Vermicompost was prepared from leaf materials ofGliricidia sepium+Cassia auriculata+Leucaena leucocephalawith cow dung (1 : 1 : 2) usingEudrilus eugeniae(Kinberg) andEisenia fetidafor 60 days. Nineteen bacterial strains which have the capability to fix nitrogen, solubilize inorganic phosphate, and produce phytohormones were isolated from vermicompost, vermisources, and earthworm (fore, mid, and hind) guts and tested for plant growth studies. Among the bacterial strains only five strains had both activities; among the fiveBacillusspp. showed more nitrogen fixing activity andPseudomonasspp. showed more phosphate solubilizing activity. Hence these bacterial strains were selected for further molecular analysis and identifiedBacillus cereusGGBSTD1 andPseudomonasspp. GGBSTD3. Plant growth studies use these two organisms separately and as consortium (Bacillus cereus+Pseudomonasspp.) in (1 : 1) ratio at different concentrations usingVigna unguiculata(L.) Walp. at different day intervals. The germination percent, shoot length, root length, leaf area, chlorophyll a content of the leaves, chlorophyll b content of the leaves, total chlorophyll content of the leaves, fresh weight of the whole plant, and dry weight of the whole plant were significantly enhanced by the consortium (Bacillus cereus+Pseudomonasspp.) of two organisms at 5 mL concentrations on the 15th day compared to others.

Abstract. Fatmawati U, Meryandini A, Nawangsih AA, Wahyudi AT. 2019. Screening and characterization of actinomycetes isolated from soybean rhizosphere for promoting plant growth. Biodiversitas 20: 2970-2977. Actinomycetes which colonized plant rhizosphere has a vital role in improving plant growth by producing Indole-3-Acetic Acid (IAA). The aim of this study was to evaluate the potency of actinomycetes isolated from soybean rhizosphere as promoter agents for plant growth in vitro. Fifty actinomycetes isolates were successfully isolated from soybean rhizosphere. Based on the colorimetric methods, 35 isolates can produce IAA in various concentration, in the range of 0.46-30.6 mg/L. Seed germination assay using Ragdoll methods revealed that 26 isolates significantly promoted germination parameters, including the hypocotyl and the radicular length, the number of the lateral roots, and dry weight of the plant. Also, 14 from 26 isolates showed phosphate solubilizing activity in different phosphate-solubilizing index ranging from 1.25-2.62. Eight isolates were able to grow in N-free medium, indicating that these isolates have the ability in fixing nitrogen. Out of 23 from 26 isolates were detected to produce siderophore. All the tested isolates show chitinase production except ASR 55. Based on the observed parameters, it showed that there are four potential isolates (ASR 46, ASR 58, ASR 75 and ASR 76) as promising plant-growth promoters, phosphate solubilizer, nitrogen fixer, siderophore and chitinase producer. Based on the result of 16S rRNA sequence analysis, four potential isolates were identified as Streptomyces spp. in different taxa of strains and species.

Phosphate Solubilizing

Sixteen soil samples were collected from wheat, barley and yellow corn rhizosphere in Abu-Ghraib, Aqraqof, Latifieh,Tarmiah, Jadriya and  of Agriculture in Baghdad university/ Baghdad city. The results found nine phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB) isolates (Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4, Y5, Y6, Y7, Y8, Y9), formed clear zones on National Botanical Research Institute's (NBRIP) agar. The solubility index (SI) of PSB isolates ranged from 2.00 to 3.66. Y4 have the highest SI (3.66) followed by Y3 and Y6 (3.33). Phosphate solubilization abilities varying from (20.10-39.00 μg.ml-1), Y4 was the highest (39.00 μg.ml-1) followed by Y3 (37.00μg.ml-1). The results of hydrolytic enzymes production showed that almost all nine isolates are able to produce protease and pectinase, while Y1 and Y2 showed negative results in cellulase production. Maximum ability for hydrogen cyanide (HCN) and indole acetic acid (IAA) production were showed byY3 and Y4 isolates. The isolate Y4 was found to be the most efficient isolate, so it was selected identified as Bacillus cereus using biochemical tests confirmed by VITEC 2 compact system. The results of High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) revealed that Bacillus cereus produce oxalic acid (2.996), citric acid (9.117) and malic acid (3.734). Bacillus cereus (Y4) enhanced the growth of mung bean plants. A significant increase in branches number (12.33), plant length (83.0cm), fresh weight (27.25 g) and dry weight (1.427g) were obtained compared with control treatments. The main objective of this study is to isolate PSB and evaluate their roles in plant growth promotion. The results showed the high phosphate solubilization efficiency of PSB isolates and the identified isolates was found to be good enough for plant growth promoting.

