Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of tobacco K326 endophytic fungi, and in particular to tobacco seedling drought-resistant endophytic fungi W10 and applications thereof. Background Art

[0002] Plant endophytic fungi are a group of microorganisms that can promote plant growth, assist their host plants in resisting harsh environmental stresses, produce secondary metabolites similar to those of the host plants, and induce the accumulation of plant secondary metabolites. They generally include endophytic bacteria, endophytic fungi, and endophytic actinomycetes.

[0003] At present, more than 130 endophytic bacteria covering 60 genera have been found in a large number of crops, medicinal plants, fruit trees and other economic crops. Common endophytic bacteria include Agrobacterium, Enterobacter, Bacillus, Pseudomonas, Methylobacterium, Pantoea and Agrobacterium. In the study of endophytic actinomycetes, Frankia is the most studied, while the study of endophytic fungi in plants is mostly on grasses, medicinal plants, marine plants, etc., but there are few studies on tobacco.

[0004] Endophytes live in tobacco for a long time, and the two have co-evolved. Studies have shown that Hui Feiqiong et al. found that under drought stress, inoculation with Indian pear-shaped spores can reduce the degree of damage to tobacco cell membranes, accumulate more cell osmotic regulating substances, and increase the expression of related drought-resistant genes in tobacco, thereby enhancing tobacco's drought resistance. Hamilton et al. believed that endophytic fungi can alleviate abiotic stress by changing the host's antioxidant capacity. Under drought stress, endophytic fungi colonize in the host and coexist with the host plant. The fungi interact with the plant to produce alkaloids, improve the plant's antioxidant capacity, and alleviate biological and abiotic stresses from the environment. Sun et al. believed that under drought stress, the thylakoid membrane-related Ca2+ receptors, CASmRNA levels, and CAS protein numbers of plants colonized by the endophytic fungus P. indica increased, increasing the plant's tolerance to drought stress. Shukla et al. also found that the colonization of plants by the endophytic fungus T. harzianum not only reduced the content of proline, MDA, and H2O2 in the plants, but also increased the content of phenols and MSI in the plants. Therefore, tobacco endophytic fungi are a new way to enhance tobacco leaves' resistance to stress and improve tobacco leaf production quality.

[0005] In our study on the endophytic fungi flora of K326, a dominant tobacco variety in Yunnan, a total of 154 endophytic fungi were isolated from tobacco K326 under different culture conditions, and identified as 72 species of 40 genera. Among them, 106 endophytic fungi were isolated from tobacco K326 under field growth conditions, identified as 62 species of 37 genera, 23 endophytic fungi were isolated from K326 cultured in water, identified as 11 species of 8 genera, and 25 endophytic fungi were isolated from K326 cultured in sterile soil, identified as 7 species of 4 genera. After screening, a total of 1 endophytic fungi significantly promoted the biomass and trait indicators of tobacco seedlings of different tobacco varieties. Summary of the invention

[0006] In order to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a tobacco seedling drought-resistant endophytic fungus W10 and its application, so as to provide a new method for improving the yield and quality of tobacco leaves.

[0007] To achieve the above object, the technical solution of the present invention is:

[0008] A tobacco seedling drought-resistant endophytic fungus W10, the deposit number of which is: CGMCC N0.41404; deposited on July 5, 2024 in the General Microbiological Center of China Microbiological Culture Collection Administration, address: No. 3, Yard No. 1, Beichen West Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing; obtained through the following channels:

[0009] A. Materials: Tobacco K326 plants harvested from the field were divided into six parts: upper leaves, middle leaves, lower leaves, tobacco stems, thick roots, and fibrous roots;

[0010] B. Disinfection: Upper leaves, middle leaves, and lower leaves: soak in 75% alcohol for 30 seconds, soak in 0.1% mercuric chloride for 15 seconds, and rinse with sterile water for 3 times; Tobacco stems: wipe the epidermis with 75% alcohol, and keep the cortex and pith; Thick roots and fibrous roots: soak in 75% alcohol for 60 seconds, soak in 0.1% mercuric chloride for 20 seconds, and rinse with sterile water for 3 times. The sterile water after the last rinse is streaked on the plate as a control to check whether the sample is thoroughly disinfected;

[0011] C. Inoculation and separation: add sterile water to the tobacco leaf part for grinding, and evenly spread the grinding liquid and residue on the surface of the culture medium; cut the tobacco stem part into 5-8mm small pieces with an inoculation knife and spread them on the surface of the culture medium; cut the thick root part into 3-5mm small sections with an inoculation knife, and spread the cut surface down on the surface of the culture medium; add sterile water to the fibrous root part for grinding, and evenly spread the grinding liquid and residue on the surface of the culture medium, and culture all the materials in a 28℃ constant temperature incubator for 5-7 days to observe the growth of the colony. Due to the different reproduction rates of different fungi, the faster growing strains can be separated and purified first, and the slower growing strains can be separated and purified after they are stable.

