RESUMO

Plant-parasitic nematodes wreak havoc on crops by root parasitism worldwide. An approach to combat nematode root parasitism is the application of antagonistic microbes like the rhizobacterium Bacillus firmus I-1582 which is promoted as biological control agent. Although B. firmus is a known nematode antagonist in general, the underlying mechanisms about its interaction with nematodes and plants have not yet been elucidated. Therefore, we explored the influence of B. firmus I-1582 as well as its extracellular and secreted molecules on plant-nematode interaction utilizing the plant-pathogen system Arabidopsis thaliana-Heterodera schachtii. We demonstrated that B. firmus I-1582 is attracted by A. thaliana root exudates, particularly by those of young plants. The bacterium colonized the root and showed a strictly pH-dependent development and plant growth promotion effect. Our results revealed that root colonization by B. firmus I-1582 significantly protected A. thaliana from infestation by the beet cyst nematode whereas dead bacterial cells or the culture supernatant were not effective. The bacterium also negatively affected nematode reproduction as well as pathogenicity and development of next generation nematodes. The obtained results highlight B. firmus I-1582 as a promising biocontrol agent that is well suited as an element of integrated control management strategies in sustainable agriculture.

RESUMO

Rhodobacter sphaeroides NMBL-02, photosynthetic purple non sulfur (PNS) bacteria and associated Bacillus firmus NMBL-03 were isolated from water sample collected from 15-20 inches beneath the surface of ponds from Northern region of India in modified Sistrom's media (120 ml) containing 3 g/L malate and 1.2 g/L ammonium sulfate. The isolation was done in air tight serum bottles (120 ml) under tungsten bulb (1.8 kLux light intensity) at 30 oC ± 2 oC. The PNS and heterotrophic bacteria associated with the culture was purified by clonal selection method and characterized by 16S rDNA sequencing. The PNS isolate was identified as Rhodobacter sphaeroides NMBL-02 (ID: 1467407, Accession BANKIT: JN256030) and associated heterotroph as Bacillus firmus NMBL-03 (Gene Bank Accession no.: JN 256029). The effect of initial medium pH on optimization of hydrogen production was investigated in batch process. The maximum hydrogen potential and hydrogen production rate was 2310 ± 55 ml/L and 4.75 ml/L culture/h respectively using glutamate (1.7 mmol/L) as nitrogen source and malate (22.38 mmol/L) as carbon source with 76.39% malate conversion efficiency at initial medium pH 5.0. This co-culture has the ability to produce significant amount of hydrogen in the pH range of 5.0 to 10.0 with 76.39% to 35.71% malate conversion respectively.
