ABSTRACT
Arthrobacter ureafaciens DnL1-1 is a bacterium used for atrazine degradation, while Trichoderma harzianum LTR-2 is a widely used biocontrol fungus. In this study, a liquid co-cultivation of these two organisms was initially tested. The significant changes in the metabolome of fermentation liquors were investigated based on cultivation techniques (single-cultured and co-cultured DnL1-1 and LTR-2) using an UPLC-QTOF-MS in an untargeted metabolomic approach. Principle components analysis (PCA) and partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) supervised modelling revealed modifications of the metabolic profiles in fermentation liquors as a function of interactions between different strains. Compared with pure-cultivation of DnL1-1, 51 compounds were altered during the cocultivation, with unique and significant differences in the abundance of organic nitrogen compounds (e.g. carnitine, acylcarnitine 40, acylcarnitine 50, 3-dehydroxycarnitine and O-acetyl-L-carnitine) and trans-zeatin riboside. Nevertheless, compared with pure-cultivation of LTR-2, the abundance of 157 compounds, including amino acids, soluble sugars, organic acids, indoles and derivatives, nucleosides, and others, changed significantly in the cocultivation. Among them, the concentration of tryptophan, which is a precursor to indoleacetic acid, indoleacetic acid, aspartic acid, and L-glutamic acid increased while that of most soluble sugars decreased upon cocultivation. The fermentation filtrates of co-cultivation of LTR-2 and DnL1-1 showed significant promoting effects on germination and radicle length of wheat. A subsequent experiment demonstrated synergistic effects of differential metabolites caused by co-cultivation of DnL1-1 and LTR-2 on wheat germination. Comprehensive metabolic profiling may provide valuable information on the effects of DnL1-1 and LTR-2 on wheat growth.(AU)
