COMBINATIONS OF LIPO-CHITOOLIGOSACCHARIDES AND METHODS FOR
USE IN ENHANCING PLANT GROWTH
BACKGROUND OF THE ION
The symbiosis between the gram—negative soil bacteria, Rhizobiaceae
and hizobiaceae, and legumes such as soybean, is well documented. The
biochemical basis for these relationships includes an exchange of molecular
signaling, wherein the plant-to-bacteria signal compounds include flavones,
isoflavones and flavanones, and the ia-to-plant signal compounds, which
include the end products of the expression of the bradyrhizobial and ial nod
genes, known as |ipo—chitooligosaccharides . The symbiosis between these
bacteria and the legumes enables the legume to fix atmospheric en for plant
, thus obviating a need for nitrogen fertilizers. Since nitrogen fertilizers can
significantly increase the cost of crops and are associated with a number of polluting
effects, the agricultural industry continues its efforts to exploit this biological
relationship and develop new agents and methods for improving plant yield without
increasing the use of nitrogen-based fertilizers.
US. Patent 6,979,664 teaches a method for enhancing seed
germination or seedling emergence of a plant crop, comprising the steps of providing
a composition that comprises an effective amount of at least one
lipo-chitooligosaccharide and an agriculturally suitable carrier and applying the
composition in the ate vicinity of a seed or ng in an effective amount for
enhancing seed germination of ng emergence in comparison to an untreated
seed or ng.
Further development on this concept is taught in ,
directed to combinations of at least one plant inducer, namely an LCD, in
combination with a fungicide, insecticide, or combination thereof, to enhance a plant
characteristic such as plant stand, growth, vigor and/or yield. The compositions and
methods are taught to be applicable to both legumes and non-legumes, and may be
used to treat a seed (just prior to planting), seedling, root or plant.
Similarly, teaches compositions for enhancing plant
growth and crop yield in both legumes and gumes, and which contain LCOs in
combination with r active agent such as a chitin or chitosan, a flavonoid
compound, or an herbicide, and which can be applied to seeds and/or plants concomitantly or
sequentially. As in the case of the '899 Publication, the '958 Publication teaches ent of
seeds just prior to planting.
More recently, Halford, "Smoke Signals," in Chem. Eng. News (April 12,
2010), at pages 37-38, reports that karrikins or lides which are contained in smoke act
as growth stimulants and spur seed germination after a forest fire, and can invigorate seeds
such as corn, tomatoes, lettuce and onions that had been stored. These molecules are the
subject of U.S. Patent 7,576,213.
There is, however, still a need for systems for improving or enhancing plant
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Disclosed herein is a method of enhancing plant growth, comprising
a) treating (e.g., applying to) plant seed or a plant that germinates from the seed, with an
effective amount of at least two lipo-chitooligosaccharides (LCO's), wherein upon harvesting
the plant exhibits at least one of increased plant yield measured in terms of bushels/acre,
increased root number, increased root , increased root mass, increased root volume and
increased leaf area, compared to untreated plants or plants harvested from ted seed.
] According to a first aspect of the t invention, there is provided a method
of enhancing plant growth, comprising treating a plant with an effective amount of at least
two lipo-chitooligosaccharides (LCO's) wherein the at least two LCO's comprise
(11613579_1):EOR
or wherein the at least two LCO's comprise
wherein upon harvesting, the plant exhibits at least one of increased plant yield measured in
terms of s/acre, increased root number, increased root , increased root mass,
increased root volume and increased leaf area, compared to untreated plants or plants
ted from untreated plants or plants harvested from untreated seed.
As is clear in context, the two LCO's are different from each other. In some
embodiments, treatment of the seed includes direct application of the at least two LCO's onto
the seed, which may then be planted or stored for a period of time prior to planting.
