Azospirillum brasilense promotes increases in growth and nitrogen use efficiency of maize genotypes URL: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6472877/ Journal : PLOS ONE (2019) Mode of Action Azospirillum brasilense: Mode of Action Biological Nitrogen Fixation Mechanism Azospirillum brasilense converts atmospheric nitrogen (N₂) into plant-available ammonium (NH₄⁺) through the nitrogenase enzyme complex under microaerobic conditions. The enzyme consists of two essential components: the dinitrogenase protein (MoFe protein, encoded by nifDK ) containing a molybdenum-iron cofactor where N₂ reduction occurs, and the dinitrogenase reductase protein (Fe protein, encoded by nifH ) that transfers electrons to the nitrogenase protein. ( academic.oup+1 ) Regulatory Control Systems Transcriptional Regulation The nitrogen fixation genes are organized in a major 30 kb nif gene cluster containing the nifHDK operon, with separately transcribed nifA and nifB genes. Expression is controlled by the NtrBC two-component regulatory system and the alternative sigma factor σ⁵⁴ (RpoN). Unlike Klebsiella pneumoniae , transcription of nifA in A. brasilense does not require NtrBC, and nifHDK expression is primarily controlled through posttranslational regulation of NifA activity . ( pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih+1 ) Post-translational Regulation A. brasilense employs a sophisticated dual regulatory mechanism for rapid nitrogenase inactivation. The primary system involves reversible ADP-ribosylation of the nitrogenase Fe protein mediated by DraT (dinitrogenase reductase ADP-ribosyltransferase) and DraG (dinitrogenase reductase activating glycohydrolase) enzymes. A second independent mechanism exists that can partially inhibit nitrogenase activity in response to ammonium, even when ADP-ribosylation is eliminated.( pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih+2 ) Phytohormone Production and Root Morphology Alteration Indole-3-Acetic Acid (IAA) Biosynthesis A. brasilense produces significant amounts of IAA through the indole-3-pyruvate (IPyA) pathway . The key enzyme indole-3-pyruvate decarboxylase (IpdC) converts indole-3-pyruvic acid to IAA, with the ipdC gene being essential for bacterial IAA production . IAA production reaches 10.8 μg/ml in strain Cd and varies significantly between strains . (springer+4 ) IAA serves a dual function - it promotes plant growth while also protecting the bacterium from toxic effects of indole intermediates by maintaining membrane potential homeostasis and regulating bacterial translation. ipdC mutants show reduced growth rates, altered physiology, and more depolarized membrane potential compared to wild-type strains. ( pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih+1 ) Additional Phytohormones A. brasilense produces multiple plant hormones including gibberellic acid (GA₃) at concentrations up to 0.66 μg/ml , zeatin (cytokinin) up to 2.37 μg/ml , abscisic acid (ABA) up to 0.077 μg/ml , and ethylene . The bacterium can hydrolyze GA₂₀-glucosyl conjugates and perform 3β-hydroxylation to convert GA₂₀ to bioactive GA₁. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih+2 Root Architecture Modification IAA produced by A. brasilense causes dramatic changes in root morphology including decreased primary root length and increased root hair formation . These effects are completely abolished in ipdC mutants and can be mimicked by exogenous IAA application . The altered root architecture enables plants to explore larger soil volumes for nutrient and water acquisition. academic.oup+1 Root Colonization and Chemotaxis Mechanisms Motility-Dependent Colonization A. brasilense employs active motility and chemotaxis as essential mechanisms for root surface colonization. Motile strains can travel from inoculated roots to non-inoculated roots, forming characteristic band-type colonization patterns composed of bacterial aggregates encircling limited root regions. Non-motile mutants remain at inoculation sites and show severely impaired colonization ability. