Aims: To characterize the functional role of extracellular polysaccharides and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) extracted from endophytic Pseudomonas putida BP25 (PpBP25) against rice blast.
Methods And Results: We profiled the transcriptome of endobacterized rice seedlings using RNA-seq. Fluorescence imaging of interaction between Magnaporthe:: gfp and P. putida:: mCherry was performed on rice phylloplane using confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). Microbial polysaccharides, exopolysaccharide (EPS), and LPS extracted from PpBP25 were characterized using Fourier-transform infrared-spectroscopic analysis (FTIR). Biochemical assays and gene expression analysis were conducted on EPS- and LPS-treated rice seedlings. A detached-leaf assay was designed to test the blasticidal-effect of bacterial-endophyte, EPS, and LPS on rice phylloplane. PpBP25 elicited defense in rice with a consequently altered seedling phenotype. Rice cultivar, Pusa Basmati-1, colonized by PpBP25 showed an altered transcriptome profile displaying a total of 110-downregulated and 68-upregulated genes (P < 0.005) representing growth/development and defense pathways, respectively. CLSM of PpBP25 bacterized phylloplane showed reduced conidial-germination and mycelial-biomass of Magnaporthe oryzae. To decipher the elicitor role of polysaccharides, we purified and characterized EPS and LPS using FTIR. Rice treated with the EPS and LPS showed root-growth inhibition the phenotype of MAMP-triggered immunity. While the EPS showed blast suppressive activity at 1-20 mg mL-1 (79.80%-86.87% reduction over control), the LPS exhibited 78.0%-79.8% reduction at 20-200 μg mL-1on rice. Polysaccharides treated seedling showed elevated activities of peroxidase and polyphenol-oxidase activities, and total-phenols content. Treated plantlets showed up regulation of OsPR1.1,OsPR3, OsGLP3-3,OsZFP179, and Oshox24 as well as downregulation of OsACS6.
Conclusions: We showed that P. putida Bp25 and its cell wall-associated polysaccharides could elicit defense against rice blast.

Understanding the early interactions between plants and endophytes will contribute to a more systematic approach to enhancing endophyte-mediated effects on plant growth and environmental stress resistance. This study examined very early growth and ascorbate metabolism after seed treatment of with three different endophytes. The three endophytes used were pb1(Bapb1), (Ml) and SLB4 (SLB4).

Serpentine soils are characterized as a unique environment with low nutrient availability and high heavy metal concentrations, often hostile to many plant species. Even though these unfavorable conditions hinder the growth of various plants, particular vegetation with different adaptive mechanisms thrives undisturbed. One of the main contributors to serpentine adaptation represents serpentine bacteria with plant growth-promoting properties that assemble delicate interactions with serpentine plants.

Article Synopsis
- * The isolates were found to have beneficial traits for plants, such as producing growth-promoting compounds and enzymes, and showed antagonistic activity against certain fungal pathogens.
- * Selected isolates, specifically GU1, GU6, GU7, and GU18, not only enhanced growth in licorice plants but also effectively colonized their roots, suggesting their potential use as bioinoculants for agricultural purposes.

This study aimed to explore antibiotic resistance characteristics and species of heterotrophic endophytic bacteria (HEB) in four kinds of edible raw vegetables, including radishes, lettuces, onions, and tomatoes. A total of 144 HEB were isolated and tested for resistance to sulfamethoxazole (SMZ), tetracycline (TET), cefotaxime (CTX), and ciprofloxacin (CIP), and their species were identified by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) and class I integron in antibiotic-resistant isolates were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction.