Phosphate Solubilizing

Phosphorus (P) is one of the essential macronutrients needed for the plant growth, other than nitrogen and potassium. Most phosphorus remains as insoluble form in soils and the plants only can uptake the phosphorus nutrient in soluble forms. Phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB) dissolves the phosphorus and make it available for plants. In this study, Soil samples were collected and screened for PSB on PK medium. PSB colonies with the highest phosphate solubilization ability were chosen and used for studying its rhizosphere effect on Capsicum frutescens by pot experiment.. It was evidenced that selected PSB strain could solubilize phosphate in PK medium and modified PK broth. Besides, it provided available phosphorus for plants and enhanced the plant growth in pot experiment.

Phosphate Solubilizing

Phosphorus is a major essential macronutrient for plant growth, and most of the phosphorus in soil remains in insoluble form. Highly efficient phosphate-solubilizing bacteria can be used to increase phosphorus in the plant rhizosphere. In this study, 13 isolates were obtained from waste mushroom residues, which were composed of cotton seed hulls, corn cob, biogas residues, and wood flour. NBRIP solid medium was used for isolation according to the dissolved phosphorus halo. Eight isolates produced indole acetic acid (61.5%), and six isolates produced siderophores (46.2%). Three highest phosphate-dissolving bacterial isolates, namely, M01, M04, and M11, were evaluated for their beneficial effects on the early growth of tomato plants (Solanum lycopersicum L. Wanza 15). Strains M01, M04, and M11 significantly increased the shoot dry weight by 30.5%, 32.6%, and 26.2%, and root dry weight by 27.1%, 33.1%, and 25.6%, respectively. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons and phylogenetic positions, strains M01 and M04 belonged to the genus Acinetobacter, and strain M11 belonged to the genus Ochrobactrum. The findings suggest that waste mushroom residues are a potential resource of plant growth-promoting bacteria exhibiting satisfactory phosphate-solubilizing for sustainable agriculture.

Phosphorous Compounds

Phosphorous (P) is an essential macronutrient and most soils contain high levels of P. However, its availability to plant is limited by rapid immobilization of phosphorous compounds to insoluble forms and hence plant available forms of P in soils are found in low amounts. Phosphate solubilizing bacteria provide an eco-friendly alternative to convert insoluble phosphates into plant available forms. In the present study, three phosphate solubilizing bacterial isolates (PB-1, PB-4 and VC-01) with visually significant phosphate solubilizing abilities were isolated from tomato rhizosphere soil. In-vitro study in pikovskaya’s agar revealed that isolate PB-1 had the highest phosphate solubilizing ability with a phosphate solubilizing index of 2.08±0.07 followed by isolate VC-01 (1.31±0.09) and PB-4 (1.24±0.08). Isolates were used as bacterial inoculum to assess their ability to promote tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum var. Srijana) seedling and plant growth in in-vitro and greenhouse experiment respectively. Isolate PB-4 showed best growth promotion in seedling assay whereas isolate PB-1 and VC-01 also promoted seedling growth compared to control. In greenhouse experiment however, isolates VC-01 and PB-1 significantly enhanced all parameters (shoot length, root length, shoot and root dry weight) compared to uninoculated control whereas isolate PB-4 had a positive effect on all parameters except root length.Kathmandu University Journal of Science, Engineering and TechnologyVol. 13, No. 2, 2017, page: 61-70

In this study the plant growth-promoting bacteria were analysed for their growth-stimulating effects on two wheat cultivars. The investigations were carried out in pot experiments using calcareous soil. The results showed that bacterial strains Pseudomonas spp. NUU1 and P. fluorescens NUU2 were able to colonize the rhizosphere of both wheat cultivars. Their plant growth-stimulating abilities were affected by wheat cultivars. The bacterial strains Pseudomonas sp. NUU1 and P. fluorescens NUU2 significantly stimulated the shoot and root length and dry weight of wheat cv. Turon, whereas cv. Residence was less affected by bacterial inoculation. The results of our study suggest that inoculation of wheat with Pseudomonas strains can improve plant growth in calcareous soil and it depends upon wheat cultivars. Prior to a selection of good bacterial inoculants, it is recommended to select cultivars that benefit from association with these bacteria.

In this study, we aimed at examining the potential to stimulate growth in Pennisetum clandestinum using four isolated bacterial strains from soils obtained from a Colombian tropical silvopastoral system. We previously identified genetically the strains and characterized two plant growth promotion activities. We found that the four bacterial strains were phylogenetically associated with Klebsiella sp. (strains 28P and 35P), Beijerinka sp. (37L) and Achromobacter xylosoxidans (E37), based on partial 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Moreover, the in vitro biochemical assays demonstrated that the strains exhibited some plant growth promotion mechanisms such as 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid deaminase activity and indole compound synthesis. Notably, bacterial inoculation under greenhouse conditions showed a positive influence on P. clandestinum growth. We found a significant (p < 0.05) effect on root and shoot length, and shoot dry weight. Shoot length increased by 52% and 30% with 37L and 35P, respectively, compared to those without inoculation treatment. Similarly, the use of 37L and 28P raised shoot dry weight values by 170% and 131%, respectively. In root development, inoculation with strains 37L and E37 increased root length by 134% and 100%, respectively. Beijerinckia sp. 37L was the most effective of the four strains at increasing P. clandestinum biomass and length.