(11463791_2)
Treatment of the seed may also include indirect treatment such as by introducing the at least
two LCO's into the soil (known in the art as row application). In yet other ments,
the at least two LCO's may be applied to the plant that germinates from the seed, e.g., via
foliar spray. The methods may further include use of other agronomically beneficial agents,
such as micronutrients, plant signal les (such as lipo-chitooligosaccharides, chitinous
compounds (e.g., COs), flavonoids, jasmonic acid, linoleic acid and linolenic acid and their
derivatives, and karrikins), herbicides, fungicides and insecticides, phosphate-solubilizing
microorganisms, diazotrophs (Rhizobial inoculants), and/or mycorrhizal fungi.
The methods of the present invention are applicable to legumes and
non-legumes alike. In some embodiments, the nous seed is soybean seed.
(11463791_2)
In some other embodiments, the seed that is treated is non-leguminous seed such
as a field crop seed, (9.9., a cereal such as corn, or a vegetable crop seed such as
potato.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Lipo-chitooligosaccharide compounds (LCO's), also known in the art as
symbiotic Nod signals or Nod s, consist of an oligosaccharide backbone of
B-I,4-Iinked N—acetyl—D—glucosamine ("GlcNAc") residues with an N-linked fatty acyl
chain condensed at the non—reducing end. LCO's differ in the number of GlcNAc
residues in the ne, in the length and degree of saturation of the fatty acyl
chain, and in the substitutions of reducing and non-reducing sugar residues. See,
e.g., Denarie, et al., Ann. Rev. Biochem. 65:503-35 (1996), Hamel, et al., Planta
232:787-806 (2010)(e.g., Fig. 1 therein which shows structures of chitin, chitosan,
CO's and corresponding Nod factors (LCO's)); Prome, et al., Pure & Appl. Chem.
70(1):55-60 (1998). An example of an LCO is presented below as formula I
CHZORS
NH-R7
in which:
G is a hexosamine which can be substituted, for example, by an acetyl group
on the nitrogen, a sulfate group, an acetyl group and/or an ether group on an
oxygen,
R1, R2, R3, R5, R6 and R7, which may be identical or ent, represent H,
CH3 CO--, CX Hy CO-- where x is an r n 0 and 17, and y is an integer
between 1 and 35, or any other acyl group such as for example a carbamoyl,
R4 represents a mono-, di- or triunsaturated aliphatic chain containing at
least 12 carbon atoms, and n is an integer between 1 and 4.
LCOs may be obtained (isolated and/or purified) from bacteria such as
Rhizobia, e.g., Rhizobium sp., Bradyrhizobium sp., Sinorhizobium sp. and
Azorhizobium sp. LCO structures are teristic for each such bacterial species,
and each strain may produce multiple LCO's with different structures. For example,
specific LCOs from S. me/i/oti have also been described in US. Patent 718 as
having the formula II:
in which R represents H or CH3 CO-- and n is equal to 2 or 3.
Even more specific LCOs include NodRM, NodRM—1, NodRM—3. When
acetylated (the R=CH3 CO--), they become AcNodRM-1, and AcNodRM-3,
respectively (US. Patent 5,545,718).
LCOs from Bradyrhizobium japonicum are described in US.
s 5,175,149 and 5,321,011. Broadly, they are pentasaccharide
phytohormones comprising fucose. A number of these B. cum-derived
LCOs are described: BjNod-V (C184); BjNod—V (Ac, C181), BjNod-V (C161); and
BjNod-V (Ac, C161,), with "V" indicating the presence of five N-acetylglucosamines;
"Ac" an acetylation; the number following the "C" ting the number of carbons in
the fatty acid side chain; and the number following the the number of double
bonds.
LCO's used in embodiments of the invention may be obtained (i.e.,
ed and/or purified) from bacterial strains that produce LCO's, such as strains of
Azorhizobium, Bradyrhizobium (including B. japonicum), Mesorhizobium, Rhizobium
(including R. leguminosarum), Sinorhizobium (including S. meliloti), and bacterial
strains genetically engineered to produce LCO's. Combinations of two or more
LCO's obtained from these rhizobial and bradyrhizobial microorganisms are included
within the scope of the present invention.
