چکیده انگلیسی
Two soil microorganisms have been shown to negatively affect the invasive species cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum) and have the potential to serve as biological control agents. The fungal pathogen Pyrenophora semeniperda kills mostly slow-germinating cheatgrass seeds and reduces the cheatgrass seedbank. It is naturally occurring within the western United States. The deleterious rhizobacterium Pseudomonas fluorescens D7 inhibits cheatgrass root elongation and seedling vigor. This paper characterized the interaction between the two microorganisms in order to determine if dual inoculations would provide more effective cheatgrass control. First, to determine the effect of P. fluorescens D7 on P. semeniperda activity, dormant cheatgrass seeds were exposed to the microorganisms in combination and alone. We found a slight increase in fungal infection with dual inoculations but a decrease in fungal-caused seed mortality. Second, to study the effect of P. semeniperda on P. fluorescens D7, non-dormant cheatgrass seeds were exposed to one or both microorganisms. We observed no increase in the inhibitory effect of P. fluorescens D7 with dual inoculations and in some cases saw less growth inhibition in the presence of both microorganisms. Overall, our findings suggest that there is no beneficial interaction between P. semeniperda and P. fluorescens D7 that provides improved cheatgrass control. Possible explanations include the production of antifungal metabolites by P. fluorescens D7, the production of antibiotics by P. semeniperda, or competition within the seed zone (i.e. spermosphere) for space or limited resources.
