Enterobacter sp. DBA51 produces ACC deaminase and promotes the growth of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) and tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) plants under greenhouse condition.

ABSTRACT: Bacterial isolated from rhizospheric soil associated with the semi-desertic plant Coronilla juncea L. were screened for 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate deaminase (ACCD) activity, a common trait for plant-growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR). Among bacterial isolates, strain DBA51 showed phosphate solubilizing index (PSI), producing indole acetic acid (IAA), and with the hemolysis-negative test. Sequencing and analysis of the 16S rDNA gene identified DBA51 as Enterobacter. DBA51 did not show antagonistic activity in vitro against bacterial (Clavibacter michiganensis, Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000 and Pectobacterium cacticidum FHLGJ22) and fungal phytopathogens (Alternaria sp., Fusarium oxysporum fsp. lycopersici, Fusariu
