The rhizobacteria Pseudomonas fluorescens BRM-32111 and Burkholderia pyrrocinia BRM-32113 have been recorded as growth promoters in rice. This study was developed to understand the effect of the application of rhizobacteria on upland rice plants in consecutive plantations. Experiments were conducted in a completely randomized design with four replications of four treatments: rice seed inoculated with P. fluorescens BRM-32111, rice seed inoculated with B. pyrrocinia BRM-32113(both sown on soil with rice residue), non-inoculated plants sown on soil with rice residue(control with residue(WR)), and non-inoculated plants on soil with no residue(NR). Roots and seedling growth were adversely affected by allelopathic compounds in control WR plants. Plants inoculated with rhizobacteria P. fluorescens BRM-32111 or B. pyrrocinia BRM-32113 induced an increase of 88% in biomass, 3% in the leaf area, 40% in length, 67% in root biomass, 21% in chlorophyll a, 53% in chlorophyll(a+b), 50% in rate of carbon assimilation(A), 227% in A/rubisco carboxylation efficiency(Ci) and 63% in water use efficiency(WUE) compared to control WR plants. These results indicate that rhizobacteria P. fluorescens BRM-32111 and B. pyrrocinia BRM-32113 increase the tolerance of rice plants to stress from allelochemicals. There are possible practical agricultural applications of these results for mitigating the effects of environmental allelochemistry on upland rice.展开更多

Our aims were to determine the best method of microorganism inoculation on Brachiaria (Syn. Urochloa) brizantha cv. BRS Piata, compare the responses of inoculated plants of this forage grass with fertilized and unfertilized controls and examine its effect on some morphological, physiological and biochemical responses. On the first experiment, three inoculation methods were tested: in the seed, seed and soil, and soil, with Pseudomonas fluorescens (BRM-32111) and Burkholderia pyrrocinia (BRM-32113). In the second experiment, fertilized and unfertilized plants were either inoculated with BRM-32111, BRM-32113 and co-inoculated (BRM-32111 + BRM-32113). In a final experiment, B. brizantha was inoculated by soil drenching with BRM-32111, BRM-32113 and co-inoculated (BRM-32111 + BRM-32113), and compared to fertilized- and unfertilized-controls. The inoculation by soil drenching, at seedling stage, was more effective than inoculation only in the seed or both in the seed and by soil drenching. The fertilizer may have suppressed the beneficial bacterial effects on the growth of B. brizantha. P. fluorescens and B. pyrrocinia co-inoculated increased nitrate, protein, nitrogen concentration, Spad index (chlorophyll content), leaf area, number of tillers, net photosynthesis and total biomass production of B. brizantha plants. Our results point out to a potentially valuable source of practical information in the search of an eco-friendlier approach to increase pasture productivity.展开更多

