The effects of allelochemicals from root exudates of Flaveria bidentis on two Bacillus species.

ABSTRACT: To determine the allelopathic effects of root exudates from Flaveria bidentis on function of Bacillus, pot experiment was used to collect root exudates from living plants and test its allelopathic effects on function of Bacillus frigoritolerans and Bacillus megaterium, which were two dominant bacteria in the rhizosphere soil of F. bidentis. To obtain the allelopathic substances, the root exudates were successively extracted by N-hexane, dichloromethane, ethyl acetate, and N-butanol, and their allelopathic effects were tested. The results showed that B. frigoritolerans and B. megaterium considerably increased the concentration of available phosphorus and nitrogen, respectively, when the soil was treated with different concentrations of root e
