Experimentelle Untersuchungen zu endophytischen Bakterien in Kapuzinerkresse aus heimischem Anbau

Abstract
Plants are “Trojan Horses” for Microbes / Experimental studies on endophytic bacteria in nasturtium grown in Germany
Sixty-six preparations of native plants grown in Germany (nasturtium, Tropaeolum majus) were investigated for endophytic bacteria, e. g. so-called biletolerant, gram-negative bacteria (acc. to the definition of the Ph. Eur.). As a result some enterobacteriaceae (most frequently Pantoea spp. 3) and pseudomonads (most frequently Pseudomonas fluorescens) were cultivated. The endophytic bacteria are similar to the exophytic microorganisms. The technological significance is discussed.
It is evident that certain enterobacteria and gram-negative, oxidase-positive bacteria do not only belong to the autochthonous exophytic bacteria, but also to the endophytic microflora of plants.
