Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of microbial technology, in particular to a Pseudomonas with the ability of phosphorus solubilization and siderophore production and its application. BACKGROUND

[0002] Phosphorus is one of the three essential nutrients for plant growth and metabolism, and is a key element that determines the primary productivity, multifunctionality and ecological service quality of an ecosystem. The lack of phosphorus can seriously affect the growth and development of crops, such as inhibiting the energy conversion and metabolism of chloroplasts, and reducing crop yield. However, most of the phosphorus in the soil exists in the form of insoluble phosphorus, and about 95% of the phosphorus is difficult for plants to directly absorb and utilize. In agricultural production, a large amount of phosphorus fertilizer is often applied to meet the supply of phosphorus elements for plants, but the large-scale application of traditional phosphorus fertilizer not only leads to the depletion of phosphorus resources, but also easily causes secondary pollution. Therefore, finding a green and efficient method to improve soil phosphorus utilization rate is still a problem that needs to be solved in current agricultural production.

[0003] Phosphorus-solubilizing bacteria widely exist in soil, and can convert insoluble phosphorus in soil into phosphorus that can be absorbed and utilized by plants through the secretion of organic acids, phosphatases and protons, playing an important role in maintaining soil phosphorus balance, promoting crop growth and improving crop yield. In addition, phosphorus-solubilizing bacteria can exchange carbon and phosphorus with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, thereby increasing the content of available phosphorus in soil.

[0029] The following embodiments are further illustrations of the present invention, but not limitations thereof.

[0030] Example 1: Isolation of Pseudomonas P-14-21

[0031] Pseudomonas P-14-21 strain is isolated from tomato leaf tissue of tomato bacterial wilt outbreak in Yuanmou County, Chuxiong City, Yunnan Province. The specific isolation steps are as follows: the tomato leaf tissue is washed with sterile water for 3 times, then the surface is sterilized with 75% anhydrous ethanol for 3 min, then washed with sterile water for 1 time, the water on the surface of the leaf is wiped dry with a water-absorbing paper, then the leaf is cut into pieces with sterile scissors, 1 g sample is weighed in a sterile mortar, 9 mL sterile water is added, the leaf tissue is crushed with a grinding rod, 1 mL juice sample is taken in 9 mL sterile water, and the sample is shaken for 3 min with a vortex shaker, and then the sample is diluted with sterile water to 10 -1 、10 -2 、10 -3 The original liquid, 10 -1 、10 -2 、10 -3 samples are taken 100 μL, respectively, and are coated on plates containing TZC medium, each concentration gradient is repeated 3 times, and is placed in a 30℃ incubator for inverted culture observation, and is cultured for 1-3 days, and the strains with different colony morphology, color and size are picked and purified, and the pure strain is obtained after 2-3 times of purification.

[0032] The formula of TZC culture medium is: 10 g / L bacteriological peptone, 1 g / L acid hydrolysis casein, 10 g / L glucose, 15 g / L agar powder, 1% 2,3,5-chlorinated triphenyl tetrazole 5 mL, and the solvent is water. The preparation method is as follows: the bacteriological peptone, acid hydrolysis casein, glucose and agar powder are weighed according to the above amount, 1000 mL deionized water is added, stirred and heated to completely dissolve, the pH of the solution is adjusted to 6.8-7.0, and the solution is divided into triangular bottles, 121℃ high pressure sterilization for 15 min, after completion, when the medium temperature decreases to 55℃, 5 mL 1% 2,3,5-chlorinated triphenyl tetrazole solution is added, mixed uniformly, and then poured into disposable culture dishes for standby.