文摘This article is the 17th in the Fungal Diversity Notes series which allows the researchers to publish fungal collections with updated reports of fungus-host and fungus-geography.Herein we report 97 taxa with four new genera distributed in three phyla(Ascomycota,Glomeromycota and Mucoromycota),11 classes,38 orders and 62 families collected from various regions worldwide.This collection is further classified into taxa from 69 genera with four novel genera namely Jinshana,Lithophyllospora,Parapolyplosphaeria and Stegonsporiicola.Furthermore,71 new species,21 new records,one new combination and four novel phylogenetic placements are provided.The new species comprise Acrocalymma estuarinum,Aggregatorygma isidiatum,Alleppeysporonites elsikii,Amphibambusa aquatica,Apiospora hongheensis,Arthrobotrys tachengensis,Calonectria potisiana,Collariella hongheensis,Colletotrichum squamosae,Corynespora chengduensis,Diaporthe beijingensis,Dicellaesporites plicatus,Dicellaesporites verrucatus,Dictyoarthrinium endophyticum,Distoseptispora chiangraiensis,Dothiora eucalypti,Epicoccum indicum,Exesisporites chandrae,Fitzroyomyces pseudopandanicola,Fomitiporia exigua,Fomitiporia rondonii,Fulvifomes subthailandicus,Gigaspora siqueirae,Gymnopus ailaoensis,Hyalorbilia yunnanensis,Hygrocybe minimiholatra,H.mitsinjoensis,H.parviholatra,H.solis,H.vintsy,Helicogermslita kunmingensis,Jinshana tangtangiae,Kirschsteiniothelia dujuanhuensis,Lamproderma subcristatum,Leucoagaricus madagascarensis,Leucocoprinus mantadiaensis,Lithophyllospora australis,Marasmius qujingensis,Melomastia aquilariae,Monoporisporites jansoniusii,M.pattersonii,Monoporisporites valdiyae,Mucispora maesotensis,Mucor soli,Muyocopron yunnanensis,Nigrospora tomentosae,Ocellularia psorirregularis,Ophiocordyceps duyunensis,Oxneriaria nigrodisca,Oxydothis aquatica,O.filiforme,Phacidiella xishuangbannaensis,Phlebiopsis subgriseofuscescens,Pleurothecium takense,Pleurotus tuber-regium,Pseudochaetosphaeronema puerensis,Pseudodactylaria guttulate,Racheliella chinensis,Rhexoacrodictys fangensis,Roussoella neoaquatica,Rubroboletus pruinosus,Sanghuangporus subzonatus,Scytalidium assmuthi,Shrungabeeja kudremukhensis,Spirographa skorinae,Stanjehughesia bambusicola,Stegonsporiicola aurantiaca,Umbelopsis hingganensis,Vararia tenuata,Verruconis pakchongensis,Wongia bandungensis,and Zygosporium cymodoceae.The new combination is Parapolyplosphaeria thailandica(≡Polyplosphaeria thailandica).The 21 new hosts,geographical and habitat records comprise Acrocalymma fici,Apiculospora spartii,Aspergillus subramanianii,Camposporium ramosum,Clonostachys rogersoniana,Colletotrichum brevisporum,C.plurivorum,Collybiopsis gibbosa,Dictyosporium tratense,Distoseptispora adscendens,Exosporium livistonae,Ganoderma gibbosum,Graphis mikuraensis,Gymnosporangium paraphysatum,Lasiodiplodia thailandica,Moesziomyces bullatus,Penicillium cremeogriseum,P.echinulonalgiovense,P.javanicum,P.lanosocoeruleum,P.polonicum,and Pleurotus tuber-regium.Graphis chlorotica,G.panhalensis and G.parilis are given as novel phylogenetic placements.In addition,we provide the morphology of Tarzetta tibetensis which was missing in the previous Fungal Diversity Notes 1611–1716.Identification of characterization of all these taxa are supported by morphological and multigene phylogenetic analyses.
文摘Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria(PGPR)contain various biocontrol bacteria with broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity,and their single species has been extensively applied to control crop diseases.The development of complex biocontrol community by mixing two or more PGPR members together is a promising strategy to enlarge the efficacy and scope of biocontrol.However,an effective method to assess the natural compatibility of PGPR members has not yet been established to date.Here,we developed such a tool by using the bacterial contactdependent antibacterial activity(CDAA)as a probe.We showed that the CDAA events are common in two-species interactions in the four selected representative PGPRs,represented by the incompatible interaction of Lysobacter enzymogenes strain OH11(OH11)and Lysobacter antibioticus strain OH13(OH13).We further showed that the CDAA between OH11 and OH13 is jointly controlled by a contact-dependent killing device,called the type IV secretion system(T4SS).By deleting the respective T4SS synthesis genes,the T4SS in both strains was co-inactivated and this step unlocked their natural CDAA,resulting in an engineered,compatible mutant alliance that co-displayed antibacterial and antifungal activity.Therefore,this study reveals that releasing bacterial CDAA is effective to rationally engineer the biocontrol community.

文摘In Pseudomonas aeruginosa(P.aeruginosa),transcription factors(TFs)are important mediators in the genetic regulation of adaptability and pathogenicity to respond to multiple environmental stresses and host defences.The P.aeruginosa genome harbours 371 putative TFs;of these,about 70 have been shown to regulate virulence-associated phenotypes by binding to the promoters of their target genes.Over the past three decades,several techniques have been applied to identify TF binding sites on the P.aeruginosa genome,and an atlas of TF binding patterns has been mapped.The virulence-associated regulons of TFs show complex crosstalk in P.aeruginosa's regulatory network.In this review,we summarise the recent literature on TF regulatory networks involved in the quorum-sensing system,biofilm formation,pyocyanin synthesis,motility,the type III secretion system,the type VI secretion system,and oxidative stress responses.We discuss future perspectives that could provide insights and targets for preventing clinical infections caused by P.aeruginosa based on the global regulatory network of transcriptional regulators.
