Project description:Plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) might be an alternative to increase nitrogenous use efficiency (NUE) in important crops such wheat. Azospirillum brasilense is one of the most promising PGPB and wheat roots colonized by Azospirillum brasilense is a good model to investigate the molecular basis of plant-PGPB interaction including improvement in plant-NUE promoted by PGPB. An RNA-seq transcriptional analysis of Triticum aestivum roots was carried out in two independent samples (biological replicates) of each treatment (PGPB-colonized or non-inoculated), yielding a total of 4 sequencing libraries, which were designated CWR1 and CWR2 libraries (colonized roots) and N-IWR1 and N-IWR2 (non-inoculated roots).
Project description:Possitive effects of plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) inoculation on plant growth and development are dependent on interaction between bacterial strains and plant roots, which are usually the bacterial niche. Furthermore, phytohormones are key regulators of plant physiology. Ethylene is essential in plant growth and development and in response to drought. Plant sensibility to ethylene is involved in plant response to PGPB strain inoculation and plant growth promotion. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying plant interaction with two different PGPB strains (isolated from arid soils in southern Spain) regarding to plant sentitivity to ethylene by tomato ethylene receptor 3 (SlETR3).
Project description:The current study is aimed at elucidating the proteomic responses in durum wheat Triticum aestivum L triggered by native PGPB, CP_4 (Bacillus subtilis) alone and in combination with AM fungi Glomus fasciculatum under field conditions Our results suggest that native PGPB B subtilis ( in combination with AM fungi Glomus fasciculatum (B+ may promote differential abundance of multiple regulatory seed storage proteins over untreated control Thus, combined application of native PGPB and AMF could offer a more sustainable approach to enhance crop yield.
Project description:Growth in soil inoculated with plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) producing 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate |(ACC) deaminase or expressing of the corresponding acdS in transgenic lines reduces the decline in shoot length, shoot weight and photosynthetic capacity triggered by salt stress in Camelina sativa. Reducing the levels of stress ethylene decreases the expression of salt stress-responsive genes, specifically genes involved in development, senescence, chlorosis and leaf abscission that are highly induced by salt to the levels that may have a less negative effect on growth and productivity. Moderate expression of acdS under the promoter of the rolD promoter or growing plants in soil treated with the PGPB Pseudomonas migulae 8R6, were more effective in eliminating the expression of the genes involved in ethylene production and/or signaling than expression under the more active Cauliflower Mosaic Virus 35S promoter.
Project description:Gene expression patterns in roots of Camelina sativa with enhanced salinity tolerance arising from growth in soil treated with plant growth promoting bacteria producing 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate deaminase (ACC deaminase) or from expression of the corresponding acdS gene in transgenic lines. Salinity stress negatively affects crop production. However in camelina, grown in soils treated with PGPB producing 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate deaminase (acdS ) or transgenic lines expressing acdS exhibited increased salinity tolerance. AcdS reducing the level of stress ethylene to below the point where it is inhibitory to growth. Gene expression patterns in roots responding to salt stress was affected by the expression of acdS under the control of CaMV 35S or root-specific (rolD) promoters in transgenic lines, or by growth in soils treated with endophytic PGPB producing acdS indicate that the number of the genes were differentially expressed were more assigned to genome III in transgenic plants however in PGPB treated plants the number of the genes were differentially expressed were almost equally assigned to all three genomes. Different promoter may induce different set or even different homeologues genes in camelina with probably the same function in response to salt stress. Though root is not a photosynthetic tissue reduction of the ethylene in root cells has positive effect on plant photosynthetic machinery. The expression of the genes involved in minor CHO metabolism was up-regulated mainly in roots of acdS contain plants during salt stress. Moderate reduction in ethylene production has positive effect on root growth during salt stress but reduction of the ethylene higher than a certain level has negative effect on root growth due to reduction of the expression of the genes involved in root cell elongation. AcdS gene modulating the level of ROS in cells in the level that induce ROS signaling but preventing cellular damage by make a balance on up and down-regulation of the genes involved in oxidation-reduction process in root cells under salinity stress. The acdS containing PGPB (8R6) were mostly effected the ethylene signaling and ABA biosynthesis and signaling in positive way but transgenic line depends to the promoter affecting Auxin, JA and BR signaling or biosynthesis.

