Molecular Imprints of Plant Beneficial Streptomyces sp. AC30 and AC40 Reveal Differential Capabilities and Strategies to Counter Environmental Stresses
Publication date: Available online 24 February 2020Source: Microbiological ResearchAuthor(s): Richa Salwan, Vivek Sharma, Anu Sharma, Ankita SinghAbstractStreptomyces and their biomolecules are well explored for antibiotics production, bioremediation and alleviating the plant stresses due to their plant beneficial attributes. Therefore, due to plethora of biological attributes, the accurate portraying of molecular capabilities of these microorganisms at genomic level is of paramount importance. Here, we have evaluated biochemical attributes of two Streptomyces sp. AC30and AC40 for different plant beneficial activities whic...

Fluorescent Pseudomonas strains from mid-mountain water able to release antioxidant proteins directly into water
Publication date: Available online 22 February 2020Source: Microbiological ResearchAuthor(s): Elodie Dussert, Mélissa Tourret, Barbara Deracinois, Matthieu Duban, Valérie Leclère, Benoit Cudennec, Rozenn Ravallec, Josette Behra-MielletAbstractLittle is known about fluorescent Pseudomonas and investigations are needed to help us better understand how their species work. The aim was here to mimic what naturally occurs in environmental water containing strains isolated from mid-mountain water samples and identified as Pseudomonas fluorescens by conventional biochemical techniques. Three strains were cultured before being d...

Enrichment of potentially beneficial bacteria from the consistent microbial community confers canker resistance on tomato
Publication date: Available online 22 February 2020Source: Microbiological ResearchAuthor(s): Jiakang Yin, Youfeng Yu, Ziliang Zhang, Lingling Chen, Lifang RuanAbstractThe soil microbiota interacts with plants closely and exerts strong influences on plant health and productivity. However, the relationship between the microbiota and the bacterial canker of tomato that is caused by Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis (Cmm) is still unclear. In order to establish causal relationship between the microbiota and plant phenotypes, the microbial communities of 49 tomato samples (including 15 cultivars) with different ca...

Isolation of Trichoderma in the rhizosphere soil of Syringa oblata from Harbin and their biocontrol and growth promotion function
Publication date: Available online 22 February 2020Source: Microbiological ResearchAuthor(s): Bin Liu, Shida Ji, Huifang Zhang, Yucheng Wang, Zhihua LiuAbstractFor the effective biocontrol of Syringa powdery mildew (Mircosphaera syringejaponicae) and to promote seedling growth, we identified 44 of the 181 Trichoderma isolates (T1-T181) isolated from the rhizosphere soil. Analysis identified 10 Trichoderma species, and T. pseudoharzianum T1 (TpseT1), T. afroharzianum T52 (TafrT52), and T. asperelloides T57 (TaspT57) were selected to make Trichoderma biofertilizer because of their fast growth and high spore production. Expos...

Identification of a novel bacterial taxon associated with bovine mastitis showing a close evolutionary relationship with Elizabethkingia sp
Publication date: Available online 21 February 2020Source: Microbiological ResearchAuthor(s): Zihao Pan, Qian Zhou, Hui Ma, Qianmei Gong, Suchun Wang, Huochun Yao, Jiale Ma, Kaicheng WangAbstractRecently, the characteristics of prevalent bacterial pathogens causing bovine mastitis have become increasingly complicated, and many commensal or unusual bacterial species have been isolated from milk samples of cows with mastitis. Strain JS20170427COW was isolated dominantly from the milk of Holstein Friesian cows with mastitis in Jiangsu province in China. Colonies of this strain showed a hillock-like protrusion, with a pale-yel...

Tovar-Herrera, Claudia Martínez-AnayaAbstractPectobacterium is a diverse genus of phytopathogenic species from soil and water that cause infection either to restricted or multiple plant hosts. Phylogenetic analysis and metabolic fingerprinting of large numbers of genomes have expanded classification of Pectobacterium members. Pectobacterium brasiliense sp. nov has been elevated to the species level having detached from P. carotovorum. Her...

Bacteroidetes can be a rich source of novel lanthipeptides: the case study of Pedobacter lusitanus
Publication date: Available online 19 February 2020Source: Microbiological ResearchAuthor(s): Tânia Caetano, Wilfred van der Donk, Sónia MendoABSTRACTLanthipeptides are intriguing peptides known since 1928, the year of penicillin’s discovery. At that time, they were known as lantibiotics due to their (methyl)lanthionine amino acids and antibacterial activity. Their body of knowledge expanded tremendously over the last few years. Our analysis reveals that Bacteroidetes has a high state of clusters encoding the biosynthesis of class I lanthipeptides. We show that some strains of Pedobacter have a number of LanBs/genome c...

Forest tree associated bacteria for potential biological control of Fusarium solani and of Fusarium kuroshium, causal agent of Fusarium dieback
The objective of this study was to identify bacteria or bacterial products with antagonistic activity against Fusarium solani and Fusarium kuroshium, causal agent of Fusarium dieback, by screening the rhizosphere and phyllosphere of three Lauraceae species. From 195 bacterial isolates, we identified 32 isolates that significantly reduced the growth of F. solani in vitro, which mostly belonged to bacterial taxa Bacillus, Pseudomonas and Actinobacteria. The antifungal activity of their volatile organic compounds (VOCs) was also evaluated. Bacterial strain Bacillus sp. CCeRi1-002, recovered from the rhizosphere of Aiouea effu...

ACC deaminase in plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB): an efficient mechanism to counter salt stress in crops
Publication date: Available online 15 February 2020Source: Microbiological ResearchAuthor(s): Ma. del Carmen Orozco-Mosqueda, Bernard R. Glick, Gustavo SantoyoAbstractSalinity in agricultural soil is a major problem around the world, with negative consequences for the growth and production of a wide range of crops. To counteract these harmful effects, plants sometimes have bacterial partners that contain the enzyme 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) deaminase, which acts by degrading ACC (the precursor of ethylene in all higher plants). The enzymatic activity of ACC deaminase results in the production of α-ketobu...
