Mutual interactions between plant and rhizosphere bacteria facilitate plant growth and reduce risks of biotic and abiotic stresses. The present study demonstrates alleviation of salt stress in Brassica rapa L. ssp. perkinensis (Chinese cabbage) by Herbaspirillum sp. strain GW103 isolated from rhizosphere soil of Phragmites australis. The strain was capable of producing plant beneficial factors, such as auxin, siderophore, and 1-aminocylopropane-1-carboxylic acid deaminase. Treatment of strain GW103 on Chinese cabbage under salt stress increased K(+)/Na(+) ratio in roots generating balance in the ratio of ion homeostasis and consequently contributed to the increase of biomass. In addition, root colonization potential of the strain was observed by green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagging approach. These results strongly suggest the beneficial impact of strain GW103 by inducing the alleviation of salt stress and development of stress tolerance in Chinese cabbage via plant-microbe interaction.
A variety of abiotic stresses limit plant growth and crop productivity. Among the abiotic stress, salinity is one of the major harmful stresses to plants. Plant growth-promoting bacterium was isolated from reclaimed land soil of Kyehwa-do and identified as Pseudomonas. Pseudomonas sp. strain G19 produced 7.5 µg/ml of indole acetic acid and solubilized 25% of insoluble phosphate after 36 h cultivation. Also, G19 was able to produce a protein that was structurally homologous to 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate deaminase of Pseudomonas fluorescens KACC10070 playing a role in reduction of ethylene in plant. The strain G19 increased the biomass of Chinese cabbage seedlings grown in the presence of 150 mM NaCl. The results indicated that the strain G19 promoted the growth of Chinese cabbage seedling under salinity stress through microbe-plant interactions. 염 내성 미생물 선발을 위해 계화도 간척지의 토양 1 g을 채취 하여 0.8% NaCl 용액으로 연속 희석한 후, Pikovskaya's 배지 (0.05% yeast extract, 1% glucose, 0.5% calcium phosphate, 0.05% ammonium sulphate, 0.02% potassium chloride, 0.01% magnesium sulphate 0.00001% manganese sulphate, 0.00001% Keywords
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
