Suppression of Meloidogyne javanica by antagonistic and plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria.

ABSTRACT: Four rhizobacteria selected out of over 500 isolates from rhizosphere of the vegetables in China were further studied for suppression of the root-knot nematode and soil-borne fungal pathogens in laboratory and greenhouse in Belgium. They were identified as Brevibacillus brevis or Bacillus subtilis by Biolog test and partial 16s rDNA sequence comparison. They not only inhibited the radial growth of the root-infecting fungi Rhizoctonia solani SX-6, Pythium aphanidermatum ZJP-1 and Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. cucumerinum ZJF-2 in vitro, but also exhibited strong nematicidal activity by killing the second stage larvae of Meloidogyne javanica to varying degrees in the greenhouse. The toxic principles of bacterium B7 that showed the highest juvenile mortality were partially characterized. The active factors were heat stability and resistance to extreme pH values. B7 used either as seed dressing or soil drench significantly reduced the nematode populations in the rhizosphere and enhanced the growth of mungbean plants over the controls in the presence or absence of R. solani.

Project description:Arabidopsis thaliana transcriptome analysis in response to plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) Experiment 1 : Changes in gene expression profile triggered during root architecture response to Phyllobacterium. Biological question : Which genes are up- or down-regulated in Arabidopsis thaliana cultivated in vitro with increased lateral root development in response to Phyllobacterium STM196 inoculation. Experiment description: Seeds of wild-type Arabidopsis thaliana (ecotype Columbia) were surface-sterilized and sown on agar mineral medium (see below). 4 days after storage in the dark at 4C, seedling were cultivated 6 days in a growth chamber (16 h daily, 20-22C) and then transferred on a fresh agar mineral medium inoculated or not with Phyllobacterium STM196 (2.108 cfu/ml). 6 days later, root and leaves were collected, froze on liquid nitrogen and stored at -80C. Experiment 2 : Changes in gene expression profile triggered during induced systemic resistance (ISR) Biological question : Which genes are up- or down-regulated during the ISR triggered by a rhizobacteria, in comparison with those affected by a pathogenic interaction. Experiment description: Seeds were sown on 0.8% (W/V) agar mineral medium (see below). 4 days after storage in the dark at 4C, seedling were cultivated 6 days in a growth chamber (16 h daily, 20-22C) and then transferred on soil inoculated or not with 107 cfu.g-1 of Bradyrhizobium strain ORS278. Three weeks later, 3 leaves per plant were infiltrated with a suspension of Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (2.105 cfu.ml-1) or with MgSO4 10 mM alone for control plants. Infiltrated leaves were collected 24h later. Experiment 3 : Comparison of the effects of 3 rhizobacteria on Arabidopsis thaliana transcriptome Biological question : which genes are specifically induced or repressed in Arabidopsis thaliana by inoculation of the soil with a PGPR vs a bacteria that has the ability to trigger nodule formation in a Legume. Experiment description: Seeds of wild-type Arabidopsis thaliana (ecotype Columbia) were surface-sterilized and sown on agar mineral medium. Four days after storage in the dark at 4C, seedlings were cultivated 6 days in a growth chamber (16 h daily, 20-22C) and then transferred on soil inoculated or not with 108 cfu.g-1 of Mesorhizobium loti, or 108 cfu.g-1 of Phyllobacterium STM196, or 107 cfu.g-1 of Bradyrhizobium ORS278.