Project description:Enterobacter sp. SA187 is a plant growth-promoting bacterium (PGPB) that promotes growth of the crop plant alfalfa under saline irrigation and desert farming conditions. SA187 also enhances salt tolerance of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana under in vitro conditions. In the present study, we used a transcriptomic approach to elucidate the mechanisms underlying plant growth promotion by SA187 under salt stress. Compared to free-living SA187, a massive metabolic reprogramming of SA187 occurs upon association with Arabidopsis. This effect was largely independent of the plant growth condition (non-salt or salt stress). Our data revealed pronounced changes in gene expression of proteins involved in cell signaling, chemotaxis, flagella biosynthesis, quorum sensing and biofilm formation. Also, upon plant interaction, a complete reprograming of nutrients acquisition and the central carbon metabolism of SA187 was observed. Moreover, in accordance with the previously identified role of bacterially produced 2-keto-4-methylthiobutyric acid (KMBA) in mediating salt stress tolerance, the sulfur metabolism of SA187 was strongly induced. Overall, our results give a deep insight into the metabolic and signaling pathways involved in the transition from free-living to a plant-associated PGPB life style of SA187.
Project description:During the last decades, the use of plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) has been found to increase crop yield and quality and to confer abiotic and biotic stress tolerance. However, until now the PGPB mechanism to enhance plant performances is not clearly defined. Recently, our findings demonstrated that inoculations with both Kocuria rhizophila and Streptomyces violaceoruber, as well as their combination, determined an increase of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) growth and development. In this study, through an advanced differential proteomic approach on tomato leaves, plant molecular mechanisms affected by both K. rhizophila and S. violaceoruber have been elucidated. To this aim, tomato plants were treated with K. rhizophila and/or Streptomyces violaceoruber cultures and grown on coconut fiber in greenhouse. In particular, PGPB treatments were conducted twice, on seed and after two weeks from the seedling by fertirrigation. Thus, the analyses have been performed at 14 days after sowing (DAS) (T1) and 42 DAS (T2). The results confirmed the growth stimulation ability of K. rhizophila/Streptomyces violaceoruber, showing shoot fresh and dry weight significantly improved at each time sampling. For the early phase (DAS-T1) comparative proteomics analysis of tomato plant leaves, 2 biological replicates were set up for the plants used as control (i.e. not subjected to treatment - samples I1 and I2-control I), 2 biological replicates for plants subjected to treatment with K. rhizophila (samples L1 and L2-treatment L), 2 biological replicates for plants subjected to treatment with S. violaceoruber (samples M1 and M2-treatment M), and 2 biological replicates for plants subjected to treatment with a mix of the two bacterial strains (samples N1 and N2-treatment N), for a total of 8 samples of leaf protein extracts. For the late phase (DAS-T2) comparative proteomics analysis of tomato plant leaves, 2 biological replicates were set up for the plants used as control (i.e. not treated - samples A1 and A2 - control A), 2 biological replicates for plants subjected to treatment with K. rhizophila (samples B1 and B2-treatment B), 2 biological replicates for plants subjected to treatment with S. violaceoruber (samples C1 and C2-treatment C), and 2 biological replicates for plants subjected to treatment with a mix of the two bacterial strains (samples D1 and D2-treatment D), for a total of 8 samples of leaf protein extracts. Proteomic analysis was able to identify 239 and 203 significantly differentially represented proteins (DRPs) at T1 and T2, respectively, comparing PGPB-treated vs. untreated control plants. KEGG Orthology (KO) identified DRP belonging to photosynthesis, biosynthesis of secondary metabolites, and carbon metabolism.
Project description:Plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) are a growing subset of agricultural adjuncts which can be used to increase crop yield and plant productivity. Although, substantial research has been conducted on the metabolites and active molecules secreted by PGPBs; relatively little is known about their effects on the global transcriptome of the host plant. The present study was carried out to investigate changes in the gene expression landscape of early vegetative Brassica napus following treatment with Pseudomonas chlororaphis PA23. This PGPB was isolated from the soybean rhizosphere and has been extensively studied as a biocontrol agent. However, little is known about its effects on plant growth and development. Using a combination of RNA-sequencing and physiological analyses, we identified increased abundance of mRNA transcripts associated with photosynthesis and phytohormone response. Phenotypically we observed increased photosynthetic rates and larger root and shoot systems in B. napus following P. chlororaphis PA23 treatment. Lastly, we identified auxin production by P. chlororaphis PA23 which likely contributes to changes in gene expression and observed phenotypic differences in root and shoot structures. Together, the results of our study suggest that PA23 is a potent plant growth promoting agent with the potential for field applications as an agricultural adjunct.