LCO's are the y determinants of host specificity in legume
symbiosis (Diaz, et al., Moi. Plant—Microbe ctions 13:268-276 (2000)). Thus,
within the legume family, specific genera and species of rhizobia develop a
symbiotic nitrogen-fixing relationship with a specific legume host. These
plant-host/bacteria combinations are described in Hungria, et al., Soil Biol. Biochem.
29:819-830 (1997), Examples of these bacteria/legume symbiotic partnerships

lists the effective flavonoid Nod gene inducers of the rhizobial s, and the
ic LCO structures that are produced by the different rhizobial s.
However, LCO specificity is only required to establish nodulation in s. In the
practice of the present ion, use of a given LCD is not limited to treatment of
seed of its symbiotic legume partner, in order to achieve increased plant yield
ed in terms of bushels/acre, increased root number, increased root length,
increased root mass, sed root volume and increased leaf area, compared to
plants harvested from untreated seed, or compared to plants harvested from seed
d with the signal molecule just prior to or within a week or less of planting.

this structure are described in D'Haeze, et al., supra.
By way of even further additional examples, an LCD obtained from B.
japonicum, illustrated in Fig. 1a, may be used to treat leguminous seed other than
soybean and non-leguminous seed such as corn. As another example, the LCD
obtainable from Rhizobium leguminosarum biovar viciae illustrated in Fig. 2a
(designated LCO-V (018:1), SP104) can be used to treat leguminous seed other
than pea and non-legumes too. Thus, in some embodiments, the combination of the
two LCO's illustrated in Figs. 1a and 2a are used in the methods of the present
invenfion.
Also encompassed by the present invention is use of LCO's obtained
(i.e., isolated and/or purified) from a mycorrhizal fungi, such as fungi of the group
Glomerocycota, e.g., Glomus intraradicus. The ures of representative LCOs
obtained from these fungi are described in and
(the LCOs described therein also referred to as "Myc factors"). Representative
mycorrhizal fungi-derived LCO's and non-naturally occurring derivatives f are
represented by the ing structure:
wherein n = 1 or 2; R1 represents 016, 016:0, 016:1, 016:2, 018:0, 018:1A92 or

LCO's are produced by the mycorrhizal fungi which are illustrated in Figs. 3a and 4a.
In some embodiments, these LCO's are used in the methods of the present
invenflon.
In some other embodiments, one of the two LCO's used in the
methods of the present invention is obtained from S. meliloti, and is illustrated in Fig.
. Thus, in some embodiments of the present invention, the LCO's include at least
two of the LCO's rated in Figs. 1a, 2a, 3a, 4a and 5. Broadly, the present
invention includes use of any two or more LCO‘s, including naturally occurring (e.g.,
rhizobial, bradyrhizobial and fungal), recombinant, synthetic and non-naturally
occurring derivatives thereof. In some embodiments, both of the at least two LCO's
are inant.
Further encompassed by the present invention is use of tic LCO
compounds, such as those described in , and recombinant LCO's
produced through genetic engineering. The basic, naturally occurring L00 structure
may contain modifications or substitutions found in lly occurring LCO's, such
as those bed in Spaink, 0rit. Rev. Plant Sci. 54:257-288 (2000) and D'Haeze,
supra. Precursor oligosaccharide molecules (00s, which as bed below, are
also useful as plant signal molecules in the present ion) for the construction of
LCOs may also be synthesized by genetically engineered organisms, e.g., as
described in Samain, et al., Carbohydrate Res. 302:35-42 (1997); Cottaz, et al.,
Meth. Eng. 7(4):311-7 (2005) and Samain, et al., J. hnol. 72:33-47
(1999)(e.g., Fig. 1 n which shows ures of CO's that can be made
recombinantly in E. coli harboring different combinations of genes L). Thus,
in some embodiments, combinations of at least two LCO's include combinations of
the LCO's selected from the LCO's illustrated in Figs. 1a, 2a, 3a, 4a, and 5.
