Abstract

Azospirillum brasilense is a plant growth beneficial rhizobacterium (PGBR) that is used as an inoculant to enhance root architecture in grassland and crop plants. The intent of our study was to develop A. brasilense into a probiotic inoculant for peas and supplement with a seedling exudate compound, to be used together or separately. As an initial characterization of the association of A. brasilense with pea roots, we performed several pea growth experiments. Azospirillum brasilense Sp7T increased the lengths of the five longest lateral roots from each plant by 63.6% and the top 10 lateral roots across 14 plants by 30%, an effect that was abolished in an rpoN mutant and a ΔcheA1/cheA4 mutant. Azospirillum brasilense Cd increased the number of lateral roots by 76%. We detected colonization by this PGBR within the epiphytic root microbiome. To identify a pea seedling exudate compound capable of enhancing lateral pea roots, we tested 15 such compounds. Cytidine was the only one that increased the number of lateral roots, by approximately two-fold, an effect that did not require A. brasilense. We conclude that both A. brasilense and cytidine might be suitable as supplements to enhance lateral roots of pea plants.

期刊介绍: FEMS Microbiology Letters gives priority to concise papers that merit rapid publication by virtue of their originality, general interest and contribution to new developments in microbiology. All aspects of microbiology, including virology, are covered. 2019 Impact Factor: 1.987, Journal Citation Reports (Source Clarivate, 2020) Ranking: 98/135 (Microbiology) The journal is divided into eight Sections: Physiology and Biochemistry (including genetics, molecular biology and ‘omic’ studies) Food Microbiology (from food production and biotechnology to spoilage and food borne pathogens) Biotechnology and Synthetic Biology Pathogens and Pathogenicity (including medical, veterinary, plant and insect pathogens – particularly those relating to food security – with the exception of viruses) Environmental Microbiology (including ecophysiology, ecogenomics and meta-omic studies) Virology (viruses infecting any organism, including Bacteria and Archaea) Taxonomy and Systematics (for publication of novel taxa, taxonomic reclassifications and reviews of a taxonomic nature) Professional Development (including education, training, CPD, research assessment frameworks, research and publication metrics, best-practice, careers and history of microbiology) If you are unsure which Section is most appropriate for your manuscript, for example in the case of transdisciplinary studies, we recommend that you contact the Editor-In-Chief by email prior to submission. Our scope includes any type of microorganism - all members of the Bacteria and the Archaea and microbial members of the Eukarya (yeasts, filamentous fungi, microbial algae, protozoa, oomycetes, myxomycetes, etc.) as well as all viruses.
