SO_4、Na_2CO_3、Na HCO_3)按一定比例混合模拟出16种混合盐碱(盐浓度25—150 mmol/L,p H 7.67—10.52)胁迫浓度,按照L_(16)(16~1×2~2)混合正交设计,采用盆栽法研究了混合盐碱胁迫下接种AMF摩西管柄囊霉(Funneliformis mosseae)和根瘤菌(Sinorhizobium meliloti)对紫花苜蓿生长及生理的影响。结果表明:对紫花苜蓿株高的影响程度依次是AMF+根瘤菌pHAMF盐碱类型根瘤菌;对地上生物量、地下生物量、茎高净增长量、丙二醛(MDA)及脯氨酸影响程度依次是p HAMF+根瘤菌盐碱类型AMF根瘤菌;对超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)的影响程度依次是p HAMF+根瘤菌盐碱类型AMF根瘤菌;对过氧化物酶(POD)影响程度依次是p HAMF+根瘤菌根瘤菌AMF盐碱类型;对蛋白质的影响程度依次是p H盐碱类型根瘤菌AMF+根瘤菌=AMF。株高、地下生物量、POD均在双接种的处理下出现最大值。本研究证明:盐碱混合胁迫会严重抑制植物的生长发育;而接种AMF和/或根瘤菌均可有效缓解盐碱胁迫对植物造成的伤害,提高植物对盐碱的耐受能力;且同时接种AMF及根瘤菌效果最好,其次是单独接种AMF,单独接种根瘤菌作用相对最小。

四种除草剂对根瘤菌、AMF等土壤微生物的影响

本文采用盆栽试验, 研究4种除草剂在大田常规剂量下, 对根际土壤微生物和土著根瘤菌、AMF与苗期大豆共生的影响。结果表明, 除草剂对V2期大豆根际土壤中真菌数量和V3期细菌数量的抑制作用显著, 对V2和V3期AMF的侵染率、V3期根瘤数量影响显著。除草剂对土壤中真菌数量的负面影响可能是抑制菌根形成的重要因素, 对菌根形成产生的抑制可能会进一步导致根瘤形成受到抑制。     

玉米根际高效溶磷菌的筛选、鉴定及促生效应研究

为获得玉米根际高效溶磷促生菌(Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria,PGPR)并明确其促生特性,采用选择培养方法从玉米根际土壤筛选出优良PGPR 菌株,测定其溶磷及分泌吲哚乙酸(IAA)的能力,并对优良菌株进行鉴定;采用盆栽试验研究菌株的促生作用。结果分离到2 株优良PGPR 菌株CH07和FD11,其溶磷量分别为368.5 mg/L和321.5 mg/L,产IAA量分别为30.93 mg/L和15.93 mg/L。形态学特征、生理生化特征和16S rDNA 序列分析结果表明,CH07为芽孢杆菌属(Bacillus aryabhattai),FD11为链霉菌属(Streptomyces maritimus)。最后通过盆栽试验对这2株细菌分离物的促生效果进行比较,结果发现,CH07、FD11,尤其是CH07与FD11的复合物,对苋菜的株高及地上部鲜重有积极作用,可作为研制生物肥料的优良菌株资源。     

Agrobacterium strains isolated from root nodules of common bean specifically reduce nodulation by Rhizobium gallicum

In a previous work, we showed that non-nodulating agrobacteria strains were able to colonize root nodules of common bean. Both rhizobia and agrobacteria co-existed in the infected nodules. No impact on symbiosis was found in laboratory conditions when using sterile gravel as a support for growth. In this study, soil samples originating from different geographic and agronomic regions in Tunisia were inoculated with a mixture of agrobacteria strains isolated previously from root nodules of common bean. A significant effect on nodulation and vegetal growth of common bean was observed. Characterization of nodulating rhizobia and comparison with non-inoculated controls showed a biased genetic structure. It seemed that Rhizobium gallicum was highly inhibited, whereas nodulation by Sinorhizobium medicae was favored. Co-inoculation of non-sterile soils with R. gallicum and agrobacteria confirmed these findings. In vitro antibiosis assays indicated that agrobacteria exercised a significant antagonism against R. gallicum.     

