The extent of grain yield and plant growth enhancement by plant growth-promoting broad-spectrum Streptomyces sp. in chickpea.

ABSTRACT: The physiological and molecular responses of five strains of Streptomyces sp. (CAI-17, CAI-68, CAI-78, KAI-26 and KAI-27), with their proven potential for charcoal rot disease control in sorghum and plant growth-promotion (PGP) in sorghum and rice, were studied to understand the mechanisms causing the beneficial effects. In this investigation, those five strains were evaluated for their PGP capabilities in chickpea in the 2012-13 and 2013-14 post-rainy seasons. All of the Streptomyces sp. strains exhibited enhanced nodule number, nodule weight, root weight and shoot weight at 30 days after sowing (DAS) and pod number, pod weight, leaf area, leaf weight and stem weight at 60 DAS in both seasons over the un-inoculated control. At crop maturity, the Streptomyces strains had enhanced stover yield, grain yield, total dry matter and seed number plant(-1) in both seasons over the un-inoculated control. In the rhizosphere, the Streptomyces sp. also significantly enhanced microbial biomass carbon, dehydrogenase activity, total nitrogen, available phosphorous and organic carbon in both seasons over the un-inoculated control. Of the five strains of Streptomyces sp., CAI-17, CAI-68 and CAI-78 were superior to KAI-26 and KAI-27 in terms of their effects on root and shoot development, nodule formation and crop productivity. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) micrographs had revealed the success in colonization of the chickpea roots by all five strains. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis of selected PGP genes of actinomycetes revealed the selective up-regulation of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA)-related and siderophore-related genes by CAI-68 and of ?-1,3-glucanase genes by KAI-26.

Project description:Microorganisms and their hosts communicate through an array of signals. Many physiological processes regulated in quorum sensing (QS) are dependent on auto-inducers, like N-acyl-homoserine lactones (AHLs) as in numerous groups of both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. In vitro grown seven-day old chickpea seedlings treated with plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPRs) were used to screen the AHL mimicking and for phytochemical substances like phytohormones and secondary metabolites such as phenolics and flavonoids. Potential anti-quorum sensing (anti-QS) activity surrounding the roots on semi-solid agar lawn of Chromobacterium violaceum (ATCC12742) was observed. Crude protein (4.46-8.30 μg/mL) and methanolic extracts (100 μg/mL) of seedling gave moderate anti-QS activity against CV12742 anti QS bioassay, respectively. Crude protein and methanolic extract of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (34.00 ± 2.23; 34.00 ± 4.33 mm) and B. subtilis A (27.00 ± 2.10; 3.29 ± 2.16 mm) treated samples showed higher zone of inhibition due to anti-QS activity. Phytohormone analysis using LC-MS for zeatin, auxin and methyl jasmonate (MeJA) indicated that phytohormones were significantly upregulated by 1909.80 ng/g FW, 669.67 ng/g FW and 244.55 ng/g FW, respectively in Pseudomonas brassicacearum treated seedlings compared to control. UHPLC of PGPR treated seedlings showed overly expressed gallic acid, protocatechuic acid, catechin, p-hydroxybenzoic acid, caffeic acid, catechol, vanillin, and ferulic acid in B. amyloliquefaciens treated seedlings compared to others. Enrichment analysis identified significant pathways related to metabolism, biosynthesis of secondary metabolites. The present study indicates that chickpea neutralizes an extensive range of functional responses to AHLs that may play important role in legume host-microbe interactions.Supplementary informationThe online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s12298-021-01034-x.
