          Abstract

          Abstract Fungal sclerotia house native bacterial populations of interest for biological control of plant pathogenic fungi. The objectives of this research were: i) to explore the bacterial populations associated with Claviceps gigantea sclerotia in maize from six locations in the State of Mexico, ii) to evaluate the in vitro antagonism of these bacterial populations against three species of Fusarium phytopathogens of maize, iii) to molecularly identify the more efficient antagonists and characterize the in vitro production of metabolites. Bacterial populations in the sclerotia were calculated by direct plate count; in vitro antagonism against Fusarium graminearum, F. sublgutinans, and F. verticillioides was evaluated by confrontation in Waksman agar medium. Antagonistic bacteria were identified by partial sequencing of 16S rRNA gene and evaluated in vitro for the production of indole-3 acetic acid, siderophores, lipolytic and proteolytic activity, and mineral phosphate solubilization. The bacterial density ranged from 2.023 to 2.397 Log10UFC g-1 of sclerotia. Twenty-two strains showed in vitro antagonism against at least one Fusarium species and were identified as members of the genera Bacillus, Delftia, Micromonospora, Pseudomonas, Sphingobacterium, Staphylococcus, and Stenotrophomonas. The 22 antagonists showed in vitro lipolytic, proteolytic, siderophore-producing and phosphate-solubilizing activity; only 12 (55%) produced indole-3-acetic acid. Bacillus subtilis (BA1), Pseudomonas syringae (BA2), and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (BA18) strains were antagonists against the three Fusarium species and produced all the metabolites evaluated.

          Universal chemical assay for the detection and determination of siderophores

          A universal method to detect and determine siderophores was developed by using their high affinity for iron(III). The ternary complex chrome azurol S/iron(III)/hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide, with an extinction coefficient of approximately 100,000 M-1 cm-1 at 630 nm, serves as an indicator. When a strong chelator removes the iron from the dye, its color turns from blue to orange. Because of the high sensitivity, determination of siderophores in solution and their characterization by paper electrophoresis chromatography can be performed directly on supernatants of culture fluids. The method is also applicable to agar plates. Orange halos around the colonies on blue agar are indicative of siderophore excretion. It was demonstrated with Escherichia coli strains that biosynthetic, transport, and regulatory mutations in the enterobactin system are clearly distinguishable. The method was successfully used to screen mutants in the iron uptake system of two Rhizobium meliloti strains, DM5 and 1021.

            A single domestication for maize shown by multilocus microsatellite genotyping.

            There exists extraordinary morphological and genetic diversity among the maize landraces that have been developed by pre-Columbian cultivators. To explain this high level of diversity in maize, several authors have proposed that maize landraces were the products of multiple independent domestications from their wild relative (teosinte). We present phylogenetic analyses based on 264 individual plants, each genotyped at 99 microsatellites, that challenge the multiple-origins hypothesis. Instead, our results indicate that all maize arose from a single domestication in southern Mexico about 9,000 years ago. Our analyses also indicate that the oldest surviving maize types are those of the Mexican highlands with maize spreading from this region over the Americas along two major paths. Our phylogenetic work is consistent with a model based on the archaeological record suggesting that maize diversified in the highlands of Mexico before spreading to the lowlands. We also found only modest evidence for postdomestication gene flow from teosinte into maize.
