Journal Article
Composition, diversity and bioactivity of culturable bacterial endophytes in mountain-cultivated ginseng in Korea
2017
Overview
Plants harbor diverse communities of bacterial species in their internal compartments. Here we isolated and identified bacterial endophytes from mountain-cultivated ginseng (MCG,
Panax ginseng
Meyer) to make working collection of endophytes and exploit their potentially beneficial properties toward plants and human being. A total of 1,886 bacteria were isolated from root, stem and leaf of MCGs grown in 24 different sites across the nation, using culture-dependent approach. Sequencing of 16S rDNA allowed us to classify them into 252 distinct groups. Taxonomic binning of them resulted in 117 operational taxonomic units (OTUs). Analysis of diversity indices across sampling sites and tissues suggested that composition of bacterial endophyte community within ginseng could differ substantially from one site to the next as well as from one host compartment to another. Assessment of 252 bacterial isolates for their beneficial traits to host plants showed that some bacteria possesses the ability to promote plant growth and produce ß-glucosidase, indicating their potential roles in plant growth promotion and bio-transformation. Taken together, our work provides not only valuable resources for utilization of bacterial endophytes in ginseng but also insights into bacterial communities inside a plant of medicinal importance.
