Diversity analysis of Populus euphratica endophytic bacteria in Tarim River Basin, China.

ABSTRACT: The bacterial diversity in Populus euphratica stem storage liquid samples grown in Shaya County and Yuli County of the Tarim River Basin was investigated. A culture-dependent (dilution spread plate method) and culture-independent method (PCR-RFLP technique) were used to identify the endophytic bacteria community structure and composition in P. euphratica in Tarim River Basin. Sixty-six bacterial strains were isolated from P. euphratica stem storage liquid samples on three agar media. The 16S rDNA gene was amplified and sequenced using bacterial universal primers. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the 66 strains belonged to three phyla (Firmicutes, Actinomycetes, and Gamma-Proteobacteria) and included 16 genera and 29 species. Among them, Pseudomonas (27.27%) and