紫云英根瘤菌胞外多糖缺失变种及其结瘤性状的变化

根据紫云英根瘤菌在寄主豆科植物紫云英上的结瘤能力,经转座子Tn5诱变获得的18株Exo~-变种可分为4种结瘤类群(A-D):A类变种诱导植物产生小的瘤状突起,不具固氮能力;B类变种形成无效根瘤;C类变种产生固氮效率降低的根瘤;D类变种丧失了结瘤能力。电镜分析显示:无效瘤和瘤状突起中不存在类菌体区,根瘤细胞均为不含细菌的空细胞,侵染线不能穿透到根瘤细胞中。说明紫云英根瘤菌胞外多糖很可能参与有效根瘤的形成。     

钙离子对紫花苜蓿及苜蓿根瘤菌耐酸能力的影响

土壤酸性是阻碍苜蓿根瘤菌与其宿主紫花苜蓿之间高效共生固氮的重要环境因子.本文研究了Ca2 对紫花苜蓿及苜蓿根瘤菌耐酸能力的影响.结果表明:加入一定浓度的Ca2 (5和10mmol·L-1)能提高苜蓿根瘤菌的生长速率,使苜蓿根瘤菌提前进入对数生长期.中性pH条件下,Ca2 的加入对苜蓿根毛变形率无显著影响;低pH条件下,加入2、5和10mmol·L-1的Ca2 均可提高根毛变形率,Ca2 浓度越高,其影响越显著,说明低pH下Ca2 可能会促进苜蓿根瘤菌与其宿主之间的识别.低pH条件下加入Ca2 可以使苜蓿结瘤提前,结瘤率提高;结瘤动力学检测结果表明,加入一定浓度的Ca2 可以使同期结瘤数增加,越是结瘤后期,环境pH越低,这种表现越明显.     

The effectiveness of some Indonesian strains of Rhizobium on four tropical legumes

Nodules were collected from 14 legume species from the Indonesian Islands of South Sulawesi, Java and Sumatra. Their rhizobia were isolated and growth characteristics, nodulation ability and nitrogen fixing effectiveness were assessed against recommended commercially available Australian strains. The test legumes wereMacroptilium atropurpureum Urb. cv. Siratro,Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp. cv Eureka,Centrosema pubescens Benth cv. Belalto andDesmodium heterocarpon (L) DC. A significant portion of the native rhizobial isolates were of the fast growing type. Dry matter and total nitrogen production forM. atropurpureum andV. unguiculata was highest when inoculated with native strains while the commerical strains produced superior dry matter production forC. pubescens andD. heterocarpon. However the total nitrogen production of native and commercial strains was not significantly different for the latter two legumes. The study indicated that a potential exists for developing inocula from local Rhizobium strains.     

Correlation between NaCl Sensitivity of Rhizobium Bacteria and Ineffective Nodulation of Leguminous Plants

A sodium chloride (NaCl)-sensitive mutant of Rhizobium fredii USDA191, which contained a single copy of Tn5-Mob transposed into chromosomal DNA, was obtained by Tn5-Mob random insertion. The growth rate of this mutant was lower than that of the wild type in the presence of 0.2 M NaCl and it seemed to lack the inductive ATP production in response to the addition of NaCl. This mutant induced the formation of small and whitish nodules on lateral roots of soybeans, which were negative for acetylene reduction activity, indicating that the nodules were ineffective for nitrogen fixation. The mutant also reduced the weight of above-ground portions and roots to 64 and 55%, respectively, compared with the weight of the plants inoculated with the wild-type cells. These results suggest that NaCl sensitivity of Rhizobium bacteria is one of the important factors for nodule formation and nitrogen fixation.     

