Studies of Impact on Bioactive Molecules of SB2 Isolate and their PGPR Activities from the Marine Environment

Abstract

Marine microbes are important sources for recovering bioactive substances. One of the marine isolates, SB2, used a variety of media, with tryptic soy broth showing the best growth and yellow coloring. The largest amount of biomass was produced after 72 hours when the strain SB2 was cultured on glucose, molasses, and peptone, a yeast extract containing carbon and nitrogen sources. Yellow pigment must be extracted using methanol, and the isolate SB2 produced the most of this color. At a concentration of 100 g ml-1 of several bacterial pathogens, the recovered pigment from the SB2 isolate exhibited antibacterial action. The maximum production of IAA and GA is shown in TS broth, which is additionally augmented by the siderophore synthesis of catechol and salicylate. The SB2 also produces IAA and GA. In contrast, the highest level of ACC deaminase activity was found in nutrient broth. Due to the generation of pigment, the strain SB2 may be essential for Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) and antibacterial properties.
