Arsenic-Redox Transformation and Plant Growth Promotion by Purple Nonsulfur Bacteria Rhodopseudomonas palustris CS2 and Rhodopseudomonas faecalis SS5

Abstract: Arsenic (As) is a well-known toxic metalloid found naturally and released by different industries, especially in developing countries. Purple nonsulfur bacteria (PNSB) are known for wastewater treatment and plant growth promoting abilities. As-resistant PNSB were isolated from a fish pond. Based on As-resistance and plant growth promoting attributes, 2 isolates CS2 and SS5 were selected and identified as Rhodopseudomonas palustris and Rhodopseudomonas faecalis, respectively, through 16S rRNA gene sequencing.

“…S5 ), even though these strains possess most of the phosphate solubilization-related genes. This result is also consistent with previous reports that R. palustris lacks the ability to solubilize phosphate 55 , 56 . The commonly observed absence of phosphate-solubilization activity among R. palustris strains indicates that this function is probably no longer required for sustaining the growth of these bacteria in the environment.…”

“…This gives twofold advantage to the plants growing in As-contaminated soil. Many scientists have reported plant growth promotion by bacteria in the presence of metals (Batool et al 2017), however, reports of As-resistant bacteria isolated from croplands and their effects on plant growth enhancement in the presence of As are rare. Table S2 highlights some of the studies reporting As/metals resistance and plant growth promotion by strains of the same bacterial species as reported in this study.…”
