Resumen:
The major feature of the plant-growth-promoting bacteria Azospirillum brasilense is its ability to modify plant root architecture. In plants, nitric oxide (NO) mediates indole- 3-acetic acid (IAA)-signaling pathways leading to both lateral (LR) and adventitious (AR) root formation. Here, we analyzed aerobic NO production by A. brasilense Sp245 wild type (wt) and its mutants Faj009 (IAA-attenuated) and Faj164 (periplasmic nitrate reductase negative), and its correlation with tomato root-growth-promoting effects. The wt and Faj009 strains produced 120 nmol NO per gram of bacteria in aerated nitrate-containing medium. In contrast, Faj164 produced 5.6 nmol NO per gram of bacteria, indicating that aerobic denitrification could be considered an important source of NO. Inoculation of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum Mill.) seedlings with both wt and Faj009 induced LR and AR development. In contrast, Faj164 mutant was not able to promote LR or AR when seedlings grew in nitrate. When NO was removed with the NO scavenger 2-(4-carboxyphenyl)-4,4,5,5,-tetramethylimidazoline- 1-oxyl-3-oxide (cPTIO), both LR and AR formation were inhibited, providing evidence that NO mediated Faj009 induced LR and AR development. In contrast, Faj164 mutant was not able to promote LR or AR when seedlings grew in nitrate. When NO was removed with the NO scavenger 2-(4-carboxyphenyl)-4,4,5,5,-tetramethylimidazoline- 1-oxyl-3-oxide (cPTIO), both LR and AR formation were inhibited, providing evidence that NO mediated wild type (wt) and its mutants Faj009 (IAA-attenuated) and Faj164 (periplasmic nitrate reductase negative), and its correlation with tomato root-growth-promoting effects.
