Isolation, Identification and Bioactivity Assays of Endophytic Bacteria Associated with Taxus chinensis / 微生物学通报

ABSTRACT

Two endophytic-bacteria isolates of G18 and F19 were isolated from the stem of Taxus chinensis. The G18 and F19 were respectively classified into Psudomonas sp. and Stenotrophomonas sp. based on biological characteristics and 16S rDNA sequence analysis. The bioactivity analysis showed that the fermented broths of the G18 and F19 exhibited antagonistic activities against three pathogenic bacteria, and had good antagonistic effectiveness to Verticillium dahliae and Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, respectively. The G18 can degrade salicylic acid, and the F19 can do dichlorvos.
