Salt stress, as one of the most severe environmental stresses, can cause a series of changes in plants. However, the explanation of plant salt stress alleviating mechanism of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) was hindered by the limited availability of transcriptomic information for salt stress-treated plants grown in a microorganism-controlled environment. Our previous reports have selected Bacillus atrophaeus WU-9 as PGPR significantly alleviating pepper (Capsicum frutescens. L) salt stress. In this work, the RNA-seq analysis of salt stress-treated and untreated plants, grown with and without WU-9 in a microorganism-controlled environment, was used to reveal the plant salt stress alleviating mechanisms of WU-9. Twelve sequencing libraries, prepared by treating with WU-9 and salt (150 mM NaCl for 36 h), were constructed by RNA-Seq technique. Non-inoculated seedlings mainly respond to salt stress through regulation of signal transduction, such as ethylene-activated signaling pathway, signaling and cell communication, etc. And ethylene signal participated in salt stress response in pepper through regulating defense responses, fruit ripening and senescence. WU-9 inoculation under salt stress mainly improves salt tolerance and plant growth by regulating salt stress-responding ethylene and auxin signal transduction, utilization of proline, photosynthesis, antioxidant enzyme activities and cell enlargement. Furthermore, 86 differentially expressed genes and 20 transcription factors were identified as associated with salt stress response and tolerance. Thus, this innovative transcriptomic study identified the salt stress response and alleviation in C. frutescens. L with PGPR inoculation. This result provided novel insights into the salinity alleviation in pepper regulated by PGPR.
