Drought limits rice production under upland condition. This study quantified the effect of rhizobacteria inoculation on rice root system developmental response to drought and its role in maintaining high soil water use, and dry matter production under drought using NSIC Rc192 (rainfed lowland rice variety). The source of inoculant was Streptomyces mutabilis, a recently isolated rhizobacteria containing plant growth promoting compounds such as ACC deaminase, indole-3-acetic acid and phosphatase (Cruz et al., 2014, 2015). In the first experiment, pre-germination inoculation of seeds with S. mutabilis significantly increased the shoot and root (radicle) length as well as root hair lengths, relative to the non-inoculated control. In the second experiment, rice plants inoculated with S. mutabilis and grown in rootbox with soil generally had greater total root length under drought regardless of the timing of inoculations, relative to the non-inoculated control. Consequently, improved root system development contributed to the increase in soil water uptake under drought and thus, dry matter production. Among inoculation treatments, one-time inoculation of S. mutabilis either at pre-germination or pre-drought stress at 14 days after sowing (DAS), had significantly greater shoot dry matter production than three-time inoculation at pre-germination, at thinning (3 DAS) and at pre-drought (14 DAS). This study demonstrated the effectiveness of rhizobacteria (S. mutabilis) containing growth promoting compounds for enhancing drought dehydration avoidance root traits and improving the growth of rice plants under drought condition.

Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria and endophytic bacteria were isolated from different varieties of turmeric (Curcuma longa L.) from South India. Totally 50 strains representing, 30 PGPR and 20 endophytic bacteria were identified based on biochemical assays and 16S rDNA sequence analysis. The isolates were screened for antagonistic activity against Pythium aphanidermatum (Edson) Fitzp., and Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn., causing rhizome rot and leaf blight diseases in turmeric, by dual culture and liquid culture assays. Results revealed that only five isolates of PGPR and four endophytic bacteria showed more than 70% suppression of test pathogens in both assays. The SEM studies of interaction zone showed significant ultrastructural changes of the hyphae like shriveling, breakage and desication of the pathogens by PGPR B. cereus (RBacDOB-S24) and endophyte P. aeruginosa (BacDOB-E19). Selected isolates showed multiple Plant growth promoting traits. The rhizome bacterization followed by soil application of B. cereus (RBacDOB-S24) showed lowest Percent Disease Incidence (PDI) of rhizome rot and leaf blight, 16.4% and 15.5% respectively. Similarly, P. aeruginosa (BacDOB-E19) recorded PDI of rhizome rot (17.5%) and leaf blight (17.7%). The treatment of these promising isolates exhibited significant increase in plant height and fresh rhizome yield/plant in comparison with untreated control under greenhouse condition. Thereby, these isolates can be exploited as a potential biocontrol agent for suppressing rhizome rot and leaf blight diseases in turmeric.

Soil microorganisms play a major role in improving soil fertility and plant health. Symbiotic arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) form a key component of the soil microbial populations. AMF form a mutualistic association with the host plant and exert a positive influence on its growth and nutrient uptake. The establishment of mycorrhizal symbioses with the host plant can positively be influenced by plant growth promoting rhizobacteria through various mechanisms such as increased spore germination and hyphal permeability in plant roots. Though there are evidences that combined interactions between AMF and PGPR can promote the plant growth however mechanisms of these interactions are poorly understood. Better understanding of the interactions between AMF and other microorganisms is necessary for maintaining soil fertility and enhancing crop production. This paper reviews current knowledge concerning the interactions between AMF and PGPR with plants and discusses on enhanced nutrient availability, biocontrol, abiotic stress tolerance and phytoremediation in sustainable agriculture.

식물은 재배기간 동안 세균, 진균, 바이러스 등의 생물 스트레스뿐만 아니라 고온, 염, 건조 등 다양한 환경 스트레스에도 노출되어 왔다. 최근에는 기후 이상현상으로 인하여 환경 스트레스의 빈도 및 강도가 불규칙적으로 증가하고 있으며 이로 인해 병원균의 생장과 영향도 변화하여 생물과 환경의 복합 스트레스가 식물 재배에 큰 영향을 주고 있다. 유용미생물을 이용한 식물의 저항성 유도는 다양한 생물과 환경 스트레스로부터 식물을 보호하는 데 도움을 주며, 이러한 스트레스에 대한 피해를 감소시킬 수 있는 가능성을 열어 주었다. 본 리뷰에서는 식물의 생물과 환경 스트레스에 대한 피해를 감소시키는 데 영향을 주는 미생물의 결정인자에 대해 기술하였으며 미생물 결정인자에 의해 유도되는 식물 신호전달 체계 변화에 대해 기술하였다. 또한 복합 스트레스 경감을 위한 미생물의 역할과 연구 방향에 대해 기술하였다. 이 리뷰를 통해 변화하는 환경에 대비하기 위해서 다양한 방안을 마련하고 있는 농민들에게 도움이 되기를 바라며, 실제 유용미생물 연구가 식물 재배 중 발생할 수 있는 다양한 스트레스에 따른 농가 피해를 감소시킬 효과적 대응 방안으로 이어지길 바란다.

Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) have the potential to be used as microbial inoculants to reduce disease incidence and severity and to increase crop yield. Some of the PGPR have been reported to be able to enter plant tissues and establish endophytic populations. Here, we demonstrated an approach to screen bacterial endophytes that have the capacity to promote the growth of pepper seedlings and protect pepper plants against a bacterial pathogen. Initially, out of 150 bacterial isolates collected from healthy stems of peppers cultivated in the Chungcheong and Gyeongsang provinces of Korea, 23 putative endophytic isolates that were considered to be predominating and representative of each pepper sample were selected. By phenotypic characterization and partial 16S rDNA sequence analysis, the isolates were identified as species of Ochrobacterium, Pantoea, Pseudomonas, Sphingomonas, Janthinobacterium, Ralstonia, Arthrobacter, Clavibacter, Sporosarcina, Acidovorax, and Brevundimonas. Among them, two isolates, PS4 and PS27, were selected because they showed consistent colonizing capacity in pepper stems at the levels of $10^6-10^7CFU/g$ tissue, and were found to be most closely related to Pseudomonas rhodesiae and Pantoea ananatis, respectively, by additional analyses of their entire 16S rDNA sequences. Drenching application of the two strains on the pepper seedlings promoted significant growth of peppers, enhancing their root fresh weight by 73.9% and 41.5%, respectively. The two strains also elicited induced systemic resistance of plants against Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. vesicatoria.

Soil or seed applications of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) have been used to enhance growth of several crops as well as to suppress the growth of plant pathogens. In this study, we selected a PGPR strain, Paenibacillus polymyxa strain E681, out of 3,197 heat-stable bacterial isolates from winter wheat and barley roots. Strain E681 inhibited growth of a broad spectrum plant pathogenic fungi in vitro, and treatment of cucumber seed with E681 reduced incidence of damping-off disease caused by Pythium ultimum, Rhizoctonia solani, or Fusarium oxysporum. When inoculated onto seeds as vegetative cells or as endospores, E681 colonized whole cucumber root systems and root tips. Different temperatures such as $20^{\circ}C\;and\;30^{\circ}C$ did not affect root colonization by strain E681. This colonization was associated with a consistent increase in foliar growth of cucumber in the greenhouse. These results indicate that strain E681 is a promising PGPR strain for application to agricultural systems, particularly during the winter season.

식물과 근권미생물을 이용해 토양 오염물질을 제거하는 rhizoremediation의 효율을 높이기 위해서는 오염물질을 제거함과 동시에 식물 생장을 촉진시키는 미생물 자원 개발이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 중금속 및 유류 복합 오염 토양에서 서식하고 있는 옥수수와 톨페스큐의 근권으로부터 중금속(구리, 카드뮴 및 납) 내성을 가진 근권세균을 순수분리하였고, 식물 생장 촉진능, 중금속 내성능 및 디젤 분해능을 정성적으로 평가하였다. 그 결과 중금속 내성, 식물 생장 촉진 활성 및 디젤 분해능을 가진 6종의 균주를 분리하였다. 옥수수 근권에서 분리한 CuM5와 CdM2 균주는 Cupriavidus sp.로 동정되었다. 톨페스큐 근권에서 분리한 CuT6, CdT2, CdT5 및 PbT3는 각각 Fulvimonas soli, Cupriavidus sp., Novosphingonium sp. 및 Bacillus sp.로 동정되었다. Cupriavidus sp. CuM5와 CdM2는 중금속 내성과 디젤 분해능은 상대적으로 낮았으나, 식물 생장 촉진능이 상대적으로 우수하였다. 6종 중에서 디젤 분해능이 가장 우수한 균주는 Cupriavidus sp. CdT2와 Bacillus sp. PbT3이었다. 특히, Bacillus sp. PbT3는 3종의 중금속에 대해 상대적으로 우수한 내성을 가졌고 식물 생장 촉진능도 우수하였다. 본 연구에서 분리한 근권세균은 유류와 중금속 복합 오염 토양을 정화시키며 식물 생장을 촉진시키는 새로운 미생물 자원으로 활용 가능하다.

Excess use of chemical fertilizer causes soil acidification and accumulation of salt, and thus might bring to desertification of soil. To overcome this problem, it needs limited usage of chemical fertilizer and increased usage of natural fertilizer as an alternative. In this study, dry soil-borne Bacillus sp. SHL-3, which was isolated from arid and barren soil, with plant growth promoting activity was isolated for identification and to determine optimal culture condition. A bacterial strain SHL-3 had the IAA productivity ($5.16{\pm}0.10mg\;L^{-1}$), ACC deaminase activity ($0.36{\pm}0.09$ at 51 hours) and siderophore synthesis. It was identified as genus Bacillus sp.. Also, optimal culture condition of SHL-3 were $20^{\circ}C$ and pH 7 in LB medium. Bacillus sp. SHL-3 had up to 4% salt tolerance in the medium. We evaluated the plant growth promotion ability of SHL-3 using yam (Dioscorea japonica Thunb.). As a result, Bacillus sp. SHL-3 was effective on the increase of the shoot length (202.4% increase for 91 days). These results indicate that Bacillus sp. SHL-3 can serve as a promising microbial resource for the biofertilizers of soil.
