Abstract

By tissue separation method, tie-back experiment, and hypersensitive response test in potato, strain XJFL-1 was isolated and identified as the pathogen of ginseng bacterial soft rot in Liaoning Provence, China. The morphological characteristics of XJFL-1 were conformed to the Pseudomonads genus. Microbial fatty acid identification showed the principal cellular fatty acid traits of XLFJ-1 corresponded with Pseudomonas spp. API 50CH test results allowed the differentiation of strain XJFL-1 and MS586T from other closely related Pseudomonas species. The molecular identification, including 16S rRNA analysis and multilocus sequence typing (MLST) analysis, showed that XJFL-1 was in the same branch as P. glycinae MS586T.The genome of XJFL-1 was 6,296,473 bp, with an average guanine/cytosine (G + C) content of 60.72 %. Comparative genomics analysis using ANIb and GGDC algorithms indicated that the maximum value was observed between XJFL-1 and P. glycinae MS586T.The above morphological, cell morphology, and molecular biological identification results supported to identification of XJFL-1 as P. glycinae.This is the first report of P. glycinae as the plant pathogen causing ginseng bacterial root rot in China, which complements the biological significance of the species to a certain extent, enriches the pathogens of ginseng bacterial soft rot, and provides a theoretical basis for further investigation.
