Endophytic bacteria-based biocontrol is regarded as a potential plant disease management strategy. Present study analyzed the diversity of mulberry endophytic bacteria basing on culture-dependent approach and further evaluated their antimicrobial growth-promoting (PGP) activities. A total 608 cultivable bacteria, belonging to 4 phyla 36 genera, were isolated from four cultivars having different resistance sclerotiniosis in three seasons. Taxonomic compositional analysis results showed that...
Highlights•Season played a key role in determining mulberry endophytic bacterial communities.•Mulberry variation was not obviously related with cultivars.•Mulberry recruited beneficial endophytes as potential biocontrol agents.AbstractKnowledge of seasonal shifts the community composition among different (Morus L.) cultivars will facilitate to develop phytopathogens strategy using bacteria. The present study investigated communities four that have resistance fruit sclerotiniosis...
Drought stress often leads to heavy losses in mulberry planting, especially for fruits and leaves. Application of plant growth-promoting fungi (PGPF) endows various beneficial traits overcome adverse environmental conditions, but little is known about the effects on under drought stress. In present study, we isolated 64 from well-growing trees surviving periodical stress, Talaromyces sp. GS1, Pseudeurotium GRs12, Penicillium GR19, Trichoderma GR21 were screened out due their strong potential...
This study established a quick and accurate method to detect petal infection of oilseed rape ( Brassica napus ) by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum using nested‐PCR technique. DNA samples were extracted from each microwave method, followed two rounds PCR amplification. The first‐round amplification was performed the universal fungal primer pair ITS4/ITS5, second‐round with specific XJJ21/XJJ222, which designed single‐nucleotide polymorphisms among nuclear rDNA ITS sequences spp., Botrytis spp. other...
Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria have been shown to play important roles in maintaining host fitness under periods of abiotic stress, and yet their effect on mulberry trees which regularly suffer drought after flooding the hydro-fluctuation belt Three Gorges Reservoir Region China remains largely uncharacterized. In present study, 74 bacterial isolates were obtained from rhizosphere soil including 12 phosphate-solubilizing 10 indole-3-acetic-acid-producing isolates. Bacillus megaterium...
The endophytic microbiome is thought to play an important role in promoting plant growth and health. Using culture-independent culture-dependent protocols, this study characterized the seasonal shifts fungal microbiota of four mulberry (Morus L.) cultivars having different levels resistance fruit sclerotiniosis. Core endophytes can be obtained by two approaches, they were divided into clusters season. Spring samples harbored higher operational taxonomic units (OTUs) α-diversity, while autumn...
Summary Plant‐associated microbes influence plant performance and may also impact biotic abiotic stress tolerance. The microbiome of mulberry trees planted for ecological restoration in the hydro‐fluctuation belt Three Gorges Reservoir Region, China, exhibited distinct patterns localization. endosphere lower α‐diversity relative to rhizosphere, but was more closely related host growth status, especially stem tissues. Pantoea predominant bacterial genus inhabiting stems two well‐growing...
Growth promotion and stress tolerance induced by endophytes have been observed in various plants, but their effects on mulberry regularly suffering flood the hydro-fluctuation belt are less understood. In present study, endophytic Klebsiella aerogenes HGG15 was screened out from 28 plant growth (PGP) bacteria as having superior PGP traits vitro planta well biosafety for silkworms. K. could actively colonize into roots of subsequently transferred to stems leaves. The 16S ribosomal RNA (V3-V4...
The responses of cells to the distinct PDGF isoforms have been correlated directly relative numbers specific receptor subunits on cell surface. modulation PDGF-a subunits, major subunit expressed in human periodontal ligament (PDL) cells, by cytokines present wound site, such as interleukin-1 (IL-1), may be an important factor influencing regenerative outcomes. purpose study was examine effects IL-1β expression PDL cells. Primary cultures were treated with over a range concentrations. We...
