The spore-forming Bacillus and cysts forming Azotobacter are Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria which has been used as biofertilizer in sustainable agriculture since they tolerant to dried soil. Drought resistant microbes will be useful to coat urea in order to reduce the lost of nitrogen. The objectives of this preliminary study were to study the effect of molasse based liquid media on the population of Bacillus spore and Azotobacter vegetative cell and to determine the composition of four bacterial species in liquid formula. In the first experiment The Bacillus subtilis, B. megaterium, A. chroococcum and A. vinelandii were grown separately in 1% cane molasses enriched with 0.1% NH4Cl. As control treatment, The Bacillus and Azotobacter were grown in Nutrient Broth and Ashby’s mannitol broth respectively. In the second experiment, different composition of said Bacillus and Azotobacter were grown in molasses based liquid media prior to count the spore and vegetative cell. The results showed that molasses-based media supported bacterial growth and initial ratio 1:1:1:1 of liquid inoculant was effective to increase bacterial growth. This experiment suggested that the use of organic based media was useful practice of liquid biofertilizer formulation for granule urea coating.

The continuity of traditional planting systems in the last few decades has encountered its most significant challenge in the harsh changes in the global climate, leading to frustration in the plant growth and productivity, especially in the arid and semi-arid regions cultivated with moderate or sensitive crops to abiotic stresses. Faba bean, like most legume crops, is considered a moderately sensitive crop to saline soil and/or saline water. In this connection, a field experiment was conducted during the successive winter seasons 2018/2019 and 2019/2020 in a salt-affected soil to explore the combined effects of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) and potassium (K) silicate on maintaining the soil quality, performance, and productivity of faba bean plants irrigated with either fresh water or saline water. Our findings indicated that the coupled use of PGPR and K silicate under the saline water irrigation treatment had the capability to reduce the levels of exchangeable sodium percentage (ESP) in the soil and to promote the activity of some soil enzymes (urease and dehydrogenase), which recorded nearly non-significant differences compared with fresh water (control) treatment, leading to reinstating the soil quality. Consequently, under salinity stress, the combined application motivated the faba bean vegetative growth, e.g., root length and nodulation, which reinstated the K+/Na+ ions homeostasis, leading to the lessening or equalizing of the activity level of enzymatic antioxidants (CAT, POD, and SOD) compared with the controls of both saline water and fresh water treatments, respectively. Although the irrigation with saline water significantly increased the osmolytes concentration (free amino acids and proline) in faba bean plants compared with fresh water treatment, application of PGPR or K-silicate notably reduced the osmolyte levels below the control treatment, either under stress or non-stress conditions. On the contrary, the concentrations of soluble assimilates (total soluble proteins and total soluble sugars) recorded pronounced increases under tested treatments, which enriched the plant growth, the nutrients (N, P, and K) uptake and translocation to the sink organs, which lastly improved the yield attributes (number of pods plant−1, number of seeds pod−1, 100-seed weight). It was concluded that the combined application of PGPR and K-silicate is considered a profitable strategy that is able to alleviate the harmful impact of salt stress alongside increasing plant growth and productivity.

AbstractThe cabbage aphid, Brevicoryne brassicae L. (Hem: Aphididae), is an important pest of canola that can considerably limit profitable crop production either through direct feeding or via transmission of plant pathogenic viruses. One of the most effective approaches of pest control is the use of biostimulants. In this study, the effects of humic acid, plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), and integrated application of both compounds were investigated on life table parameters of B. brassicae, and the tolerance of canola to this pest. B. brassicae reared on plants treated with these compounds had the lower longevity, fecundity, and reproductive period compared with control treatment. The intrinsic rate of natural increase (r) and finite rate of increase (λ) were lowest on PGPR treatment (0.181 ± 0.004 day−1 and 1.198 ± 0.004 day−1, respectively) and highest on control (0.202 ± 0.005 day−1 and 1.224 ± 0.006 day−1, respectively). The net reproductive rate (R0) under treatments of humic acid, PGPR and humic acid + PGPR was lower than control. There was no significant difference in generation time (T) of B. brassicae among the tested treatments. In the tolerance test, plants treated with PGPR alone or in integrated with humic acid had the highest tolerance against B. brassicae. The highest values of total phenol, flavonoids, and glucosinolates were observed in treatments of PGPR and humic acid + PGPR. Basing on the antibiosis and tolerance analyses in this study, we concluded that canola plants treated with PGPR are more resistant to B. brassicae. These findings could be useful for integrated pest management of B. brassicae in canola fields.

