Abstract
Methylobacterium spp. bacteria occur commonly in the environment. The presence of some methylobacteria in the soil/plant have positive effect to the plants growth and can reduce or prevent the consequence of phytopathogens. We determined the effect of M. oryzae CBMB20 (rice endosymbiont) on different stages of Arabidopsis thaliana and Solanum lycopersicum development. Protective properties against phytopathogenic bacteria of M. oryzae CBMB20 lipopolysaccharide were also determined. High resolution mass spectrometry was used to confirm presence of IAA in tomato extracts. Based on the obtained results we concluded that, M. oryzae CBMB20 had no significant effect on the germination percentage of both plants but increased the number of root hairs in A. thaliana and the length of S. lycopersicum sprouts and led to an increase in the fresh weight of the plants. LPS CBMB20 was able to strengthen a defence reaction in response to the presence of the phytopathogen. S. lycopersicum, treated with CBMB20, produced more IAA than plants that were not treated with the methylobacteria, which translates into an increase in fresh mass. These findings suggest that M. oryzae CBMB20 has potential as a component of biopreparations.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Plant Physiology is a broad-spectrum journal that welcomes high-quality submissions in all major areas of plant physiology, including plant biochemistry, functional biotechnology, computational and synthetic plant biology, growth and development, photosynthesis and respiration, transport and translocation, plant-microbe interactions, biotic and abiotic stress. Studies are welcome at all levels of integration ranging from molecules and cells to organisms and their environments and are expected to use state-of-the-art methodologies. Pure gene expression studies are not within the focus of our journal. To be considered for publication, papers must significantly contribute to the mechanistic understanding of physiological processes, and not be merely descriptive, or confirmatory of previous results. We encourage the submission of papers that explore the physiology of non-model as well as accepted model species and those that bridge basic and applied research. For instance, studies on agricultural plants that show new physiological mechanisms to improve agricultural efficiency are welcome. Studies performed under uncontrolled situations (e.g. field conditions) not providing mechanistic insight will not be considered for publication.
The Journal of Plant Physiology publishes several types of articles: Original Research Articles, Reviews, Perspectives Articles, and Short Communications. Reviews and Perspectives will be solicited by the Editors; unsolicited reviews are also welcome but only from authors with a strong track record in the field of the review. Original research papers comprise the majority of published contributions.
