Isolation, Characterization, and Evaluation of Native Rhizobacterial Consortia Developed From the Rhizosphere of Rice Grown in Organic State Sikkim, India, and Their Effect on Plant Growth.

ABSTRACT: Eight rhizospheric bacteria were isolated from the organic paddy fields of Sikkim, India, and identified as Pseudomonas kribbensis KSB, Burkholderia cenocepacia SRD, Kosakonia oryzendophytica YMA7, Pseudomonas rhodesiae SRB, Bacillus sp. ARA, Paenibacillus polymyxa COW3, Bacillus aryabhattai PSB2, and Bacillus megaterium PSB1. They showed plant growth-promoting attributes in rice and have bio-control potential against phytopathogen Colletotrichum gloeosporioides of large cardamom (Amomum subulatum). Burkholderia cenocepacia SRD showed production of indole acetic acid and ammonia and solubilization of phosphate and potassium and also possessed nitrogen fixation potential. It showed antagonistic activity against two other plant pathogens of large cardamom, viz., Curvularia eragrostidis and Pestalotiopsis sp., under in vitro conditions. The liquid bacterial consortium was prepared using the bacterial strains SRB, PSB1, and COW3 (Consortia-1); PSB2, SRD, and COW3 (Consortia-2); and COW3, KSB, and YMA7 (Consortia-3) to increase the growth and yield of rice plants under organic farming conditions. Greenhouse and field studies showed that the Consortia-3 had the highest plant growth-promoting activity. Consortia-3 demonstrated better agronomic performance in terms of root length (9.5 cm),number of leaflets per plant (5.3), grains per panicle (110.6), test grain weight (27.4 g), dry root weight per plant (0.73 g), and total dry biomass per plant (8.26 g).

Project description:Organic farming is an eco-friendly and sustainable farming practice that enhances soil fertility and helps in improving soil quality. But with the commencement of more sophisticated advances in agricultural techniques, organic farming has gradually become limited in the world. Culture-dependent plant growth-promoting bacterial isolates were isolated from the bulk and rhizospheric soil, of the native high yielding pole type organic pea (Pisum sativum L.) cultivar Dentami of Dentam, West Sikkim, India. Based on the 16S rRNA gene sequencing identification of these isolates, it was found that from the bulk soil, Actinobacteria (58%) was the dominant phyla followed by Firmicutes (28%), and Proteobacteria (14%). In the rhizospheric soil it was dominated by Proteobacteria (56%), followed by Firmicutes (33%), and Bacteriodetes (11%). A total of 40 bacterial isolates were initially screened for the plant growth-promoting (PGP) activity and out of them only four bacterial isolates i.e., Bacillus cereus P8, Arthrobacter woluwensis DP2, Paenarthrobacter nitroguajacolicus PP3, and Bacillus mycoides PP10 with accession numbers MN589697, MN559516, MN519462 and MN589696 respectively were found to possess higher PGP activity (i.e. phosphorous, potassium solubilization and nitrogen-fixing activity) as compared to the other bacteria present in the soil. Based on the indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) quantitative assay and siderophore production assay, it was found that Bacillus cereus (MN589697) produced the highest IAA (65.5 µg mL-1) and siderophore (71%) when compared with the other isolates. The statistical correlation suggests that pH and available phosphorus were the strongest influencing factors for the distribution of Proteobacteria in the rhizospheric soil. The results indicate that these isolates can be potential plant growth promoter under the agro-climatic conditions of Sikkim, India. To the best of our knowledge the present study is the first report of its kind and showcases significant findings pertaining to the assessment of diversity, isolation and identification of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria of organic pea grown in Sikkim.
