Exopolysaccharide from Pantoea sp. BCCS 001 GH isolated from nectarine fruit: production in submerged culture and preliminary physicochemical characterizations.

ABSTRACT: Exopolysaccharide (EPS), as potential microbial base polysaccharide source, has plenty of applications due to its unique physicochemical structure. A Pantoea sp. BCCS 001 GH bacterium with the ability to produce a high amount of EPS was identified by 16S rRNA gene sequencing and biochemical tests. The synthesis of EPS by Pantoea sp. BCCS 001 GH was 13.50 g/L in 48 h when sucrose was used as substrate. The proposed protocol was desirably rapid for massive prodcution of EPS and showed the remarkable impact of sucrose and disodium hydrogen phosphate, peptone, Triton x-100 and 2% (v/v) inoculum size on the yields of EPS production. The EPS was mainly composed of glucose and galactose in a relative molar ration (glucose/galactose) of 85.18:14.82, respectively. The preliminary characterization showed the average molecular-weight of EPS is about 2.522?×?106 Da. The microscopics morphology of polymer was formed irregularly shaped structures.

Project description:Peaches and nectarines [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] are among the most exported fresh fruit from Chile to the Northern Hemisphere. Fruit acceptance by final consumers is defined by quality parameters such as the size, weight, taste, aroma, color, and juiciness of the fruit. In peaches and nectarines, the balance between soluble sugars present in the mesocarp and the predominant organic acids determines the taste. Biomass production and metabolite accumulation by fruits occur during the different developmental stages and depend on photosynthesis and carbon export by source leaves. Carbon supply to fruit can be potentiated through the field practice of thinning (removal of flowers and young fruit), leading to a change in the source-sink balance favoring fruit development. Thinning leads to fruit with increased size, but it is not known how this practice could influence fruit quality in terms of individual metabolite composition. In this work, we analyzed soluble metabolite profiles of nectarine fruit cv "Magique" at different developmental stages and from trees subjected to different thinning treatments. Mesocarp metabolites were analyzed throughout fruit development until harvest during two consecutive harvest seasons. Major polar compounds such as soluble sugars, amino acids, organic acids, and some secondary metabolites were measured by quantitative 1H-NMR profiling in the first season and GC-MS profiling in the second season. In addition, harvest and ripening quality parameters such as fruit weight, firmness, and acidity were determined. Our results indicated that thinning (i.e., source-sink imbalance) mainly affects fruit metabolic composition at early developmental stages. Metabolomic data revealed that sugar, organic acid, and phenylpropanoid pathway intermediates at early stages of development can be used to segregate fruits impacted by the change in source-sink balance. In conclusion, we suggest that the metabolite profile at early stages of development could be a metabolic predictor of final fruit quality in nectarines.
