Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2024; 108:24. [PMID: 38159115 DOI: 10.1007/s00253-023-12850-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2023] [Revised: 09/19/2023] [Accepted: 10/03/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
On the basis of good phosphate solubilization ability of a lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strain Limosilactobacillus sp. LF-17, bacterial agent was prepared and applied to calcareous soil to solubilize phosphate and promote the growth of maize seedlings in this study. A pot experiment showed that the plant growth indicators, phosphorus content, and related enzyme activity of the maize rhizospheric soils in the LF treatment (treated with LAB) were the highest compared with those of the JP treatment (treated with phosphate solubilizing bacteria, PSB) and the blank control (CK). The types of organic acids in maize rhizospheric soil were determined through LC-MS, and 12 acids were detected in all the treatments. The abundant microbes belonged to the genera of Lysobacter, Massilia, Methylbacillus, Brevundimonas, and Limosilactobacillus, and they were beneficial to dissolving phosphate or secreting growth-promoting phytohormones, which were obviously higher in the LF and JP treatments than in CK as analyzed by high-throughput metagenomic sequencing methods. In addition, the abundance values of several enzymes, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) orthology, and Carbohydrate-Active Enzymes (CAZys), which were related to substrate assimilation and metabolism, were the highest in the LF treatment. Therefore, aside from phosphate-solubilizing microorganisms, LAB can be used as environmentally friendly crop growth promoters in agriculture and provide another viable option for microbial fertilizers. KEY POINTS: • The inoculation of LAB strain effectively promoted the growth and chlorophyll synthesis of maize seedlings. • The inoculation of LAB strain significantly increased the TP content of maize seedlings and the AP concentration of the rhizosphere soil. • The inoculation of LAB strain increased the abundances of the dominant beneficial functional microbes in the rhizosphere soil.

Abstract
Ruminants enable the conversion of indigestible plant material into animal consumables, including dairy products, meat, and valuable fibers. Microbiome research is gaining popularity in livestock species because it aids in the knowledge of illnesses and efficiency processes in animals. In this study, we use WGS metagenomic data to thoroughly characterize the ruminal ecosystem of cows to infer positive and negative livestock traits determined by the microbiome. The rumen of cows from Argentina were described by combining different gene biomarkers, pathways composition and taxonomic information. Taxonomic characterization indicated that the two major phyla were Bacteroidetes and Firmicutes; in third place, Proteobacteria was highly represented followed by Actinobacteria; Prevotella, and Bacteroides were the most abundant genera. Functional profiling of carbohydrate-active enzymes indicated that members of the Glycoside Hydrolase (GH) class accounted for 52.2 to 55.6% of the total CAZymes detected, among them the most abundant were the oligosaccharide degrading enzymes. The diversity of GH families found suggested efficient hydrolysis of complex biomass. Genes of multidrug, macrolides, polymyxins, beta-lactams, rifamycins, tetracyclines, and bacitracin resistance were found below 0.12% of relative abundance. Furthermore, the clustering analysis of genera and genes that correlated to methane emissions or feed efficiency, suggested that the cows analysed could be regarded as low methane emitters and clustered with high feed efficiency reference animals. Finally, the combination of bioinformatic analyses used in this study can be applied to assess cattle traits difficult to measure and guide enhanced nutrition and breeding methods.