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih+2 Energy Taxis and Chemical Sensing Root colonization is mediated by energy taxis through the Tlp1 transducer protein . A. brasilense navigates toward metabolizable compounds in root exudates that affect intracellular energy levels. The bacterium responds to specific chemicals including organic acids (malate, succinate), sugars , and amino acids found in root exudates. Metabolism-dependent chemotaxis contributes to the broad host range observed in Azospirillum -plant associations. journals.asm+2 Two-Phase Attachment Process Colonization involves a two-step process : initial adsorption mediated by the polar flagellum whose flagellin protein facilitates motility-dependent attachment, followed by anchoring through surface polysaccharides that enable stable root surface colonization. ( academic.oup+1 ) Stress Tolerance and ACC Deaminase Activity Ethylene Regulation A. brasilense produces ACC deaminase enzyme which cleaves the ethylene precursor 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) into ammonia and α-ketobutyrate . This reduces plant ethylene levels during stress conditions, preventing growth-inhibitory effects of stress ethylene. ACC deaminase activity is constitutively expressed but can be enhanced under stress conditions. ( pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih+1 ) Plants treated with ACC deaminase-producing A. brasilense show enhanced stress tolerance to flooding, drought, salinity, pathogen attack, and metal toxicity. The bacterium itself contains a functional ethylene receptor (AzoEtr1) that responds to plant ethylene signals.( nature+2 ) Multiple Stress Protection Mechanisms A. brasilense confers stress tolerance through various mechanisms including osmotic adjustment , antioxidant enzyme activation , and synthesis of stress-protective compounds like trehalose . The bacterium modifies plant ion selectivity during salt stress, restricting sodium uptake while promoting potassium absorption. ( frontiersin+1 ) Biofilm Formation and Surface Colonization Cyclic-di-GMP Regulation Biofilm formation is regulated by the c-di-GMP signaling system involving diguanylate cyclases like CdgA . The cdgA gene is essential for biofilm formation and exopolysaccharide (EPS) production . Biofilms consist of bacterial aggregates embedded in a matrix of EPS , extracellular DNA , and fibrillar material . pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih+2 Ethylene-Mediated Biofilm Modulation Plant ethylene reduces biofilm formation in A. brasilense through the AzoEtr1 ethylene receptor. Ethylene treatment decreases EPS production and cell aggregation , preventing surface attachment. This represents a novel cross-kingdom signaling mechanism where plant hormones directly influence bacterial colonization behavior.( pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih ) Mineral Nutrition Enhancement Phosphate Availability While A. brasilense strains Cd and Az39 show limited phosphate solubilization ability in standard assays , some strains can solubilize phosphate through organic acid production that reduces medium pH. Co-inoculation with specialized phosphate-solubilizing bacteria enhances phosphate availability. ( citeseerx.ist .psu+3 ) Iron Acquisition and Siderophore Production A. brasilense strains show variable siderophore production depending on strain and culture conditions. While strains Cd and Az39 tested negative for siderophore production in standard assays, other studies suggest potential iron chelation mechanisms exist. ( pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih+1 ) Polyamine Production A. brasilense produces significant quantities of polyamines including spermidine (up to 155 nmol/ml), putrescine , spermine , and cadaverine . Polyamines function as growth regulators and stress protectants , with production patterns influenced by culture medium composition . ( citeseerx.ist .psu+1 ) Agricultural Field Performance Yield Enhancement Mechanisms Field studies demonstrate that A. brasilense inoculation can substitute for 25-50% of nitrogen fertilizer applications without yield reduction. Meta-analyses of Brazilian field trials show consistent positive responses in maize and wheat yields. The bacterium's effectiveness results from the synergistic combination of nitrogen fixation, phytohormone production, stress tolerance enhancement, and improved nutrient uptake.( pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih+3 ) Survival and Persistence A. brasilense survives on root surfaces for several weeks under field conditions, maintaining populations sufficient for continued plant growth promotion. The bacterium forms protective biofilms that enhance survival under environmental stress.( nature+2 ) Additional Info Recommended Crops: Cereals , Millets, Pulses, Oilseeds, Fibre Crops, Sugar Crops, Forage Crops, Plantation crops, Vegetables, Fruits, Spices, Flowers, Medicinal crops, Aromatic Crops, Orchards, and Ornamentals.

