GARCIA-BERNAL, Milagro et al. Antifungal effect of Streptomyces sp. RL8 strain and its promoting action on the germination and initial growth of Tépari beans (Phaseolus acutifolius Gray). Terra Latinoam [online]. 2022, vol.40, e1067.  Epub 05-Maio-2023. ISSN 2395-8030.  https://doi.org/10.28940/terra.v40i0.1067.

The Streptomyces sp. RL8 strain was characterized based on its antagonistic activity against phytopathogenic fungi, solubilization of phosphates, production of siderophores, and its effect on the germination and initial in vitro growth of Tépari beans (Phaseolus acutifolius Gray), under controlled conditions. A completely randomized experimental design was applied with a bacterial treatment based on RL8 (T) and distilled water as Control treatment (C), with four replicates per treatment and 10 seeds per replicate. The response variables studied were the percentage and germination rate (GP and GR), stem and root length (ST and RL), fresh and dry biomass of aerial part (FBAP and DBAP) and fresh and dry biomass of root (FRB and DRB). RL8 showed antagonistic activity against four phytopathogens of the five evaluated, promoted the production of siderophores and the solubilization of phosphates. On an experimental scale, significant differences were observed with respect to the control group in GP (65.83 vs 30%), GR (4.16 vs 2.25), SL (3.81 vs 1.65 cm) and RL (5.61 vs 2.13 cm), FBAP (2736.75 vs 18.46. 75 mg), DBAP (608.75 vs 361.5 mg), FRB (347.0 vs 115.75 mg) and DRB (101.25 vs 58.25 mg). These results confirm a positive effect of RL8 on the germination and initial growth of Phaseolus acutifolius Gray, revealing its potential to be used in its organic or traditional cultivation. Its application on a pilot scale and its evaluation as an alternative for agroecological production in greenhouse and in the field is suggested.
