    Enhancing agriculture recovery of Phaseolus vulgaris L. and Cucurbita pepo L. with Olea europaea L. plant growth promoting rhizobacteria
    (CSIRO, 2022) Hadjouti, Rima; Mohand Kaci, H.; Benzina, F.; Furze, J.N.
    The rhizosphere is an environment created by interactions between root exudates and microorganisms. Interactions are beneficial due to certain components having a plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) effect. Aims. This study consists of the isolation, screening of PGPR from the rhizosphere of Olea europaea L. of a Mediterranean climatic region in Algeria and the study of their effects on growth of two agronomic vegetables Phaseolus vulgaris L. and Cucurbita pepo L. Methods. Based on their ability to produce the PGPR molecules indole-3- acetic acid (IAA), phosphatase and siderophores, three rhizobacteria (S25, S75, and S79) were chosen for in vivo tests and capacity to produce the cell wall degrading enzymes chitinase, lipase, protease, glucanase, cellulase, and and phospholipase. They were also examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and analysed using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionisation time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) for identification. Key results. Bacterial strains identified as Bacillus cereus and Bacillus thuringiensis were able to enhance significantly germination of the two vegetables at P < 0.001. Vegetative parameters of C. pepo were significantly affected by the bacterial inoculation. We noted increases in stem length (P < 0.05), number of flowers (P < 0.01), and root length (P < 0.001). Conclusion. The bacterial isolates of this study provide biological options in treatments originating from alternate hosts. Implications. They provide hope for companion/intercrop planting schemes, leading to optimisation of agricultural yields in agroecological blends.

    Trichoderma species have been widely recognized as biofertilizer fungi for their ability to produce phytohormones and enhancing plant growth. In our current study, fifteen strains of Trichoderma spp (T1- T15) were screened for their capacity to produce phytohormones and metabolites eliciting plant growth. The stains were previously isolated from olive rhizosphere soil in northern Algeria. Plant growth promoting (PGP) potential of Trichoderma spp. was evaluated in-vitro through the production of phosphatases, iron chelators (siderophores), cyanhydric acid (HCN) and ammonia (NH3). Besides, Plant growth phytohormones such as gibberellic acid and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) were assessed quantitatively by a colorimetric assay. Results showed an effective potential of Trichoderma isolates in PGP biomolecules production. Importantly, qualitative estimation of phosphate solubilization indicates that T10 gave the highest P-solubilization on medium Pikovskaya’s with a solubilization index (SI) of 3, whereas, the high capacity nitrogen-fixing was related to T8. In other hand, quantitative analysis of IAA and gibberellic acid revealed a production varying between (1.30 µg mL − 1 − 21.15 µg mL − 1 ) and (0.53µg/ml − 7.87µg/ml), respectively, the highest amount of both phytohormones was obtained by T11 isolate. Indeed, analysis of ethyl acetate extracts of T11 isolate by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) revealed a high amount (71.19 mgL − 1 ) of IAA. Overall, Results showed clearly that isolate T11 has promising plant growth promoting properties. Hence, this native Trichoderma isolate (T11) identified as Trichoderma harzianum strain (OL587563) could be used later as biofertilizer for sustainable olive crop agriculture
