چکیده

SUMMARY The impact of a Pseudomonas fluorescens strain, genetically modified for kanamycin resistance and lactose utilisation (the GMM), could be enhanced by soil amendment with lactose and kanamycin. Lactose addition decreased the shoot to root ratio of pea, and both soil amendments increased the populations of total culturable bacteria and the inoculated GMM. Only kanamycin perturbed the bacterial community structure, causing a shift towards slower growing organisms. The community structure with the GMM inocula in the presence of kanamycin showed the only impact of the GMM compared to the wild type inocula. The shift towards K strategy (slower growing organisms), found in the other kanamycin-amended treatments, was reduced with the GMM inoculation. Lactose amendment increased the acid and alkaline phosphatase, the phosphodiesterase activity and the carbon cycle enzyme activities, whereas the kanamycin addition only affected the alkaline phosphatase and phosphodiesterase activities. None of the soil enzyme activities were affected by the GMM under any of the soil amendments.

Effect of Insertion Site and Metabolic Load on the Environmental Fitness of a Genetically Modified Pseudomonas fluorescens Isolate.

An isolate of Pseudomonas fluorescens (SBW25) was modified with different marker genes (lacZY, aph-1, and xylE). These marker genes were inserted singly or in combination into two separate (1 Mbp apart) and presumably nonessential sites (-6- and Ee) on the chromosome of SBW25. This allowed the production of a range of genetically modified SBW25 variants that differed with respect to insertion s...

Carbon fractions in the rhizosphere of pea inoculated with 2,4 diacetylphloroglucinol producing and non-producing Pseudomonas fluorescens

The aim of this work was to determine the effect of wild type and functionally modified Pseudomonas fluorescens strains on C fractions in the rhizosphere of pea. The lacZY marked F113 strain produces the antibiotic 2,4 diacetylphloroglucinol (DAPG) useful in plant disease control. The modified strain of F113 was repressed in production of DAPG, creating the DAPG negative strain F113 G22. The F1...

Impact of a Recombinant Biocontrol Bacterium, Pseudomonas fluorescens pc78, on Microbial Community in Tomato Rhizosphere

Pseudomonas fluorescens pc78 is an effective biocontrol agent for soil-borne fungal diseases. We previously constructed a P43-gfp tagged biocontrol bacteria P. fluorescens pc78-48 to investigate bacterial traits in natural ecosystem and the environmental risk of genetically modified biocontrol bacteria in tomato rhizosphere. Fluctuation of culturable bacteria profile, microbial community struct...
