Abstract
Free-living bacteria may trigger the plant growth through production of phytohormones viz. gibberellins, auxins and cytokinins. A total 50 isolates of fluorescent Pseudomonas were screened for their ability to produce cytokinins such as isopentenyladenosine (IPA), dihydroxyzeatin riboside (DHZR) and zeatin riboside (ZR) as plant growth-promoting activity. Pseudomonas fluorescens AK1 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa AK2 were found higher phytohormones producing strains. Of the three cytokinins, IPA was the major cytokinin produced by both isolates in pure culture (5.5 and 2.9 pmol/ml, respectively) and with rice root exudates (5.9 and 3.4 pmol/ml, respectively). Production of ZR and DHZR for both organisms was found after 48 and 72 h. Amount of ZR and DHZR increased with time for both isolates in pure culture conditions. In presence of rice, production of ZR was increased 0.8 and 0.6 pmol/ml for P. fluorescence AK1 and P. aeruginosa AK2, respectively, in comparison with controls. There was no significant difference in the production of DHZR with rice exudates.
