Abstract:

This work aims to directly screen the microbial resources dissolving phytate phosphorus in Avena sativa rhizosphere from alpine grassland and plant growth promoting bacteria(PGPB)and to analyze the genes encodingphytase. The strains were isolated and screened using national botanical research institute's phosphate growth medium(NBRIP)and the 16S rRNA gene sequencing were used to identify the strains. The dominant strains were used to determine phytase activity and growth-promoting characteristics. The complete sequence of phytase was amplified by degenerate PCR and high-efficiency thermal asymmetric interleaved PCR(hiTAIL-PCR), and bioinformatics analysis and heterologous expression of new phytase. A total of 107 strains were obtained, of which 51 strains formed a clear phosphate solubilizing circle on NBRIP medium, and the strains belonged to two phyla, 10 families and 11 genera, which Pseudomonas(52.94%)were the predominant bacteria. Fourteen Pseudomonas sp. were detected to have phytase activity, and to have the growth-promoting ability of dissolving organic/inorganic phosphorus, secreting 3-indoleacetic acid(IAA), fixing nitrogen and antagonizing phytopathogenic fungi. Three BPPhy(PHY65, PHY101 and PHY131)sequences of strains were cloned from fourteen Pseudomonas sp., which were predicted to be β-propeller phytases(BPPhy)family proteins, and the specific activity of recombinant PHY65 was 28.2 U/mg. The results may provide excellent strain resources for the development and utilization of phosphate solubilizing agents, and provide a theoretical basis for the production and application of phytase.