Azospirillum lipoferum is a diazotrophic bacterium that colonizes the rhizosphere and endorhizally associates with plant roots. Through biological nitrogen fixation via the nitrogenase enzyme complex, it converts atmospheric N₂ into bioavailable ammonia, enhancing plant nitrogen nutrition. Additionally, it synthesizes phytohormones (indole-3-acetic acid, gibberellins) that modulate root architecture—promoting lateral root proliferation and root hair elongation—thereby increasing absorptive surface area and nutrient uptake efficiency. How is Azospirillum lipoferum formulated and applied in agronomic practice? – Seed Inoculation: Prepare a peat-based carrier formulation containing ≥10⁸ CFU/g. Coat seeds at 10 g inoculant per kg seed, ensuring uniform adhesion with an adhesive such as sterile sucrose solution. Air-dry for 30–60 minutes prior to sowing. – Seedling Root Dip: Suspend 100 g of inoculum in 10 L of sterile water and dip root systems of nursery seedlings for 15 minutes before transplanting. – Soil Amendment: Incorporate 3–5 kg inoculant per hectare into the top 10 cm of soil, preferably mixed with well-decomposed organic manure. – Liquid Delivery: Dissolve 3 kg inoculant in 1,000 L of irrigation water and apply via drip or furrow irrigation systems to distribute cells throughout the rhizosphere. Which agronomic crops demonstrate optimal responsiveness to Azospirillum lipoferum inoculation? Field and greenhouse trials indicate significant yield and biomass improvements in Poaceae (wheat, maize, rice, sorghum), Fabaceae (pulses), Brassicaceae (oilseeds), Solanaceae (tomato, pepper), and Cucurbitaceae (cucumber, melon). Enhanced root development and N-use efficiency have been documented across cereals, legumes, oilseeds, horticultural, and fiber crops. What compatibility and biosafety considerations apply to Azospirillum lipoferum applications? Azospirillum lipoferum formulations are biosafe, exhibiting no pathogenicity to plants, humans, or animals. The bacterium is compatible with organic amendments, biofertilizers, and select biopesticides. Physical or chemical incompatibilities may arise when co-applied with high concentrations of synthetic fertilizers or broad-spectrum biocides; sequential rather than simultaneous application is recommended to maintain cell viability. What are the recommended storage conditions and shelf life parameters for Azospirillum lipoferum inoculants? Maintain formulations at 4–10 °C in moisture-proof, opaque packaging. Under these conditions, viable cell counts remain ≥10⁷ CFU/g for 9–12 months post-manufacture. Prolonged exposure to temperatures above 25 °C or high relative humidity reduces survival rates and inoculum efficacy. By what mechanisms does Azospirillum brasilense enhance plant growth and stress tolerance? Azospirillum brasilense is a facultative endophyte that fixates atmospheric nitrogen via nitrogenase activity and secretes a suite of phytohormones (auxins, cytokinins, gibberellins). It also produces exopolysaccharides that improve soil aggregation and water retention. Through phosphorus solubilization (organic acid secretion) and induced systemic tolerance—mediated by modulation of stress-responsive gene expression—A. brasilense ameliorates abiotic stresses such as drought and salinity. What application methodologies are employed for Azospirillum brasilense in crop production? – Seed Coating: Utilize a carrier-based formulation (≥10⁸ CFU/g) at 10 g per kg of seed, combined with a polymeric sticker to ensure uniform adhesion. – Soil Application: Distribute 3–5 kg inoculant per hectare by broadcasting or banding, integrating with organic fertilizer or compost. – Irrigation Integration: Infuse 3 kg inoculant into 1,000 L irrigation solution and apply through drip or sprinkler systems to achieve homogeneous microbial delivery. Which crop species exhibit pronounced yield responses to Azospirillum brasilense? Empirical studies demonstrate yield enhancements in cereals (wheat, maize, rice), legumes (soybean, chickpea), oilseeds (canola, sunflower), and various vegetables (tomato, eggplant) when inoculated with A. brasilense under both irrigated and rainfed conditions. How does Azospirillum brasilense interact at the molecular level with host plants? Upon root colonization, A. brasilense secretes signaling molecules—N-acyl homoserine lactones and lipo-chitin oligosaccharides—that trigger root gene networks involved in nutrient transport and stress responses. The bacterium’s nitrogenase complex reduces N₂, while secreted indole-3-acetic acid influences auxin-responsive transcription factors, collectively fostering root proliferation and enhanced nutrient assimilation. Are there any safety or environmental risks associated with Azospirillum brasilense use? A. brasilense poses negligible biosafety risks; it is non-pathogenic to non-target organisms and does not persist as a pollutant in soil ecosystems. Compatibility with most agrochemicals is high, though cell viability may decrease in the presence of potent oxidizing agents or extreme pH conditions.

