Characterization and Initial Application of Endophytic Bacillus safensis Strain ZY16 for Improving Phytoremediation of Oil-Contaminated Saline Soils

Abstract: Hydrocarbon-degrading and plant-growth-promoting bacterial endophytes have proven useful for facilitating the phytoremediation of petroleum-contaminated soils with high salinity. In this study, we identified Bacillus safensis strain ZY16 as an endophytic bacterium that can degrade hydrocarbons, produce biosurfactants, tolerate salt, and promote plant growth. The strain was isolated from the root of Chloris virgata Sw., a halotolerant plant collected from the Yellow… Show more

“…showed increased biomass and successfully overcame the growth inhibition observed for non-inoculated plants. Wu et al [ 189 ] isolated the endophytic Bacillus safensis strain ZY16 from the roots of Chloris virgate . This strain exhibited multifunctional properties, including efficient degradation of the C 12 –C 32 n- alkanes of diesel oil and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons under hypersaline conditions, as well as production of biosurfactants, which resulted in stronger growth and biomass production in the inoculated plants compared with the controls.…”

“…It was evidenced that many identified endophytic strains could be applicable for either bioremediation and/or biotransformation processes ( Table 3). The most effective strains for bioremediation are bacterial representatives of the following genera: Pseudomonas, Bacillus, Pantoea, Streptomyces, Klebsiella, Shewanella, Burkholderia, and Sphingomonas [110][111][112][113][114][115][116][117][118][119][120][121][122][123][124][125][126][127][128], fungal endophytes: Lasiodiplodia, Aspergillus, Curvularia, Westerdykella, and representatives of Lindgomycetaceae [111,121,125]. However, their application depends on the contaminants and their metabolic functions ( Table 3).…”

“…For apple rootstocks, Rhizobium and Bacillus represented more than 1% of the abundance, and there was a significant positive correlation between the Bacillus and the root phosphorus concentration (Table ). Pseudomonas and Bacillus , which are known as phosphate‐solving bacteria, can reportedly resist various environmental stresses, through actions such inhibiting pathogens and inducing systemic resistance (Wu et al ; Zhang et al ), and they significantly promote nutrient uptake in host plants through fixing nitrogen, dissolving phosphorus and producing hormone substances to promote growth (Verhagen et al ; Karimi et al ). In this study, the Bacillus abundance was significantly higher in the PE rhizosphere, and it had highly positive Pearson correlations with the phosphorus concentration.…”
