Abstract
An auxin-producing bacterium (AMT-54) was isolated from ginseng cultivating soil of Geumsan area. The isolate AMT-54 was confirmed to produce indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) which is one of auxin hormone by TLC analysis. When the concentration of IAA was assessed by performing HPLC quantitative analysis, the maximal 457ppm of IAA was detected from the culture filtrate after culturing in R2A broth containing 0.1% tryptophan for 24h at 35℃. The molecular weight of the main peak obtained by LC-mass analysis was correspondent well to 175, that of IAA. The strain AMT-54 was identified as a novel species belongs to Klebsiella mobilis by a chemotaxanomic and phylogenetic analysis. To investigate the growth promoting effect of crop, when the culture broth of K. mobilis AMT-54 was infected onto seed pot of mung bean, the adventitious root induction and root growth of mung bean were 3.3times higher than control.