FAQ When to Add Blood Meal to the Garden Blood meal is best added when a soil test or plant symptoms indicate nitrogen deficiency, such as yellowing older leaves, weak stems, and slow growth. Many growers apply it in early spring to support vegetative growth and again mid-season for heavy feeders if foliage starts to pale, especially in intensively used beds. [5][2][3] How to Use Blood Meal as Fertilizer Blood meal is typically applied as a dry powder and worked into the top few centimeters of soil or used as a side-dress around established plants, then watered in thoroughly. For home gardens, common rates are about 2–3 pounds (roughly 1–1.5 kg) per 100 square feet, or 1–2 teaspoons per planting hole or per plant for side-dressing, always following product-specific instructions to avoid over-application. [2] [3] [4] What Plants Is Blood Meal Good For? Blood meal is especially beneficial for nitrogen-hungry, leafy and vegetative crops such as brassicas (cabbage, broccoli, kale), corn, squash, onions, and leafy greens like spinach and lettuce. It also supports vigorous foliage on ornamentals and lawns where rapid green-up is desired, provided soil pH and other nutrients are in balance. [6] [3] [7] [5] Can You Sprinkle Blood Meal on Top of Soil? Blood meal can be sprinkled on the soil surface as a top-dress and then lightly scratched in or watered in so it contacts moist soil and begins to break down. Leaving it fully exposed on the surface is less efficient and may attract animals, so a light incorporation into the top 2–5 cm of soil is usually recommended. [3] [2] Which Plants Don’t Like Blood and Bone? Plants that prefer low-nutrient or lean, free-draining soils—such as many succulents, cacti, some Mediterranean herbs, and some heathers and lobelias—often do poorly with rich blood-and-bone type fertilizers because excess nitrogen and phosphorus can cause weak, lush growth or root stress. Nitrogen-fixing legumes such as peas and beans also usually do not need blood meal, as additional nitrogen adds little benefit and may even reduce nodulation. [8] [9] [10] [3] How to Apply Blood Meal to Correct Depleted Nitrogen To correct clearly depleted nitrogen, start by confirming deficiency with a soil test or consistent symptoms (pale, yellowing older leaves and slow growth across the bed). Then apply blood meal at label rates (commonly 2–3 lbs per 100 sq ft or a light side-dress band around plants), water it in well, and re-check growth over the next 1–3 weeks, avoiding repeated heavy doses that could over-acidify soil or burn roots. [4] [2] [3] Blood Meal Use in the Garden When to add blood meal to the garden? Apply blood meal in early spring at planting, and again mid-season if a soil test or clear yellowing of older leaves indicates nitrogen deficiency, especially in heavily cropped beds. [5] [2] [3] How to use blood meal as fertilizer? Mix the recommended amount into the top few centimeters of soil before planting, or side-dress established plants by sprinkling a narrow band a few centimeters away from stems and watering in thoroughly. For larger areas, follow typical guidelines of about 2–3 lbs per 100 sq ft unless the product label specifies otherwise. [2] [3] [4] What plants is blood meal good for? Blood meal is ideal for heavy feeders such as corn, tomatoes, peppers, squash, onions, broccoli, cabbage, and leafy greens that require abundant nitrogen for strong vegetative growth. It also benefits lawns and many flowering ornamentals when applied at conservative rates. [7] [6] [3] [5] Can you sprinkle blood meal on top of soil? Yes, you can sprinkle it on top as a side-dress, but it should be lightly worked into the surface or watered in immediately for best effect and to reduce odor and animal attraction. Avoid leaving thick, dry layers on the surface, which can crust or concentrate salts near seedlings. [3] [2] Which plants don’t like blood and bone? Avoid using blood and bone heavily on succulents, cacti, many rock-garden and alpine plants, and some acid-loving shrubs that prefer lean soils, as well as nitrogen-fixing legumes like peas and beans that already obtain nitrogen biologically. In these cases, use compost or milder, more balanced organic fertilizers instead of strong high-nitrogen amendments. [11] [9] [10] [8] [7] [3] How to apply blood meal to correct depleted nitrogen? For beds with depleted nitrogen, spread blood meal evenly at recommended rates over the affected area, lightly incorporate into the topsoil, and irrigate to activate microbial breakdown and nitrogen release. Monitor plant response and avoid repeated heavy applications in a short period, as excess nitrogen can burn roots, cause overly lush, weak growth, and increase susceptibility to pests. Blood Meal vs. Bone Meal Fertilizer: What’s the Difference? Blood meal is a fast-acting organic fertilizer rich in nitrogen that promotes leafy growth, while bone meal is high in phosphorus and calcium, supporting strong roots, flowering, and fruit development.
