Studies on Dynamics of Two Endophytic Bacterial Strains Inside Ginseng and Soil of Root Region / 世界科学技术-中医药现代化

ABSTRACT

This article was aimed to study the dynamics of biocontrol endobacteria in roots, stems and leaves of Panax ginseng and soils adjacent roots. Gradient screening and root irrigation methods were used to develop Rif-resistance bacteria and inoculation. Dilution plate method was used to count the number of them in roots, stems and leaves of P. ginseng and soils adjacent roots. The results showed that bacteria which can endure 120 μg·mL-1 Rif was developed, and no change was found on their antagonistic activity against A lternaria panax Whetz and Phytophthora cactorum. In roots and stems of P. ginseng, ge15 and ge25 showed the highest number in the initial.Then, populations of ge15 and ge25 in ginseng roots and stems decreased to a stable status gradually. In ginseng leaves, populations of ge15 and ge25 increased to the highest 3 days after inoculation, then, populations of them were decreased and kept at certain concentration. In ginseng rhizosphere soil, populations of ge15 showed reciprocating change, and which of ge25 showed increase initial, and then decrease to a stable status. It was concluded that endobacteria can keep a certain population in ginseng roots, stems, and leaves. Biocontrol agents based on them will be helpful for ginseng diseases controlling in the field.
