Abstract
Pseudomonas sp. AW4 is a highly arsenic (As) resistant bacterium with plant growth promoting properties, originally isolated from the soybean (Glycine max L.) rhizosphere. In order to safely use this isolate in diverse bioformulations, its characterization needs to be completed and a reliable identification must be provided. In the present work, we analyzed the morpho-physiological, biochemical and genomic characteristics of Pseudomonas sp. AW4. Identification of the isolate varied according to the parameters analyzed, mainly biochemical and physiological tests or individual genes and phylogenetic analyses. In this regard, we performed massive sequencing of its genome, in order to consistently complete its characterization and identification. Pseudomonas sp. AW4 formed a monophyletic clade with P. urmiensis SWRI10, presenting 3.08 % of unique genes against this reference isolate. More than 70 % of AW4 genes were also shared with P. oryziphila strain 1257 NZ and with P. reidholzensis strain CCOS 865. The search for genes related to As resistance evidenced the presence of the operon arsHRBC. Taken together, results of the present work allow identification of this bacterium as Pseudomonas urmiensis AW4 and open up a number of opportunities to study this strain and understand the mechanisms of arsenic resistance and plant growth promotion.
期刊介绍:
Research in Microbiology is the direct descendant of the original Pasteur periodical entitled Annales de l''Institut Pasteur, created in 1887 by Emile Duclaux under the patronage of Louis Pasteur. The Editorial Committee included Chamberland, Grancher, Nocard, Roux and Straus, and the first issue began with Louis Pasteur''s "Lettre sur la Rage" which clearly defines the spirit of the journal:"You have informed me, my dear Duclaux, that you intend to start a monthly collection of articles entitled "Annales de l''Institut Pasteur". You will be rendering a service that will be appreciated by the ever increasing number of young scientists who are attracted to microbiological studies. In your Annales, our laboratory research will of course occupy a central position, but the work from outside groups that you intend to publish will be a source of competitive stimulation for all of us."That first volume included 53 articles as well as critical reviews and book reviews. From that time on, the Annales appeared regularly every month, without interruption, even during the two world wars. Although the journal has undergone many changes over the past 100 years (in the title, the format, the language) reflecting the evolution in scientific publishing, it has consistently maintained the Pasteur tradition by publishing original reports on all aspects of microbiology.
