Abstract
The present disclosure relates to bacterial inoculants, and methods for their use, to control a fungal root disease in a plant and promote plant growth in water limited conditions. In particular strains of Paenibacillus and Streptomyces are disclosed.
Claims38
A bacterial inoculant for controlling a fungal root disease on a wheat or canola plant.
A bacterial inoculant for improving growth of a canola plant under water limited conditions, wherein the bacterial inoculant includes a microorganism of the genus Paenibacillus having a 16S rRNA gene nucleotide sequence which is at least 98% identical to SEQ ID NO:
- 4.
A bacterial inoculant for improving growth of a canola plant under water limited conditions, wherein the bacterial inoculant includes a microorganism of the genus Paenibacillus sp. 9.4E as deposited under NMI accession number V17/004921;
- or a mutant or derivative of said deposited microorganism that retains the ability to improve growth in a canola plant under water limited conditions.
A bacterial inoculant for improving growth of a canola plant under water limited conditions, wherein the bacterial inoculant includes a microorganism of the genus Streptomyces having a 16S rRNA gene nucleotide sequence which is at least 98% identical to SEQ ID NO:
- 6.
A bacterial inoculant for improving growth of a canola plant under water limited conditions, wherein the bacterial inoculant includes a microorganism of the genus Streptomyces sp. BD141 as deposited under NMI accession number V17/004923;
- or a mutant or derivative of said deposited microorganism that retains the ability to improve growth in a canola plant under water limited conditions.
A method for improving growth of a canola plant under water limited conditions, the method comprising inoculating a canola plant with a bacterial inoculant or inoculant composition comprising a microorganism of the genus Paenibacillus having a 16S rRNA gene nucleotide sequence which is at least 98% identical to SEQ ID NO:
- 4.
A method for improving growth of a canola plant under water limited conditions, the method comprising inoculating a canola plant with a bacterial inoculant or inoculant composition comprising a microorganism of the genus Paenibacillus sp. 9.4E as deposited under NMI accession number V17/004921;
- or a mutant or derivative of said deposited microorganism that retains the ability to improve growth in a canola plant under water limited conditions.
A method for improving growth of a canola plant under water limited conditions, the method comprising inoculating a canola plant with a bacterial inoculant or inoculant composition comprising a microorganism of the genus Streptomyces having a 16S rRNA gene nucleotide sequence which is at least 98% identical to SEQ ID NO:
- 6.
A method for improving growth of a canola plant under water limited conditions, the method comprising inoculating a canola plant with a bacterial inoculant or inoculant composition comprising a microorganism of the genus Streptomyces sp. BD141 as deposited under NMI accession number V17/004923;
- or a mutant or derivative of said deposited microorganism that retains the ability to improve growth in a canola plant under water limited conditions.
A bacterial inoculant for improving growth of a canola plant under water limited conditions as hereinbefore described with respect to any of the examples.
An inoculant composition for improving growth of a canola plant under water limited conditions as hereinbefore described with respect to any of the examples.
A method for improving growth of a canola plant under water limited conditions as hereinbefore described with respect to any of the examples.