[0012] Further, solid culture: using potato dextrose agar medium (PDA) (46 g / L), adding streptomycin (10 mg / L) to prevent bacterial growth, the culture temperature is 28°C, and the culture time is 5 to 7 days;

[0013] The isolated different types of endophytic fungi were inoculated into PDA culture medium for purification, and the purification was repeated 2 to 3 times until the colonies were single. After screening, 3 functional endophytic fungi with drought resistance were obtained.

[0014] Furthermore, the above-mentioned endophytic fungi were identified as follows: the rDNA ITS of the strain was amplified by PCR using the universal fungal primers ITS1 / ITS4, and the ITS PCR amplification products were sequenced. The obtained sequences were searched by BLAST in the GenBank nuclear sequence database, and Chaetomium sp. W10 was found to have the highest homology with the reported ITS regions. Combined with morphological identification, the species of one endophytic fungus was determined.

[0015] The 1 tobacco endophytic fungus:

[0016] Chaetomium sp. W10,

[0017] The method for preparing the above-mentioned endophytic fungus application bacterial liquid with drought resistance function is to inoculate the above-mentioned endophytic fungus strain into 100 ml liquid culture medium, put it into a 250 ml conical flask, seal the bottle mouth with a film, and culture it on a shaker with a culture temperature of 30°C, a rotation speed of 220 rpm, and a culture time of 48 to 72 hours; liquid culture medium: potato glucose broth (25 g / L), add streptomycin (10 mg / L).

[0018] The method for applying the above-mentioned endophytic fungus solution with drought resistance function is to evenly pour 15 ml of the endophytic fungus solution (with hyphae and spores) into the soil matrix of the aboveground part and the root part of the tobacco seedlings.

[0019] The above-mentioned fungi were inoculated into tobacco seedlings of four different varieties, namely Honghua Dajinyuan, Yunyan 87, K326 and Yunyan 97. Based on the evaluation of indicators such as the relative water content and enzyme activity of the tobacco seedlings, the drought-resistant effects of these three endophytic fungi on the tobacco seedlings were further confirmed, providing basic support for their further application in production.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0021] The POD concentration and activity of four tobacco strains, Yunyan 87, Yunyan 97, K326 and Honghua Dajinyuan, treated with the sphaerocephala W10 of the present invention are all improved, and the sphaerocephala can significantly increase the POD concentration of K326; the POD concentration of Yunyan 87 under the action of the sphaerocephala W10 is higher than that of other drought-resistant strains.

[0022] Chaetomium globosum W10 can increase the SOD activity of four tobacco varieties, Yunyan 87, Yunyan 97, K326 and Honghua Dajinyuan. Chaetomium globosum can significantly increase the SOD concentration of Yunyan 87. Among the four tobacco varieties, the SOD concentration of Honghua Dajinyuan under the action of the drought-resistant strain of Chaetomium globosum is higher than that of other varieties. Chaetomium globosum has the strongest drought-resistant effect on Yunyan 87, and Chaetomium globosum also has the strongest effect on K326.

[0023] Chaetomium globosum W10 can increase the GSH concentration of four tobacco varieties: Yunyan 87, Yunyan 97, K326 and Honghua Dajinyuan. Chaetomium globosum can significantly increase the GSH concentration of Yunyan 87 and Honghua Dajinyuan. Chaetomium globosum has the strongest effect on Yunyan 87 and K326.

[0024] The CAT concentrations of four tobacco varieties, Yunyan 87, Yunyan 97, K326 and Honghua Dajinyuan, were all increased after treatment with Chaetomium globosum W10. Among them, Chaetomium globosum could significantly increase the CAT concentrations of Yunyan 97, K326 and Honghua Dajinyuan, and had the strongest effect on each tobacco variety.

[0025] The MDA concentrations of four tobacco varieties, Yunyan 87, Yunyan 97, K326 and Honghua Dajinyuan, were significantly reduced after treatment with Chaetomium globosum W10. Among them, Chaetomium globosum could significantly reduce the MDA concentrations of Yunyan 87 and Yunyan 97, but had no significant effect on K326 and Honghua Dajinyuan. Chaetomium globosum could significantly reduce the MDA concentration of Yunyan 87, and had the strongest effect on Yunyan 87. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
