桑树内生拮抗细菌Burkholderia cepacia Lu10-1的分离鉴定及其内生定殖

目的]对从健康桑树叶片中分离到的一株内生拮抗细菌Lu10-1进行鉴定,并探讨该菌株在桑树体内的定殖.方法]通过形态观察、生理生化指标测定及16S rRNA基因序列同源性分析,结合recA基因特异引物PCR检测法对菌株Lu10-1进行分类学鉴定;以抗利福平(Rif)和氨苄青霉素(Amp)双抗药性为标记,采用浸种、浸根、涂叶和针刺等方法接种,测定Lu10-1菌株在桑树体内的定殖.结果]结果表明,菌株Lu10-1属于伯克霍尔德氏菌属(Burkholderia),与亲缘关系较近菌株B.cepacia(X80284)的同源性达98%,该菌株的16S rDNA序列已在GenBank中注册,登录号为EF546394;Lu10-1菌株浸种接种后,菌株在桑苗组织中的数量总体上呈现下降趋势,到第20天后菌量趋于稳定;细菌浸根接种后,菌株在茎叶部定殖的菌量均呈现出"先增后降"的趋势.结论]内生拮抗细菌Lu10-1归属于洋葱伯克霍尔德氏菌基因型Ⅰ(Burkholderia cepacia genomovar Ⅰ);该菌株可在桑树体内长期定殖并传导,且在定殖过程中菌株的拮抗性能未改变;为将该菌株导入桑树体内进行病害的生物防治提供了理论依据.

Identification and colonization of an antagonistic endophytic Burkholderia cepacia Lu10-1 isolated from mulberry

OBJECTIVE: To identify and colonize an antagonistic bacterium, Lu10-1, isolated from the healthy mulberry. METHODS: Strain Lu10-1 was identified based on the analysis of its 16S rRNA gene sequence homology, the physiological and biochemical characteristics, and the recA gene sequence comparison. A spontaneous Lu10-1 mutant tolerant to rifampicin and ampicillin were isolated by gradually increasing the concentration of the two antibiotics. The mutants were used to assess the ability of Lu10-1 to colonize mulberry by different inoculation approaches, including stem and leaf acupuncturing, seed soaking, root soaking and leaf daubing. RESULTS: Lu10-1 belonged to Burkholderia. In the phylogenetic tree, Lu10-1 was the closest relative to B. cepacia (X80284) with more than 98% sequences similarity. The 16S rDNA sequences of Lu10-1 have been registered at GenBank database under the accession number EF546394. Moreover, our results also indicated that the population of strain Lu10-1 living in the mulberry tissues decreased as a whole after the treatment of seed soaking. The bacterial density inside the mulberry seedling tissues decreased to a steady level 20 days after germination. The population of strain Lu10-1 in mulberry leaves and stems after the treatment of root soaking increased first and then decreased. CONCLUSION: The strain Lu10-1 fell into Burkholderia cepacia genomovar I as a single species. Furthermore, the strain Lu10-1 could colonize and transmit in mulberry, while its resistance to plant pathogen was not changed during the process of colonization compared to the original strains. Taken together, we suggest that Burkholderia. cepacia Lu10-1 will play an important role in the biological control of mulberry disease.
