Root hair deformation, bacterial attachment, and plant growth in wheat-azospirillum associations.

Abstract:

:Seven Azospirillum strains induced more deformation of root hairs of wheat than did strains of Rhizobium leguminosarum, Azotobacter chroococcum, or Escherichia coli. Azospirillum sp. strain Sp245 caused the most deformation. Strain Sp245 (isolated from surface sterile roots of wheat) and strain Sp7 (isolated from the rhizosphere of a forage grass) were compared with regard to their effects on root hair deformation, their attachment to roots, and their effects on the growth of four wheat cultivars. The amount of deformation caused by the two strains in the four cultivars increased in the following order: cv. Tobari, cv. Tonari, cv. BH1146, cv. Lagoa. Strain Sp245 attached to the roots of all cultivars in low numbers, and attachment did not increase with time (up to 48 h). Strain Sp7 attached in higher numbers, and attachment increased with time. Inoculation of the four cultivars of wheat had pronounced effects on root mass measured at maturity. The magnitude of the effects in the four cultivars increased in the following order: Tobari, Tonari, BH1146, Lagoa; these effects were progressively more positive for strain Sp245 and progressively more negative for strain Sp7. Concentrations of N in wheat did not vary substantially between cultivars or strains. Concentrations of K and P did not vary substantially between cultivars but did vary between strains, Sp245 effecting increases and Sp7 effecting decreases.