LCO's may be utilized in various forms of purity and may be used
alone or in the form of a culture of LCO-producing bacteria or fungi. For example,
OPTIMIZE® (commercially available from mes BioAg Limited) ns a
culture of B. japonicum that produces an LCO (LCO-V(C18:1, MeFuc), MOR116)
that is illustrated in Fig. 1a. Methods to provide substantially pure LCO's include
simply removing the microbial cells from a mixture of LCOs and the e, or
continuing to isolate and purify the LCO les through LCO solvent phase
separation followed by HPLC tography as described, for example, in US.
Patent 5,549,718. Purification can be enhanced by ed HPLC, and the purified
LCO molecules can be freeze-dried for long—term storage. Chitooligosaccharides
(COs) as described above, may be used as starting materials for the tion of
synthetic LCOs. For the purposes of the present invention, recombinant LCO's
suitable for use in the present invention are least 60% pure, e.g., at least 60% pure,
at least 65% pure, at least 70% pure, at least 75% pure, at least 80% pure, at least
85% pure, at least 90% pure, at least 91% pure, at least 92% pure, at least 93%
pure, at least 94% pure, at least 95% pure, at least 96% pure, at least 97% pure, at
least 98% pure, at least 99% pure, up to 100% pure.
Seeds may be d with the at least two LCO's in several ways such
as spraying or dripping. Spray and drip treatment may be conducted by formulating
an effective amount of the at least two LCO's in an agriculturally acceptable carrier,
typically aqueous in nature, and spraying or dripping the composition onto seed via a
continuous treating system (which is calibrated to apply treatment at a predefined
rate in proportion to the continuous flow of seed), such as a drum-type of treater.
These methods advantageously employ relatively small volumes of carrier so as to
allow for relatively fast drying of the treated seed. In this fashion, large volumes of
seed can be efficiently treated. Batch systems, in which a predetermined batch size
of seed and signal molecule compositions are delivered into a mixer, may also be
employed. Systems and apparatus for performing these processes are
cially available from numerous suppliers, e.g., Bayer CropScience
(Gustafson).
In another embodiment, the treatment entails coating seeds with the at
least two LCO's. One such process involves coating the inside wall of a round
container with the composition, adding seeds, then rotating the container to cause
the seeds to contact the wall and the composition, a process known in the art as
"container coating". Seeds can be coated by ations of g methods.
Soaking typically entails use of an aqueous solution containing the plant growth
enhancing agent. For example, seeds can be soaked for about 1 minute to about 24
hours (e.g., for at least 1 min, 5 min, 10 min, 20 min, 40 min, 80 min, 3 hr, 6 hr,
12 hr, 24 hr). Some types of seeds (e.g., soybean seeds) tend to be sensitive to
moisture. Thus, soaking such seeds for an extended period of time may not be
desirable, in which case the g is typically carried out for about 1 minute to
about 20 minutes.
In those ments that entail storage of seed after application of
the at least two LCO's, adherence of the LCO's to the seed over any portion of time
of the e period is not critical. Without intending to be bound by any particular
theory of ion, Applicants believe that even to the extent that the treating may
not cause the plant signal molecule to remain in contact with the seed surface after
treatment and during any part of storage, the LCO's may achieve their intended
effect by a phenomenon known as seed memory or seed perception. See,
Macchiavelli, et al., J. Exp. Bot. 55(408):1635-40 (2004). Applicants also believe
that ing ent the LCO's e toward the young developing radicle and
activates symbiotic and developmental genes which results in a change in the root
architecture of the plant. Notwithstanding, to the extent desirable, the compositions
containing the LCO's may further contain a sticking or coating agent. For aesthetic
purposes, the compositions may further contain a coating polymer and/or a colorant.
