Abstract

Several pathogenic bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and other pathogenic bacteria have developed resistance to many marketed antibiotics. Staphylococcus aureus is already resistant to several types of antibiotics such as penicillin, erythromycin, cefoxitin, levofloxacin, and clindamycin, Escherichia is resistant to several antibiotics such as Penicillin G, Cefotaxime, Tetracycline, Ampicillin, and Amoxicillin, Pseudomonas aeruginosa has been resistant to antibiotics that target ribosomes, such as tobramycin and tigecycline. The problem of resistance of several pathogenic bacteria can be overcome by finding new metabolite compounds from Actinomycetes microorganisms that have antibiotic potential by exploring extreme areas, one of which is in the karst area, especially in plant roots. Root sampling was carried out by taking samples + 20 cm on each type of plant found. Isolation of Actinomycetes bacteria was carried out using the plate method. Antibacterial activity testing was carried out using the line method. The morphological form of the spores was seen using a SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope). The results of the study found 2 isolates of isolated plant roots containing Actinomycetes bacteria. 2 isolates showed morphological characteristics of mycelium, oval and round in shape and had various colors. The results of the antibacterial activity test showed that each isolate could inhibit several types of pathogenic bacteria, seen from the clear zone with different diameters and the results of SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy) showed that 2 isolates had the same character and shape of spores as Actinomycetes, namely the genus Streptomyces.

Abstract

This quantitative descriptive research aimed to describe the antimicrobial activity and phylogenetic relationships of Actinomycetes from the rhizosphere of pandan (Pandanus spp.). Soil samples were taken from three different villages in Gorontalo Regency, including Bontula Village, Asparaga Sub-district, Lombongo Village, Suwawa Tengah Sub-district, and Moutong Village, Tilongkabila Sub-district, Bone Bolango Regency. Isolation was carried out using SCA media, resulting in six Actinomycetes isolates with different colony morphologies. Antimicrobial activity tests were carried out using the cross-streak method against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Candida albicans, Fusarium oxysporum, and Neocosmospora solani. The results showed that only one isolate, IRzP-at.k, showed significant antimicrobial activity, against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus with inhibition zones of 13,31 mm and 13,67 mm, respectively. The IRzP-at.k isolate also showed inhibition against Candida albicans and Fusarium oxysporum with inhibition zones of 34,12 mm and 11,25 mm, but did not show inhibition against Neocosmospora solani. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences identified the isolate as closely related to Streptomyces vinaceusdrappus (97.42% similarity). This research indicated the potential of the IRzP-at.k isolate as a source of new antimicrobial compounds and strengthens the role of the pandan rhizosphere as a habitat rich in Actinomycetes.