The aim of the present study was to isolate plant-beneficial bacteria (both Rhizobium and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria) from roots and nodules of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) and to study the effect of coinoculations on growth of two cultivars of chickpea. Four Rhizobium strains were obtained from roots and four from the nodules of field-grown chickpea cv. Parbat and identified on the basis of morphological characteristics, and biochemical and infectivity tests on the host seedlings. Only one type of nitrogen and carbon source utilisation pattern and DNA banding pattern of random amplified polymorphic DNA was observed in all isolates (Rn1, Rn2, Rn3, Rn4) from nodules, while two types of such patterns were detected among the isolates from roots. The isolate Rr1 from roots also exhibited a pattern identical to those of the isolates from nodules, whereas the remaining three isolates (Rr2, Rr3 and Rr4) from roots showed a different pattern. Two strains of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria belonging to genus Enterobacter were also isolated from chickpea roots. All the Rhizobium strains and Enterobacter strains produced the plant growth hormones indole acetic acid and gibberellic acid in the growth medium. Effects of the bacterial isolates as single- or double-strain inocula were studied on two chickpea cultivars (NIFA 88 and Parbat) grown in sterilised soil. In cultivar NIFA 88, coinoculation of Rhizobium strain Rn1 with Enterobacter strain B resulted in maximum increase in plant biomass and nodulation, as compared with the control treatment (non-inoculated as well as inoculated with Rhizobium strain Rn1 only), whereas the combination of Rhizobium Rn1 with Enterobacter A was more efficient in growth promotion of chickpea cv. Parbat. In non-sterilised soil, the same combinations of the Rhizobium strain Rn1 with Enterobacter strains A and B were found to be the most effective inoculants for cvv. Parbat and NIFA 88, respectively. However, some negative effects on plant growth were also noted in cv. Parbat coinoculated with Rhizobium strain Rr2 and Enterobacter strain B.

Dramatic Shift

Both above- and below-ground parts of plants are constantly confronted with microbes, which are main drivers for the development of plant-microbe interactions. Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria enhance the immunity of above-ground tissues, which is known as induced systemic resistance (ISR). We show here that ISR also influences the leaf microbiome. We compared ISR triggered by the model strain Pseudomonas simiae WCS417r (WCS417) to that triggered by Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis (Bti) in Arabidopsis thaliana. In contrast to earlier findings, immunity elicited by both strains depended on salicylic acid. Both strains further relied on MYC2 for signal transduction in the plant, while WCS417-elicited ISR additionally depended on SAR-associated metabolites, including pipecolic acid. A metabarcoding approach applied to the leaf microbiome revealed a significant ISR-associated enrichment of amplicon sequence variants with predicted plant growth-promoting properties. WCS417 caused a particularly dramatic shift in the leaf microbiota with more than 50% of amplicon reads representing two bacterial species: WCS417 and Flavobacterium sp.. Co-inoculation experiments using WCS417 and At-LSPHERE Flavobacterium sp. Leaf82, suggest that the proliferation of these bacteria is influenced by both microbial and plant-derived factors. Together, our data connect systemic immunity with leaf microbiome dynamics and highlight the importance of plant-microbe-microbe interactions for plant health.

