Abstract

Cassava is the third most important calorie source in tropical area after rice and corn. The microorganism associated with cassava roots may be potent and useful for application to promote plant growth. Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria  is a group of benefical bacteria that live in rhizosphere. The aim of this study was to isolate and to identify the potential Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) from cassava rhizosphere soil. The study consisted of isolation and identification of bacteria based on morphological and biochemical characters, hypersensitive reaction test, the ability to solubilize potassium and phosphate, and the ability to inhibit the growth of pathogen Sclerotium rolfsii. A total of nine bacteria isolates were succesfully isolated from Cassava rhizosphere soil. Those isolates suspected as Micrococcus sp.1, Micrococcus sp.2, Micrococcus sp.3, Micrococcus sp.4, Micrococcus sp.5, Micrococcus sp.6, Neisseria sp.1, Neisseria sp.2 and Bacillus sp. All nine isolates did not show hypersensitivity reactions. Only Neisseria sp.1 and Neisseria sp. 2 were able to solubilize potassium and phosphate. All isolates were able to inhibit the growth of S. rolfsii. The highest inhibition was done by Micrococcus sp.4 (51.46 %). The physical and chemical properties of cassava rhizosphere soil affected the type of bacteria found in this study. The result confirmed that the potential isolates obtained from cassava rhizosphere soil can be plant growth promoters. The present study suggested that PGPR isolates might have potential in future field applications as plant growth promoters or biocontrol agents.

Abstract

Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are a group of beneficial bacteria that live in rhizosphere. These bacteria can promote plant growth through several mechanisms, such as the ones produce indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) hormone and hydrogen cyanide (HCN), and act as biocontrol agents. The use of PGPR to promote plant growth has been known to be an environmentally friendly alternative approach. The aim of this study was to explore IAA and HCN producing rhizobacteria from cassava rhizosphere soil and identify the bacteria based on morphological and biochemical characters, hypersensitive reaction test, and the ability test to produce IAA and HCN. The results showed nine bacterial isolates suspected as Micrococcus sp. (six isolates), Neisseria sp. (two isolates), and Bacillus sp. (one isolate). All isolates were able to produce IAA in the concentration range of 50,63–135,00 µg/ml and 232,3–333,9 µg/ml at incubation time of 2 and 4 days, respectively. All isolates were able to produce HCN. In addition, the isolates did not show hypersensitivity reactions. Further study is needed to assess the isolate application for promoting plant growth as well as a biocontrol agent of plant pathogen.

Abstract

Goat’s milk is white liquid derived from ruminant types of dairy goats. Milk is one of habitats of lactic acid bacteria (LAB). LAB have a potential as antimicrobial because capable to kill the pathogenic bacteria. LAB isolated from Etawa crossbreed goat’s milk were characterized to stipulate the genus of the isolates. Characterization of LAB consists of colony, morphology and biochemical assay. The morphological examination of the colony, cell morphology and biochemical assay showed that three isolates were identified as Leuconostoc, Enterococcus and Lactobacillus. The antimicrobial activity assay showed that those isolates exhibited antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, but those isolates did not exhibit antifungal activity against Candida albicans.