[0033] Example 2: Identification and preservation of Pseudomonas P-14-21

[0034] The apparent identification of strain P-14-21: the strain is identified according to the colony morphology, color, transparency and luster of the strain. For example Figure 1As shown, the Pseudomonas P-14-21 single colony on NA medium (formula: 10 g / L peptone, 3 g / L beef infusion powder, 5 g / L sodium chloride, 15 g / L agar powder, solvent is water. Preparation method: weigh the formula amount of peptone, beef infusion powder, sodium chloride, agar powder, add 1000 mL of deionized water, stir and heat to completely dissolve, adjust the pH of the solution to 7.2, distribute in a flask, autoclave at 121°C for 15 min, then pour into a disposable petri dish for standby) is round, light yellow, smooth surface, and the edge is neat. With the increase of culture time, the colony gradually turns yellow.

[0035] 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis of strain P-14-21: Genomic DNA of strain P-14-21 was extracted using HiPure Bacterial DNA Kit kit, and 16S rRNA gene was amplified using bacterial universal primers 27F / 1492R. The PCR product was sent to Jinweizhi Biotechnology Co., Ltd. for sequencing, and the sequence is SEQ ID NO. 1. The sequencing results were compared by EzBioCloud (https: / / www.ezbiocloud.net / identify) website.

[0036] The results show that the strain P-14-21 has the maximum similarity with the model strain Pseudomonas meliae CFBP3225 T 98.03%; followed by Pseudomonas savastanoi ATCC13522 T 98.02%; Pseudomonas ficuserectae JCM 2400 T 98.02%. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with other model strains of Pseudomonas is less than 98.00%. In the art, a similarity of less than 98.7% between the 16S rRNA gene sequence of a bacterial species and a model strain is generally used as a threshold for dividing a new species, therefore, based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity results, strain P-14-21 may be a new species within the genus Pseudomonas.

[0037] Strain P-14-21 whole genome sequence analysis: Strain P-14-21 was sent to Shanghai Meiji Biomedicine Technology Co., Ltd. for genome sequencing using the Illumina Novaseq platform. SPAdes v3.15.3 software was used for bacterial genome sequence assembly, and contig sequences with low quality and less than 500 bp in length were removed. CheckM v1.1.3 software was used for quality analysis of the integrity and contamination of the bacterial genome. The TYPE software (https: / / tygs.dsmz.de / ) comes with a whole genome database of model strains. The whole genome data of strain P-14-21 was uploaded to the database to establish the genome phylogenetic tree of strain P-14-21. At the same time, in order to further clarify the differences between these bacteria, ANICalculator (http: / / www.ezbiocloud.net / tools / ani) and Genome-to-Genome Distance Calculator v3.0 (https: / / ggdc.dsmz.de / ggdc.php#) were used to calculate the average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digitally DNA-DNA hybridization value (dDDH) between strain P-14-21 and the genome sequences of the 5 most similar bacterial species.

[0038] The results showed that the genome size of strain P-14-21 was 5210258 bp, the G+C content was 61.62%, the N50 was 620010 bp, the genome integrity was 100%, and the contamination was 0.43%. According to the genome integrity of not less than 95% and the contamination of not more than 5%, it is considered as a high-quality genome, which indicates that the genome of strain P-14-21 is a high-quality genome. By counting the ANI and dDDH values between strain P-14-21 and the genome sequences of the 5 most similar bacterial species, the results showed that the ANI value between strain P-14-21 and the model bacterial species was 80.57~80.80%, and the dDDH value was 24.1~24.2% (Table 1), which was much lower than the threshold of 70% and 95% for distinguishing new bacterial species by dDDH and ANI (if the ANI between the genomes of two strains is >95% or dDDH is >70%, then the two strains belong to the same bacterial species), which further indicates that strain P-14-21 is a new species of Pseudomonas. In addition, the genome phylogenetic tree of strain P-14-21 showed that strain P-14-21 formed an independent phylogenetic branch (Fig. 1), Figure 4 which indicates that strain P-14-21 has an independent taxonomic status.

[0039] In summary, strain P-14-21 is a new species of Pseudomonas (P-14-21), which was deposited in the Guangdong Microbial Culture Collection Center (GDMCC) on August 7, 2024, at 100 Xianlie Road, Guangzhou, Guangdong, China, Postcode: 510070, and the deposit number is GDMCC No:64969.
