Abstract. Homthong M, Kaewpuk W, Yamsuan S, Thongsima A, Mokkapan K, Pikulthong V. 2022. Screening of indole-3-acetic acid PGPB from three agricultural systems at Nakhon Pathom, Thailand. Biodiversitas 23: 5935-5941. Plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) are associated with plant roots and enhance growth via a variety of mechanisms, including fixation of atmospheric nitrogen, solubilization of phosphorus, phytohormone synthesis, and plant phenolic compound stimulation. Sixty-five isolated bacteria from the three agricultural systems in Nakhon Pathom were screened for IAA production. The results showed that seven isolates—C01-28, C02-48, C02-51, G01-34, G03-25, G03-38, and O02-46—produced IAA under L-tryptophan as a precursor at values of 9.08 ± 0.51, 68.64 ± 29.07, 40.67 ± 18.04, 10.65 ± 1.07, 63.30 ± 1.15, 37.73 ± 1.80, and 121.28 ± 15.20 mg mL-1, respectively. Capability on plant growth-promoting traits revealed that none of the isolates stimulated ten-morning glory (Ipomoea aquatica Forsk.) seedling growth, which was not significantly different from the control. Isolates O02-46 enhanced salicylic acid (SA) in ten-morning glory seedlings the most, showing 7.18 ± 1.78 µg g-1 of fresh weight, while isolates G01-34 enhanced phenolic compound (PC) production the most showing 218.18 ± 29.55 mg GAE g-1 extract, respectively. The 16S rRNA analysis revealed that isolates O02-46, C02-48, G03-25, and C02-51 were identified as similar to Paenibacillus alvei at 99.20% (Accession number AY826588.1), Bacillus megaterium at 79.91% (Accession number MH031358.1), Bacillus sp. at 98.57% (Accession number JF322976.1), and Lysinibacillus fusiformis at 99.61% (Accession number HE610782.1).
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.
