Plant growth promoting (PGP) hormones, which are produced in a small quantity by bacteria, affect in plant growth and development. PGPs play an important role on the crop productivity in agricultural field. In this study, a photosynthetic bacterial strain producing the PGP was isolated from paddy soil. Bacterial isolate was gram negative, rod-shaped and motility positive. From the 16s rRNA gene sequence analysis, the isolate was identified as Rhodobacter capsulatus PS-2. The mass cultivation of R. capsulatus PS-2 was optimized by considering of the carbon, nitrogen and inorganic salt sources. Optimal medium composition was determined as Na-succinate 4.5 g, yeast extract 5 g, $K_2HPO_4$ 1 g, $MgSO_4$ 5 g, per liter. From the result of 500 L fermentation for 2 days using the optimal medium, the viable cells were $8.7{\times}10^9cfu/mL$. R. capsulatus PS-2 strain produced the carotenoid and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA). The carotenoid extraction and quantitative analysis were performed by HCl-assisting method. Total carotenoid contents from R. capsulatus PS-2 culture broth were measured as $7.02{\pm}0.04$ and $6.93{\pm}0.05mg/L$ under photoheterotrophic and chemoheterotrophic conditions, respectively. To measure the productivity of IAA, colorimetric method was employed using Salkowski reagent at optical density 535 nm. The results showed that the highest content of IAA was $197.44{\pm}5.92mg/L$ in the optimal medium supplemented with 0.3% tryptophan.

Gardenia callus was induced in MS medium containing $10{\;}{\mu}M$ of 2,4 diphenoxy acetic acid (2,4-D), $1{\;}{\mu}M$ kinetin, and 3% sucrose in the dark. $B_5$ medium was identified to be the most adequate medium for cell growth. Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) was better growth regulator than 2,4-D not only for cell growth but slso for carotenoid production. Ligt also played a critical role on synthesis of carotenoid. Gardenia cells grown in $B_5$ medium could utilize a polysaccharide, soluble starch, as a carbon source. The cell growth was stimulated in $B_5$ medium fortified with 0.2% yeast extract. The optimum pH for cell growth was 5.7. High density cultures can be maintained by increasing inoculum size and medium concentration accordingly. Specific growth rate and mass doubling time were 0.095 $day^{-1}$ and 7.3 days, respectively. The cell immobilized in alginate tends to formulate more enlarged vacuoles containing yellow pigment compared with those of suspended cell. Carotenoid content of immobilized cell was about $264.4{\;}{\mu}g/g$ fresh weight (F.W.) corresponding twice of the content of suspended cell ($112.08{\;}{\mu}g/g$ F.W.). The color of gardenia cell was shifted from yellow to red when carbohydrase-secreting fungus, Trichoderma reesei, was co-cultivated with gardenia cells.

본 연구에서는 제주도 한라산 중산간 습지대 28개소에서 IAA 및 carotenoid 생성능이 우수한 광합성 세균 1종을 최종 선발하였으며, 16S rRNA 염기서열 분석과 생리학적 특성을 조사한 결과 Rhodopseudomonas palustris JK-1 균주로 동정하였다. JK-1 균주의 최적배양조건을 선발하기 위하여 pH, 온도, 빛 및 통기 등을 포함한 여러 가지 요인들이 균주의 생장과 IAA 및 carotenoid 등 광합성색소 생성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 시험결과 JK-1 균주는 명/혐기조건에서 균생장, IAA 및 광합성색소 생성이 양호하였으며 암/혐기조건에서 균생장, IAA 및 광합성색소 형성이 모두 크게 억제되었다. 명/혐기조건에서 균생장, IAA 및 carotenoid 등 광합성색소의 생산을 위한 최적 pH, 온도 및 배양회전속도는 각각 7, $30^{\circ}C$, 150 rpm, 9, $30^{\circ}C$ 및 150 rpm, 그리고 6, $25^{\circ}C$ 및 50 rpm이었다. 그리고 명/호기조건(0.5~1 vvm)에서는 명/혐기조건(0 vvm)보다 균생장 및 IAA 합성이 양호하였으나 광합성색소 형성은 크게 억제되었다. 따라서 최적배양조건은 명/혐기조건에서 pH 7, 온도 $30^{\circ}C$ 및 회전속도 100 rpm을 선발하였으며, IAA 합성을 유도한 배양액을 생육촉진 효과검증에 이용하였다. 시험결과 R. palustris JK-1 균주를 열무에 3% (v/v) 처리 시 지상부 및 지하부 건물중이 무처리 및 배지처리구 대비 각각 20~58% 및 40-28% 증가하였다.
