| dc.description.abstract | In the present study, seventy five rhizobacterial isolates were obtained on the basis of morphological characteristics from wheat rhizosphere soil. These rhizobacterial isolates were screened for antagonistic interaction along with 13 reference strains against Rhizoctonia solani and Neovossia indica under in vitro conditions. Twenty three isolates showed antagonistic activity against R. solani and 33 isolates showed antagonistic activity against N. indica. Isolates BWA36, RWA42, RWA48, RWA53, HCA3, HCA61 and RCA3 showed significant growth inhibition against R. solani, whereas isolates BWA6, BWA19, BWA23, RWA48, RWA53, HCA61 and RCA3 showed the inhibition against N. indica. Thirty four selected antagonistic bacteria were studied for their effect on root and shoot growth of Avena fatua seedlings on 0.8% water agar plates. Eight rhizobacterial isolates BWA6, BWA19, BWA29, RWA48, RWA55, RWA63, RWA71 and HCA61 showed root growth inhibition at both 5th and 10th day of seed germination. Bacterial isolates i.e. BWA6, BWA19, BWA29, BWA38, RWA48, HCA61 and JMM24 caused shoot growth inhibition at both 5th and 10th day of seed germination of A.fatua. Culture filtrate of selected cultures were sprayed on 1-week and 2-weeks old Avena fatua and wheat seedlings. Isolates BWA25, BWA29, RCA3 and SYB101 caused yellowing of leaves, whereas two rhizobacterial isolates BWA18 and RWA52 caused appearance of disease spot on weed. IAA production in selected rhizobacterial isolates and it varied from 3.49 to 53.80 μg/ml. Significant ALA production (> 7 μg/ml) was observed in bacterial isolates BWA25, HCA61, RCA3, HCA3 and SYB101. ACC utilization was observed in 85.29% bacterial isolates and five isolates i.e., BWA20, BWA23, BWA29, BWA38 and RCA3 showed significant growth on ACC supplemented plates. Four bacterial isolates BWA25, BWA52, RWA53 and RCA3 showed significant HCN production. Ten bacterial isolates i.e., BWA2, BWA18, BWA25, BWA29, RWA48, RWA52, RWA69, SYB101, HCA61 and RCA3 were selected on the basis of different beneficial properties to study their inoculation effect on growth of wheat and weed under pot house conditions. Rhizobacterial isolates BWA18, RWA52, RWA69 and SYB101 stimulated growth of wheat and rhizobacterial isolates i.e., BWA18, BWA29 and RWA52 inhibited the growth of A. fatua in comparison to RDF amended uninoculated soil treatment. At 25 days of observation, bacterial isolate BWA18, RWA69, SYB101 showed significant increase in root dry weight (RDW) and shoot dry weight (SDW) of wheat, whereas its inoculation decreased RDW and SDW of A. fatua. At 50 days of observation, inoculation of bacterial isolates BWA18 and RWA48 increased RDW and SDW of wheat and weed both. Isolates RWA69 and SYB101 showed significant increase in RDW and SDW of wheat, whereas its inoculation decreased RDW and SDW of A. fatua. At 75 days of observation, inoculation with bacterial isolates RWA52, RWA69 and SYB101 caused significant increase in RDW and SDW of wheat, whereas its inoculation decreased RDW and SDW of A. fatua as compared to RDF amended uninoculated soil. Rhizobacterial isolates BWA18, RWA52 and RWA69 were identified as Acinetobacter variabilis, Bacillus siamensis and Bacillus endophyticus, respectively by the 16S rRNA sequence analysis. These bacterial isolates could be further exploited as bioherbicide for wild oat and growth improvement of wheat under field conditions. | en_US |
