Cd-tolerant SY-2 strain of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia : a potential PGPR, isolated from the Nanjing mining area in China.
3 Biotech 2020 December
Microbial and plant assisted bioremediation is an emerging way for the remediation of soils polluted with heavy metals. To screen the cadmium tolerant bacteria, soil samples were collected from Nanjing mining area, China. The average cadmium content of the mine soil reached 45.71 mg/kg, which was indicating serious pollution and potential ecological risk. From the mine soil, six cadmium tolerant plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) were isolated. The isolated bacterial strain "SY-2" showed maximum cadmium tolerance and it was selected for further experimentation. This strain was identified as Stenotrophomonas maltophilia by 16S rRNA gene sequencing (GenBank accession number MG597057). SY-2 was found to tolerate maximum cadmium at 1.0 mM concentration. This strain also exhibited good adsorption capacity (up to 35.7%) of heavy metal at 0.5 mM concentration. The results of this study exhibited organic phosphorus solubilization (37.08 mg/L) and IAA biosynthesis (15.11 mg/L) ability of isolated S. maltophilia . Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed cell shrinkage and the cell wall of S. maltophilia was very rough. Moreover, the energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis endorsed the adsorption of Cd ions on the surface of biomass. FT-IR study described the presence of functional groups and the nature of chemical bonds, before and after cadmium stress. At 0.25 mM cadmium concentration, S. maltophilia treated seeds of Capsicum annuum L . developed 1.46 times longer roots than untreated seeds. The results of this study helped us to conclude that SY-2 strain of S. maltophilia possesses significant metal tolerance and bioremediation potential against cadmium. In the future, this strain can be used as a microbial remediation agent to detoxify heavy metals in contaminated soils.