In some embodiments, the at least two LCO's are applied to seed
(directly or indirectly) or to the plant via the same composition (that is, they are
formulated together). In other embodiments, they are formulated separately,
wherein both LCO compositions are applied to seed or the plant, or in some
embodiments, one of the LCO's is d to seed and the other is applied to the
plant.
_10_
The total amount of the at least two LCO's is effective to enhance
growth such that upon harvesting the plant exhibits at least one of increased plant
yield measured in terms of bushels/acre, sed root number, increased root
length, increased root mass, increased root volume and increased leaf area,
compared to untreated plants or plants harvested from untreated seed (with either
). The effective amount of the at least two LCO's used to treat the seed,
expressed in units of concentration, generally ranges from about 10'5 to about 10'14
M (molar concentration), and in some embodiments, from about 10'5 to about 10'11
M, and in some other embodiments from about 10'7 to about 10'8 M. Expressed in
units of weight, the effective amount generally ranges from about 1 to about 400
ug/hundred weight (cwt) seed, and in some embodiments from about 2 to about 70
ug/cwt, and in some other embodiments, from about 2.5 to about 3.0 ug/cwt seed.
For purposes of treatment of seed ctly, i.e., in-furrow treatment,
the effective amount of the at least two LCO's generally ranges from 1 ug/acre to
about 70 ug/acre, and in some embodiments, from about 50 ug/acre to about
60 ug/acre. For purposes of application to the plants, the effective amount of the
LCO's generally ranges from 1 ug/acre to about 30 ug/acre, and in some
embodiments, from about 11 ug/acre to about 20 ug/acre.
Seed may be treated with the at least two LCO's just prior to or at the
time of planting. Treatment at the time of planting may include direct application to
the seed as described above, or in some other ments, by introducing the
actives into the soil, known in the art as in-furrow treatment. In those ments
that entail treatment of seed followed by storage, the seed may be then packaged,
e.g., in 50-lb or 100-lb bags, or bulk bags or containers, in accordance with standard
ques. The seed may be stored for at least 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, or 12
months, and even longer, e.g., 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26,
27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36 months, or even longer, under appropriate
e conditions which are known in the art. Whereas soybean seed may have to
be planted the following season, corn seed can be stored for much longer periods of
time including upwards of 3 years.
Other Agronomically Beneficial Agents
The present invention may further include treatment of the seed or the
plants that germinate from the seed with at least one agriculturally/agronomically
_ll_
beneficial agent. As used herein and in the art, the term "agriculturally or
agronomically beneficial" refers to agents that when applied to seeds or plants
results in enhancement (which may be statistically significant) of plant characteristics
such as plant stand, growth (e.g., as defined in connection with LCO's), or vigor in
ison to non-treated seeds or plants. These agents may be formulated
together with the at least two LCO's or applied to the seed or plant via a separate
formulation. Representative examples of such agents that may be useful in the
practice of the present ion include micronutrients (e.g., vitamins and trace
minerals), plant signal molecules (other than LCO's), herbicides, fungicides and
insecticides, ate-solubilizing microorganisms, diazotrophs (Rhizobial
inoculants), and/or hizal fungi.
utrients
Representative vitamins that may be useful in the ce of the
present invention include calcium henate, folic acid, biotin, and vitamin C.
Representative examples of trace minerals that may be useful in the practice of the
present invention include boron, chlorine, manganese, iron, zinc, copper,
molybdenum, nickel, selenium and sodium.
The amount of the at least one micronutrient used to treat the seed,
expressed in units of concentration, generally ranges from 10 ppm to 100 ppm, and
in some embodiments, from about 2 ppm to about 100 ppm. Expressed in units of
weight, the effective amount generally ranges in one embodiment from about 180 ug
to about 9 dred weight (cwt) seed, and in some embodiments from about 4
ug to about 200 ug/plant when applied on foliage. In other words, for purposes of
treatment of seed the effective amount of the at least one micronutrient generally
ranges from 30 pg/acre to about 1.5 mg/acre, and in some embodiments, from
about 120 mg/acre to about 6 g/acre when applied ly.
