Abstract

Chemotactic responses of five motile saprophytic and one phytopathogenic bacteria e.g. Agrobacterium radiobacter, Bacillus subtilis, B. polymyxa, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, P. fluorescens and Xanthomonas malvacearum towards exudate of Cochliobolus sativus conidia, Fusarium of oxysporum f. sp. ciceri chlamydospores, Macrophomina phaseolina sclerotia and Phytophthora drechsleri f. sp. cajani oospores were determined in vitro at different abiotic conditions. In general, a positive correlation (r=0.76 to 0.89; P=0.05) was observed between concentration of fungal exudates and attraction of bacterial cells. Similarly, a significant (P=0.05; r=+0.82 to 0.95) positive correlation was noticed between chemotactic response and incubation period. The chemotactic response of bacteria was greatly influenced by temperature and pH of the test fungal exudate. The optimum temperature for maximum chemotaxis was $25^{\circ}C$ for A. radiobacter, $30^{\circ}C$ for B. polymyxa, P. aerugionosa, P. fluorescens and X. malvacearum and $35^{\circ}C$ for B. subtilis. Fungal exudates maintained at pH 7 attracted maximum number of bacteria. The response of bacterial cells to exudates at pH 3 and 11 was not significantly (P=0.05) different than that to the buffer (control). Chemotaxis of bacteria was observed towards attractants (fungal propagules and their exudates) when they were kept apart and bridged with the capillaries filled with non-attractant (buffer) or attractant (exudate).

운동성을 띠는 5가지 부생균과 1종류의 식물병원세균으로 Agrobacterium radiobacter, Bacillus subtilis, B. polymyxa, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, P. fluorescens 및 Xanthomonas malvacearum을 공시하여 이들 세균이 Cochliobolus sativus 분생포자, Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceri의 후막포자, Macrophomina phaseolina의 균핵 및 Phytophthora drechsleri f. sp. cajani 난포자의 분비물에 미치는 화학주성을 서로 다른 무생물적 조건하에서 실험하였다. 균의 분비물의 농도와 세균세포의 끌리는 유인사이에는 정상관$(r=0.76{\sim}0.89)$이 있었다. 유사한 결과로서 화학주성반응과 배양간격에서도 통계적인 정상관이 있다$(r=0.82{\sim}0.95)$. 세균의 화학주성반응은 온도와 pH에 크게 영향을 받는다. 최적 화학주성을 나타내는 온도로서 A. radiobacter는 $25^{\circ}C$, B. polymyxa, P. aerugionosa, p. fluorescens and X. madracearum은 $30^{\circ}C$이었고, B. subtilis는 $35^{\circ}C$가 최적이었다. 최대 화학주성을 나타내는 분비물의 주성은 pH7이고 pH3과 11에서는 buffer와 같았다. 시험용 모세관에 유인물질이나 buffer 중 어느 종류가 채워져도 유인물질이 있는 시험관에 연결되면 세균은 주성이 나타난다는 것이 증명되었다.
