Resumen

ESPINOSA-ZARAGOZA, Saúl et al. IDENTIFICATION OF ENDOPHYTIC BACTERIA OF SEEDS FROM Cedrela odorata L. (Meliaceae) WITH BIOTECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS. Acta biol.Colomb. [online]. 2021, vol.26, n.2, pp.196-206.  Epub 18-Ene-2022. ISSN 0120-548X.  https://doi.org/10.15446/abc.v26n2.85325.

In the present study, 62 endophytic bacterial strains of cedar seeds (Cedrela odorata L.), collected in the municipalities of Huehuetán, Motozintla, and Pijijiapan in the state of Chiapas, Mexico were isolated. The goal was to identify characteristics of biotechnological interest such as biocontrol, promotion ofplant growth, and growth in aromatic compounds. The strains were identified by the partial sequence of the 16S ribosomal gene as belonging to the Bacillus genus. The biocontrol capacity of phytopathogenic fungi, production of indoleacetic acid (IAA), solubilization of phosphate, and growth in xenobiotic compounds (phenanthrene, benzene, anthracene, or phenol) were detected in 26 strains of the 62 isolates. 21 % of the strains inhibited the mycelial growth of Alternaria solani and Fusarium sp., and 13 % of the Phytophthora capsici oomycete. IAA production was detected in 24 isolates, phosphate solubilizing activity was identified in 18 isolates, while the ability to grow in the presence of phenanthrene and benzene was found in 26 isolates; 24 isolates grew in the presence of anthracene and only two isolates grew in phenol as the only carbon sources. This is the first report of the isolation and identification of endophytic bacteria from cedar seeds, where biotechnological characteristics were detected for biological control, promotion of plant growth, and growth in the presence of xenobiotic compounds.