Plant signal molecules
The present invention may also include treatment of seed or plant with
a plant signal le other than an LCO. For purposes of the present invention,
the term "plant signal molecule", which may be used interchangeably with "plant
growth-enhancing agent" broadly refers to any agent, both naturally occurring in
plants or microbes, and tic (and which may be non-naturally occurring) that
directly or indirectly activates a plant biochemical pathway, resulting in increased
_12_
plant growth, measureable at least in terms of at least one of increased yield
measured in terms of bushels/acre, increased root number, increased root length,
increased root mass, increased root volume and increased leaf area, compared to
untreated plants or plants harvested from untreated seed. Representative es
of plant signal molecules that may be useful in the practice of the present invention
include chitinous compounds, flavonoids, jasmonic acid, linoleic acid and linolenic
acid and their derivatives (supra), and karrikins.
Chitooligosaccharides
C03 are known in the art as [34 linked N-acetyl glucosamine
ures identified as chitin oligomers, also as N-acetylchitooligosaccharides. CO's
have unique and different side chain decorations which make them ent from
chitin molecules [(C8H13NO5)n, CAS No. 1398—61-4], and chitosan molecules
[(C5H11NO4)n, CAS No. 9012—76—4]. The CO's of the present invention are also
relatively water-soluble compared to chitin and an, and in some embodiments,
as described hereinbelow, are pentameric. Representative ture describing the
structure and production of ODS that may be suitable for use in the present ion

pendant fatty acid chain. Rhizobia-derived CO‘s, and non-naturally ing
synthetic tives thereof, that may be useful in the practice of the present
invention may be represented by the following formula:

Figs. 1b and 2b. They correspond to LCO's produced by Bradyrhizobium japonicum
and R. leguminosarum biovar viciae respectively, which ct tically with
soybean and pea, respectively, but lack the fatty acid chains.
The structures of yet other CO's that may be suitable for use in the
practice of the present invention are easily derivable from LCOs obtained (i.e.,
isolated and/or purified) from a mycorrhizal fungi, such as fungi of the group
ocycota, e.g., Glomus intraradices. See, e.g., and Maillet,
et al., Nature 469:58—63 (2011) (the LCOs bed therein also referred to as "Myc
factors"). Representative mycorrhizal fungi—derived CO's are represented by the
following structure:
_l4_
wherein n = 1 or 2; R1 represents hydrogen or methyl; and R2 represents hydrogen
or SO3H. Two other CO's suitable for use in the present invention, one of which is

respectively. They correspond to aforementioned two different LCO's produced by
the hizal fungi Glomus intraradices, and which are illustrated in Figs. 3a
and 4a.
The COs may be synthetic or recombinant. Methods for preparation of
synthetic CO's are described, for e, in Robina, supra. Methods for producing
recombinant CO's e.g., using E. coli as a host, are known in the art. See, e.g.,

can be made recombinantly in E. coli harboring different combinations of genes
nodBCHL). For the purposes of the t invention, the recombinant CO's are at

e.g., from Sigma-Aldrich, or prepared from insects, crustacean shells, or fungal cell
walls. Methods for the preparation of chitin and chitosan are known in the art, and

Carbohydrate Polymers 672256-59 (2007); Khan, et al., Photosynthetica 40(4):621-4
(2002). Deacetylated chitins and chitosans may be obtained that range from less
than 35% to greater than 90% deacetylation, and cover a broad spectrum of
molecular weights, e.g., low molecular weight chitosan oligomers of less than 15kD
and chitin oligomers of 0.5 to 2kD; "practical grade" chitosan with a molecular weight
of about 150kD; and high molecular weight an of up to 700kD. Chitin and
chitosan compositions formulated for seed treatment are also commercially

Boosters, Inc.) and T'V' (Agrihouse, Inc.).
