3. Cleaning the duckweed
After one week of incubation, 0.5×sh solution in each bottle was aspirated, discarded, and duckweed from the experimental, placebo, and positive control groups were treated as follows:
a. sterile Water cleaning treatment (labeled W)
Pouring a proper amount of sterile water for washing twice for 1min each time;
b. the chemical solution cleaning treatment of the present invention (labeled CM)
Transferring 10 duckweed treated by W into sterilized CM chemical solution (130 mM NaCl, 30% alcohol, 3% (g/100 ml) NaClO, pH 7.4), washing for 5min, and washing twice with sterile water;
c. the prior art method is cleaning treatment (marked as SD, B)
(1) Selecting 10 duckweed treated with W, transferring to sterilized SD chemical solution (140mM NaCl,2.5mM KCl,10mM Na) 2 HPO 4 ,2mM KH 2 PO 4 ,0.5mM MgSO 4 ,1mM CaCl 2 0.1% (v/v) Triton-X100, ph=7.5), for 20min;
(2) after the step (1), washing with 5% sodium hypochlorite for 1-2 min, and finally using Na 2 S 2 O 3 The solution was rinsed 2 times and labeled B.
4. Extracting duckweed DNA, and performing PCR amplification
The duckweed treated in the step 3 is taken out, transferred into a 2mL microcentrifuge tube pre-filled with 1g of zirconia beads, added with 2x CTAB and chloroform, homogenized in all tissues by a magnetic bead oscillator, and then extracted by a 2x CTAB nucleic acid extraction method.
The DNA of each treatment group was PCR amplified using bacterial specific primer IGS, wherein the forward primer was 16S-e1390f (5 '-TGYACACACCGCCCGTCA-3', SEQ ID No. 1) and the reverse primer 23S-e130R (5 '-GGGTTBCCCCCCACATTCRG-3', SEQ ID No. 2), wherein Y=C/T, R=A/G, B=G/T/C.
The 25. Mu.L PCR reaction system comprises: 2.5. Mu.L of 10 XPCR buffer, 0.5mM MgCl 2 0.2mM dNTPs, 0.8. Mu.M each of forward and reverse primers, 0.5. Mu.L of 5U/. Mu.L Taq polymerase, about 100ng of DNA template, and finally adding sterile ddH 2 O to 25. Mu.L.
The PCR reaction procedure included: pre-denaturation at 95 ℃ for 5min; denaturation at 95℃for 15s, annealing at 60℃for 30s, extension at 72℃for 90s,30 cycles; finally, the extension is continued for 5min at 72 ℃.
After ethidium sniffing, the PCR product was electrophoresed through a 1% agarose gel for about one hour, and then the PCR amplification result was detected by a gel imager and photographed.
After cleaning (W) with sterile water, the bacteria to be detected are considered to be colonized in an attached bacteria form, but the colonization capability is weak when the bacteria to be detected are detected to have a fingerprint after washing (CM) with a chemical solution and detecting that the bacteria to be detected have no fingerprint after PCR. If the fingerprint is still present after the cleaning (W) with sterile water and the washing (CM) with chemical solution, the bacteria to be detected are considered to be colonized in the form of endophyte, and the colonization capability is stronger.
After the solution (SD and B) adopting the prior method is cleaned, the judgment basis is as follows: after cleaning (W) with sterile water, the bacteria to be detected are considered to be colonized in the form of epiphyte, and the colonization capacity is weak, if the bacteria to be detected are detected to have a fingerprint after cleaning (W) with sterile water or have a weak fingerprint after cleaning (SD). If the bacteria to be detected have obvious fingerprint patterns after being washed by W, SD and B, the bacteria to be detected are considered to be colonized in an endophyte mode, and the colonization capability is strong.
The results are shown in fig. 1 and 2. As can be seen from fig. 1, compared with the positive control group Sp245 (endophyte), the duckweed inoculated with the strain Rt4c was subjected to sterile water washing (W), the fingerprint was detected by PCR, and after washing with the chemical solution (CM), the fingerprint was still detected by PCR, and it was confirmed that the strain Rt4c was colonized in duckweed tissue in the form of endophyte, and the colonization ability was strong;
as can be seen from fig. 2: compared with the positive control group Sp7 (epiphyte), the duckweed inoculated with the strain Lm8c has a fingerprint after being washed by sterile water (W), but has no fingerprint after being washed by a chemical solution (CM), and the strain Lm8c is determined to be colonized on duckweed tissues in the form of epiphyte and has weak colonization capacity. The method of the invention proves that the colonization ability of bacteria in duckweed can be accurately detected.
However, the prior art chemical solution SD and the SD solution combined with the B solution are used for cleaning the duckweed tissue, and although the colonization capability of bacteria in the duckweed tissue can also be verified, the steps are complicated, the time consumption is long and the sensitivity is not high enough. This is reflected in the following three aspects:
1. the SD solution needs a plurality of reagents, the preparation is complex and time-consuming, the time for washing duckweed tissues by the SD is at least ensured to be more than 20 minutes, the bacteria attached to the surfaces of the tissues can be ensured to be washed away, and then the bacteria attached to the surfaces of the tissues are washed away by the solution B; if the reagent B is used alone, the thorough sterilization of the surface of the plant tissue cannot be ensured; the chemical solution CM combines the sterilization effect of alcohol and hypochlorous acid, and can clean off the bacteria attached to the tissue surface only for 5-10 min, so that the washing time is greatly reduced;
2. when verifying whether the type of the inoculation is endophyte or not, the accuracy of detection cannot be ensured only by the SD solution, and the plant DNA is extracted for PCR detection after the tissue is washed together with the B solution, so that the steps are complicated;
3. when verifying whether the type of the inoculation is the epiphyte or not, the detection results of the PCR after washing with sterile water W and SD are consistent, so that the combination of the SD step and the PCR detection is superfluous.
