Evaluation of plant growth promoting attributes and lytic enzyme production by fluorescent Pseudomonas diversity associated with Apple and Pear

چکیده
Replant problem is very serious problem which suppress growth and yield of apple and pear in all major fruit growing areas of the world. Fluorescent Pseudomonas has potential to synthesize different secondary metabolites with diverse PGPR activities which enhance soil fertility and promote plant growth. Under the present study twenty six Pseudomonas strains were isolated from the rhizosphere of apple and pear plants of their normal and replant sites and found that the Pseudomonas count was more in normal site as compare to replant site. They were further screened for the production of various PGPR activities and proteolytic enzymes production viz. protease, chitinase and glucanase. AN-1-UHF, AN-5-UHF, PN7-UHF and PN-13-UHF were selected on the basis of their higher PGPR attributes and proteolytic activities. These strains were further found to be very efficient in antimicrobial activities.

متن کاملCharacterization of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria associated with chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)
Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are known to influence plant growth by various direct or indirect mechanisms. In search of efficient PGPR strains with multiple activities, a total of 150 bacterial isolates belonging to Bacillus, Pseudomonas, Azotobacter and Rhizobium were isolated from different rhizospheric soil of chick pea in the vicinity of Allahabad. These test isolates were bi...
متن کاملCrop specific plant growth promoting effects of ACCd enzyme and siderophore producing and cynogenic fluorescent Pseudomonas
Fluorescent Pseudomonas, aerobic, Gram-negative bacteria possess many traits that make them well suited as biocontrol and growth promoting agents. Our study revealed that isolates vary in mechanisms involved in the antagonist interactions against pathogen and growth stimulatory effects on host plant. Most of the potential antagonistic fluorescent Pseudomonas identified were avid iron chelators ...
متن کاملFungi associated with apple and pear sooty blotch and flyspeck diseases in Guilan province, Iran
Sooty blotch and flyspeck occur on fruit surfaces and result in economic losses due to less attractive appearance. Sooty blotch fungi form dark mycelial mats whereas flyspeck fungal agents are well characterized with black, sclerotium-like bodies on fruit surface. Whilst more than 60 species have been reported in association with these two fungal diseases, thus far they have not been studied in...
متن کاملAn Investigation of Apple Chlorotic Leaf Spot (ACLSV) and Tomato Ring Spot (ToRSV) in Some Iranian Pear Gardens
Background and Aims: In spite of a long tradition of fruit-tree growing in all provinces of Iran, information on pear (Pyrus communis) tree viruses is scant. In order to identify of the nature of the virus like symptoms and decline in pear trees, we carried out a survey for the occurrence of four important viruses. Materials and Methods: Leaf samples of pear showing virus like symptoms wer...
