Field Efficiency

Organic farming is gaining popularity where bio-inoculants could play a key role in promoting the growth of plants. The liquid biofertilizers concept is new to farmers and developed recently. Lots of liquid biofertilizers formulations and field efficiency were shown in the past by various researchers, but the plant growth promoting (PGP) efficiency of the liquid biofertilizers isolates were not reported till date. In the present work 6 different commercially available liquid biofertilizers were used to isolate the organism. These isolated cultures were used to study their PGP efficiency with respect to phosphate solubilization and production of EPS, IAA, siderophore, ammonia, chitinase, ACC-deaminase and HCN. The phosphate solubilization was shown up to 303 g/ml by APS isolate. EPS production was shown by using different C sources and production up to 24 g/l was shown by studied isolated. Most of the organisms studied were able to produce IAA and highest production was shown up to 20 g/ml. More than 65% studied isolates showed siderophore and ACC-deaminase production. The present study shows that the commercial liquid biofertilizer isolates possess multiple traits of plant growth promotion.

Brevibacterium frigrotolerans SMA23 is a gram positive rod shaped bacteria isolated from Aloe vera rhizosphere. 16S rRNA sequencing confirmed the identity of the bacterium as Brevibacterium frigrotolerans. It was capable of growing at temperatures ranging from 10°C to 35°C, but maximum growth was observed at 30°C. It is endowed with multiple plant growth promotion attributes such as phosphate solubilization, IAA production and siderophore production, which are expressed differentially at sub-optimal temperatures. At 10°C it was found to exhibit all the plant growth promotion attributes. This bacterial isolate was able to positively influence and promote the growth and nutrient uptake parameters of wheat (HD 2967) under glasshouse conditions.

Studies with streptomycetes in biocontrol programs and plant growth promotion are presented as technological alternatives for environmental sustainable production. This work has the objective of characterizing six isolates of streptomycetes aiming the production of extracellular enzymes, indole acetic acid, capacity for phosphate solubilization, root colonization and growth under different pH and salinity levels. For detection of enzyme activity the isolates were grown in culture media with the enzyme substrates as sole carbon source. The root colonization assay was performed on tomato seedlings grown on 0.6% water-agar medium. Growth under different pH and salinity levels was evaluated in AGS medium with 1%, 1.5%, 2%, 2.5%, and 3% NaCl, and pH levels adjusted to 5.0, 5.5, 6.0, 6.5, and 7.0. All isolates produced the enzymes amylase, catalase, and lipase, as well as indole acetic acid. With one exception (AC-92), all isolates presented cellulolytic and chitinolytic activity, and only AC-26 did not show xylanolytic activity. The isolates AC-147, AC-95, and AC-29 were the highest producers of siderophores. The isolates AC-26 and AC-29 did not show capacity for phosphate solubilization. All isolates colonized tomato roots in vitro, and AC-92 grew under all pH and salinity levels tested. The streptomycetes tested were considered as potential biocontrol and plant growth promotion agents.
