Pseudomonas Inoculation Stimulates Endophytic Azospira Population and Induces Systemic Resistance to Bacterial Wilt.

ABSTRACT: Bacterial communities in the rhizosphere play an important role in sustaining plant growth and the health of diverse soils. Recent studies have demonstrated that microbial keystone taxa in the rhizosphere microbial community are extremely critical for the suppression of diseases. However, the mechanisms involved in disease suppression by keystone species remain unclear. The present study assessed the effects of three Pseudomonas strains, which were identified as keystone species in our previous study, on the growth performance and root-associated bacterial community of tobacco plants. A high relative abundance of Ralstonia was found in the non-inoculated group, while a large Azospira population was observed in all groups inoculated with the three Pseudomonas str
