Community Structures and Antifungal Activity of Root-Associated Endophytic Actinobacteria of Healthy and Diseased Soybean.

ABSTRACT: The present study was conducted to examine the influence of a pathogen Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) de Bary on the actinobacterial community associated with the soybean roots. A total of 70 endophytic actinobacteria were isolated from the surface-sterilized roots of either healthy or diseased soybeans, and they were distributed under 14 genera. Some rare genera, including Rhodococcus, Kribbella, Glycomyces, Saccharothrix, Streptosporangium and Cellulosimicrobium, were endemic to the diseased samples, and the actinobacterial community was more diverse in the diseased samples compared with that in the heathy samples. Culture-independent analysis of root-associated actinobacterial community using the high-throughput sequencing approach also
