Kitazin-pea interaction: understanding the fungicide induced nodule alteration, cytotoxicity, oxidative damage and toxicity alleviation by Rhizobium leguminosarum.

ABSTRACT: Realizing the severity of fungicidal toxicity to legumes and importance of fungicide tolerant rhizobia in legume production, kitazin tolerant (2400 μg mL^-1) strain RP1 was recovered from pea nodules and was identified as Rhizobium leguminosarum (accession no. KY940047). R. leguminosarum produced indole acetic acid (80.5 ± 2.5 mL^-1), siderophores: salicylic acid (54 ± 7.3 μg mL^-1) and 2,3-dihydoxybenzoic acid (31.9 ± 2.7 μg mL^-1), α-ketobutyrate (51 ± 3.2 per mg per protein per hour), solubilized insoluble phosphate (29.5 ± 1.8 μg mL^-1) and secreted 29.5 + 2.6 μg mL^-1 exopolysaccharides, which, however, decreased consistently with gradually increasing kitazin concentrations. Beyond the tolerance level, kitazin c