This study was conducted in order to determine the effects of oxygen enrichment of nutrient solution coupled with plant growth promoting rhizobacteria on soilless grown iceberg lettuce (cv. ‘Papiro’) production. Seeds were treated with Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas putida, P. fluorescens, P. punonensis and combined application of B. subtilis + P. fluorescens and were sown into vermicompost : peat (1 : 1.5, v/v) mixture on January 14th, 2015. After germination in growth chamber, seedlings were moved to a greenhouse for seedling growing till they were ready for planting. Seedlings were transplanted to the polyethylene greenhouse 35 days after sowing. Perlite as growing medium was used in open-system soilless culture. Nutrient solution was aerated with an air compressor and applied to plants 2 days after planting with drip irrigation. To diffuse oxygen into nutrient solution in large bubbles, a circular air-stone commonly used in fisheries was used. The nutrient solution without oxyfertigation and plants not treated with bacteria constituted the control treatment. Experiments were conducted in randomized plots design with 2 factors and 3 replications. Heads were harvested 2 months after transplanting. Yield and head quality parameters of head were determined. It was concluded that oxygen enrichment of nutrient solution through a compressor (aeration) provided increases in yield and plant growth. Especially root development, head size and leaf number were higher in plants grown with aerated nutrient solution. Among the tested bacteria, B. subtilis, P. fluorescens and B. subtilis + P. fluorescens were found promising due to the their higher performance under aerated conditions on greenhouse lettuce grown in perlite.

The load and diversity of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are used as biomarkers to evaluate the health and quality of the soil. In the present study, the diversity of PGPRs and the physicochemical properties of the soil were used as comparative biomarkers in two adjacent soils (a pine forest soil and an agricultural soil) of the same region in Mexico City in order to investigate the effects of land use change. Bacterial diversity and physicochemical properties differed between the two soils. In the pine forest soil, PGPR were distributed at similar proportions in the Proteobacteria (29.41%), Actinobacteria (29.41%) and Firmicutes (35.29%) phyla, whereas the remaining PGPR were in Bacteroidetes (5.88%). In the agricultural soil, most PGPR belonged to the Phylum Firmicutes (50%), with the remaining belonging to Proteobacteria (22.73%), Actinobacteria (18.18%) and Bacteroidetes (9.09%). Percentages of bacteria producing indole acetic acid (90.91%) and siderophores (40.91%) were higher in agricultural soil. A canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) was used to correlate PGPR with the physicochemical characteristics of the soils. The CCA revealed that differences between both soils and the physicochemical properties of the soils affected isolated bacterial species and their distribution. These results demonstrate that the PGPR are correlated with the physicochemical properties of the soil, exhibiting differences between an agricultural soil and a pine forest soil.

Objective: To evaluate the effect of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) on the growth and production of habanero pepper (Capsicum chinense Jacq.). Design/Methodology/Approach: Twelve strains of PGPR were evaluated in habanero pepper seeds of the orange variety. The species of PGPR were Rhizobium leguminosarum: (CP Méx 46), Pseudomonas spp: (P fluorescens, C2, A7, A9, A9m, Avm); Azospirillum, (Sp7, Sp 59, UAP 40, UAP154), plus a control treatment, giving a total of 13 treatments. The study variables were seedling emergence (SE), plant height (PH), white fruit incidence (WFI), virotic plants (VP), days to flowering (DF) and fresh fruit yield (FFY). The experimental design was random blocks with four repetitions. Results: An effect on the growth of habanero pepper from PGPRs was found in all the variables studied. Seedling emergence and their height was favored by strains Sp9 (84.16%) and A7 (73.44). The number of white flies decreased with the inoculation of CP Méx 46, while the incidence of virosis decreased in plants inoculated with SP9 (32.00%). The highest yield of fresh fruit was found in plants with the strain AVM with 16636 kg ha-1. Findings/Conclusions: The effect of inoculation with PGPR is in function of the strain used and the study variable, growth stage and development stage of the habanero pepper plant.
