Indole-3-acetic acid, Bioprotection, Bacterial consortium, SalinityAbstract
Soil salinity severely affects physiological processes and xylem anatomy in Gmelina arborea. This study evaluated indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) production and biofilm formation by rhizobacteria, as well as the application of a bacterial consortium to mitigate salinity stress and protect G. arborea against Fusarium sp. The following bacteria were selected: Acinetobacter sp. BMR 2-2, A. calcoaceticus BMR2-12, E. asburiae BA4-19, PM3-14, and P. protegens CHA0. Bacteria CHA0 and PM 3-14 at 0.1 mM L-tryptophan exhibited the highest IAA production at 48 h, ranging from 29.25 to 25.68 μg mL-1. Strain BMR 2-2 exhibited a slow biofilm formation capacity. Application of the bacterial consortium in rhizotrons increased root hair length and surface area at three sampling positions along the main root, as well as root biomass under 100 mM NaCl stress. Overall, the bacterial consortium effectively mitigated salinity stress and Fusarium sp. infection; however, under severe stress conditions, root growth reduction and disease progression were still observed. This study demonstrates the potential of an IAA-producing rhizobacterial consortium as a biostimulant and biofilm former to enhance growth, salt stress tolerance, and resistance to Fusarium sp. infection, highlighting its relevance for the sustainable production of this forest species.
