Abstract

For the isolation of a plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria, strain YK-5 was selected from approximately 400 thermostable strains isolated from special soil samples. Strain YK-5 produced an antifungal compound, and optimum carbon and nitrogen sources for the production of the antifungal compound were investigated against Aspergillus flavus as a test strain. Modified LB medium containing 1% peptone, 1% yeast extract and 5% black sugar was determined to be the optimal medium for growth and antifungal compound production. Culture broth of strain YK-5 potently inhibited growth of the phytopathogenic fungus Fusarium oxysporum KACC 40052 for 7 days. The plant growth-promotion function of strain YK-5 was tested against radish and rice in pot trials. Leaf number, plant height and root length in YK-5-treated radish markedly exceeded (> 60%) those of untreated radish. Leaf length and white rootlet development were markedly more prominent than in commercially-treated rice plants. Strain YK-5 was determined to be Bacillus subtilis YK-5 by physiological, chemotaxonomical, and phylogenetical analyses.

식물성장 촉진 기능을 가지는 PGPR (plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria)균은 특수한 토양시료를 사용하여 내열성을 가지는 400개의 균주를 분리하였다. 이들 분리균주에서 선발한 공시균주 Bacillus sp. YK-5는 항진균성 물질을 생산하였으며, 시험균주 Asp. flavus를 대상으로 생산조건을 검토한 결과, 공시균주의 생육배지는 생육촉진효과와 식물병원균에 대한 방제를 위해 1% peptone 및 yeast extract, 5% black sugar가 함유된 modified LB배지를 사용하였다. 식물병원균에 대한 공시균주의 길항효과는 시험균주인 식물병원균 Fusarium oxysporum KACC 40052균에 대해 배양 7일째까지 강한 생육저해를 보였다. 공시균의 식물성장촉진능은 궁중무 및 벼를 대상으로 pot 실험한 결과, 궁중무의 경우 경엽수, 줄기의 길이 및 뿌리의 길이가 무처리구에 비해 약 60%이상 우수한 성장촉진효과를 나타내었으며, 벼의 경우 이식 후 시비 8일째 시판제품 처리구에 비해 공시균주 처리구는 잎의 길이와 흰 세근의 발달이 우수하여 뿌리의 발육에 현저한 생육촉진 효과를 나타내었다. 공시균주의 동정은 분자계통분류학적 분석 (형태, 배양, 생리, 화학적 및 분자생태학적 측면)에 의해 B. subtilis YK-5로 명명하였다.
