Characterization of a free-living maize-rhizosphere population of Burkholderia cepacia: effect of seed treatment on disease suppression and growth promotion of maize

Abstract: A Burkholderia cepacia population naturally occurring in the rhizosphere of Zea mays was evaluated by metabolic and molecular profiling and for some traits associated with biocontrol and plant growth promoting (PGP) activity. The purpose was to investigate the potential of this bacterial species closely associated with maize to act as a PGP inoculant. The bacterial strains, isolated on semiselective PCAT medium, were assigned to the species B. cepacia by an analysis of the restriction patterns produced by ampl… Show more

“…They constitute a large group on non-pathogenic soil bacteria that promote growth and/or control soil pathogens or insect pests when grown in a non-symbiotic association with plants [29] – [35] . Illustrative examples are the capacity to promote growth and protect against Fusarium wilts, in maize [36] and anthracnose, in mango [37] observed in plants inoculated with Burkholderia cepacia , and the induced systemic response against whitefly ( Bemisia tabaci ) pests detected in tomato plants inoculated with a Bacillus subtilis strain [38] . Other PGPR species belong to the Rhizobium , Mesorhizobium and Bradyrhizobium [39] , [40] , Azospirillum [41] , Agrobacterium , Azotobacter [42] , Arthrobacter, Alcaligenes , Pseudomonas [43] , [44] , Serratia , Enterobacter, Beijerinckia, Klebsiella, Clostridium, Variovovax, Xanthomonas , and Phyllobacterium genera [45] [49] .…”

“…(Heungens y Parke, 2000), Rhizoctonia solani (Kang et al, 1998) y Fusarium spp. (Bevivino et al, 1998). El biocontrol del damping-off es crucial, dado el amplio rango de plantas hospederas, y al hecho de que el tratamiento de semillas se realiza con fungicidas deletéreos para la salud humana (Parke y Gurian-Sherman, 2001).…”
