Pseudomonas sp. AF-54 containing multiple plant beneficial traits acts as growth enhancer of Helianthus annuus L. under reduced fertilizer input. | LitMetric

Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are capable to increase the growth and yield of crops in eco-friendly and sustainable manner. To evaluate the response of sunflower towards inoculation with PGPR, a sunflower root associated bacterium AF-54 isolated from Diyar Gali Himalayan Mountain region, Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK), identified as Pseudomonas sp. by 16S rRNA sequence analysis and was characterized using polyphasic approach. The bacterium produced 23.9 μgmL indole-3-acetic acid in tryptophan-supplemented medium, showed 44.28 nmoles mg protein h nitrogenase activity through acetylene reduction assay and released 48.80 μg mL insoluble phosphorus in Pikovskaya's broth. During P-solubilization, the pH of the Pikovskaya's medium decreased from 7 to 3.04 due to the production of acetic acid, malic acid and gluconic acid. Pseudomonas sp. AF-54 showed metabolic versatility by utilizing 79 carbon sources from BIOLOG GN2 plates and resistance to many antibiotics. Furthermore, it inhibited the growth of Fusarium oxysporum in dual culture assay. To evaluate the plant-inoculation response, series of experiments conducted in hydroponic, sterilized soil and fields at AJK, and Faisalabad where inoculated plants with reduced fertilizer showed a significant increase in growth, yield, oil contents and achene NP uptake as compared to non-inoculated control. AF-54 showed extensive root colonization in sterilized and non-sterile conditions documented through yfp-labeling and fluorescent in situ hybridization coupled with confocal laser scanning microscopy. This study concludes that the Pseudomonas sp. strain AF-54 containing multiple plant growth promoting traits can be a potential candidate for biofertilizer production to enhance sunflower crop yield with reduced application of chemical (NP) fertilizers.