The influence of Rhizobium and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on nitrogen and phosphorus accumulation by Vicia faba

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of the interactions between the microbial symbionts, Rhizobium and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on N and P accumulation by broad bean (Vicia faba) and how increased N and P content influence biomass production, leaf area and net photosynthetic rate. METHODS: A multi-factorial experiment consisting of four different legume-microbial symbiotic associations and two nitrogen treatments was used to investigate the influence of the different microbial symbiotic associations on P accumulation, total N accumulation, biomass, leaf area and net photosynthesis in broad bean grown under low P conditions. KEY RESULTS: AMF promoted biomass production and photosynthetic rates by increasing the ratio of P to N accumulation. An increase in P was consistently associated with an increase in N accumulation and N productivity, expressed in terms of biomass and leaf area. Photosynthetic N use efficiency, irrespective of the inorganic source of N (e.g. NO3- or N2), was enhanced by increased P supply due to AMF. The presence of Rhizobium resulted in a significant decline in AMF colonization levels irrespective of N supply. Without Rhizobium, AMF colonization levels were higher in low N treatments. Presence or absence of AMF did not have a significant effect on nodule mass but high N with or without AMF led to a significant decline in nodule biomass. Plants with the Rhizobium and AMF symbiotic associations had higher photosynthetic rates per unit leaf area. CONCLUSIONS: The results indicated that the synergistic or additive interactions among the components of the tripartite symbiotic association (Rhizobium-AMF-broad bean) increased plant productivity.     

Survival of several <Emphasis Type="Italic">Rhizobium/Bradyrhizobium</Emphasis> strains on different inoculant formulations and inoculated seeds

The effect of a variety factors on the survival of several rhizobia strains on inoculants and inoculated seeds has been evaluated. Since the rhizobia strains showed different cell-density-evolution patterns on peat-based inoculants and on inoculated seeds, several inoculant formulations with highly effective Rhizobium/Bradyrhizobium strains (for Lupinus, Hedysarum, Phaseolus and Glycine max.) were monitored under the following storage conditions: (a) the inoculants were kept refrigerated (at 4 °C), or (b) at room temperature (25 °C). The effect of water content (30–50%, w/w) in the inoculants as well as that of several seed-coating adhesives were also investigated. Alternative carriers including perlite and vermiculite were tested. For all of the strains, survival on sterile peat-based inoculants was higher than on the corresponding unsterile peat formulation; for the latter, refrigerated storage conditions are recommended to ensure high bacterial densities. The water content of the inoculants had a differential effect on strain survival depending on the sterility of the peat, such that a high water content was more detrimental when unsterilized peat was employed. The best adherent for rhizobia survival was a gum arabic/water solution. Perlite was as effective as peat in maintaining a high population of rhizobia, at least for 6 months of storage.

Effect of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria containing ACC-deaminase on maize (Zea mays L.) growth under axenic conditions and on nodulation in mung bean (Vigna radiata L.)

AIMS: This study was conducted to test the hypothesis that the bacterial strains possessing 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC)-deaminase activity may also promote growth of inoculated plants and could increase nodulation in legumes upon co-inoculation with rhizobia. METHODS AND RESULTS: Several rhizobacteria were isolated from maize rhizosphere through enrichment on ACC as a sole N source. Purified isolates were screened for growth promotion in maize under axenic conditions and for in vitro ACC-deaminase activity. A significant positive correlation was observed between in vitro ACC-deaminase activity of bacterial cells and root elongation. None of the isolates produced auxins. Bradyrhizobium japonicum produced less amount of auxins but did not carry ACC-deaminase activity. Results of pot experiment revealed that co-inoculation with Bradyrhizobium and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) isolates enhanced the nodulation in mung bean compared with inoculation with Bradyrhizobium alone. CONCLUSIONS: It is highly expected that inoculation with rhizobacteria containing ACC-deaminase hydrolysed endogenous ACC into ammonia and alpha-ketobutyrate instead of ethylene. Consequently, root and shoot growth as well as nodulation were promoted. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The ACC-deaminase trait could be employed as an efficient tool to screen effective PGPR, which could be successfully used as biofertilizers to increase the growth of inoculated plants as well as nodulation in legumes.
