The RpoS Sigma Factor Negatively Regulates Production of IAA and Siderophore in a Biocontrol Rhizobacterium, Pseudomonas chlororaphis O6.

ABSTRACT: The stationary-phase sigma factor, RpoS, influences the expression of factors important in survival of Pseudomonas chlororaphis O6 in the rhizosphere. A partial proteomic profile of a rpoS mutant in P. chlororaphis O6 was conducted to identify proteins under RpoS regulation. Five of 14 differentially regulated proteins had unknown roles. Changes in levels of proteins in P. chlororaphis O6 rpoS mutant were associated with iron metabolism, and protection against oxidative stress. The P. chlororaphis O6 rpoS mutant showed increased production of a pyoverdine-like siderophore, indole acetic acid, and altered isozyme patterns for peroxidase, catalase and superoxide dismutase. Consequently, sensitivity to hydrogen peroxide exposure increased in the P. chlororaphis O6 rpoS mutant, compared with the wild type. Taken together, RpoS exerted regulatory control over factors important for the habitat of P. chlororaphis O6 in soil and on root surfaces. The properties of several of the proteins in the RpoS regulon are currently unknown.

Project description:Biocontrol bacteria can be used for plant protection against some plant diseases. Pseudomonas chlororaphis PCL1606 (PcPCL1606) is a model bacterium isolated from the avocado rhizosphere with strong antifungal antagonism mediated by the production of 2-hexyl, 5-propil resorcinol (HPR). Additionally, PcPCL1606 has biological control against different soil-borne fungal pathogens, including the causal agent of the white root rot of many woody crops and avocado in the Mediterranean area, Rosellinia necatrix. The objective of this study was to assess whether the semicommercial application of PcPCL1606 to soil can potentially affect avocado soil and rhizosphere microbial communities and their activities in natural conditions and under R. necatrix infection. To test the putative effects of PcPCL1606 on soil eukaryotic and prokaryotic communities, a formulated PcPCL1606 was prepared and applied to the soil of avocado plants growing in mesocosm experiments, and the communities were analyzed by using 16S/ITS metagenomics. PcPCL1606 survived until the end of the experiments. The effect of PcPCL1606 application on prokaryotic communities in soil and rhizosphere samples from natural soil was not detectable, and very minor changes were observed in eukaryotic communities. In the infested soils, the presence of R. necatrix strongly impacted the soil and rhizosphere microbial communities. However, after PcPCL1606 was applied to soil infested with R. necatrix, the prokaryotic community reacted by increasing the relative abundance of few families with protective features against fungal soilborne pathogens and organic matter decomposition (Chitinophagaceae, Cytophagaceae), but no new prokaryotic families were detected. The treatment of PcPCL1606 impacted the fungal profile, which strongly reduced the presence of R. necatrix in avocado soil and rhizosphere, minimizing its effect on the rest of the microbial communities. The bacterial treatment of formulated PcPCL1606 on avocado soils infested with R. necatrix resulted in biological control of the pathogen. This suppressiveness phenotype was analyzed, and PcPCL1606 has a key role in suppressiveness induction; in addition, this phenotype was strongly dependent on the production of HPR.
