A novel plant growth-promoting rhizobacterium, Rhizosphaericola mali gen. nov., sp. nov., isolated from healthy apple tree soil.

ABSTRACT: The rhizosphere microbial community is closely associated with plant disease by regulating plant growth, agricultural production, nutrient availability, plant hormone and adaptation to environmental changes. Therefore, it is very important to identify the rhizosphere microbes around plant roots and understand their functions. While studying the differences between the rhizosphere microbiota of healthy and diseased apple trees to find the cause of apple tree disease, we isolated a novel strain, designated as B3-10^T, from the rhizosphere soil of a healthy apple tree. The genome relatedness indices between strain B3-10^T and other type species of family Chitinophagaceae were in the ranges of 62.4-67.0% for ANI, 18.6-32.1% for dDDH, and 39.0-56.6% for AAI, which were signi