Flavonoids are phenolic compounds having the l structure of
two aromatic rings connected by a three-carbon bridge. Flavonoids are produced by
plants and have many functions, e.g., as beneficial signaling molecules, and as
protection against insects, animals, fungi and bacteria. Classes of flavonoids include
chalcones, anthocyanidins, coumarins, flavones, flavanols, flavonols, flavanones,
and isoflavones. See, Jain, et al., J. Plant Biochem. & Biotechnol. 11:1-10 (2002);

plants or seeds, e.g., as described in US. Patents 5,702,752; 5,990,291;
and 6,146,668. Flavonoid compounds may also be produced by cally
engineered organisms, such as yeast, as described in Ralston, et al., Plant
Physiology 137:1375-88 (2005).

Jasmonic acid (JA, [1 R-[10,2B(Z)]]—3-OXO
(pentenyl)cyclopentaneacetic acid) and its derivatives (which include linoleic acid
and linolenic acid (which are bed above in connection with fatty acids and their
derivatives), may be used in the practice of the present invention. Jasmonic acid
and its methyl ester, methyl jasmonate (MeJA), collectively known as jasmonates,
are octadecanoid-based compounds that occur lly in . Jasmonic acid is
produced by the roots of wheat seedlings, and by fungal microorganisms such as
Botryodip/odia theobromae and Gibbrella fujikuroi, yeast (Saccharomyces
cerevisiae), and pathogenic and non-pathogenic strains of Escherichia coli. Linoleic
acid and linolenic acid are produced in the course of the thesis of jasmonic
acid. Like linoleic acid and linolenic acid, jasmonates (and their derivatives) are
reported to be rs of nod gene expression or LCD production by rhizobacteria.
See, e.g., Mabood, Fazli, Jasmonates induce the expression of nod genes in
Bradyrhizobium cum, May 17, 2001.
Useful derivatives ofjasmonic acid, linoleic acid and linolenic acid that
may be useful in the practice of the t invention include esters, ,
glycosides and salts. Representative esters are compounds in which the carboxyl
group of jasmonic acid, linoleic acid and linolenic acid has been replaced with a
--COR group, where R is an --OR1 group, in which R1 is: an alkyl group, such as a
C1-C8 unbranched or branched alkyl group, e.g., a methyl, ethyl or propyl group; an
alkenyl group, such as a C2-C8 unbranched or branched alkenyl group; an alkynyl
group, such as a C2-C8 unbranched or branched alkynyl group; an aryl group having,
for example, 6 to 10 carbon atoms; or a aryl group having, for example, 4 to 9
carbon atoms, wherein the heteroatoms in the heteroaryl group can be, for example,
N, O, P, or 8. Representative amides are compounds in which the carboxyl group of
jasmonic acid, linoleic acid and linolenic acid has been replaced with a ——COR group,
where R is an NRZR3 group, in which R2 and R3 are independently: hydrogen; an
alkyl group, such as a C1-C8 unbranched or branched alkyl group, e.g., a methyl,
ethyl or propyl group; an l group, such as a 02-08 unbranched or branched
alkenyl group; an alkynyl group, such as a C2—C8 unbranched or branched alkynyl
group; an aryl group having, for example, 6 to 10 carbon atoms; or a heteroaryl
group , for example, 4 to 9 carbon atoms, wherein the heteroatoms in the
heteroaryl group can be, for example, N, O, P, or S. Esters may be prepared by
_l7_
known methods, such as acid-catalyzed nucleophilic on, wherein the carboxylic
acid is reacted with an alcohol in the presence of a catalytic amount of a mineral
acid. Amides may also be prepared by known methods, such as by reacting the
carboxylic acid with the appropriate amine in the ce of a coupling agent such
as ohexyl carbodiimide (DCC), under neutral conditions. Suitable salts of
jasmonic acid, linoleic acid and linolenic acid include 6.9., base addition salts. The
bases that may be used as reagents to prepare lically acceptable base salts
of these compounds include those derived from cations such as alkali metal cations
(e.g., potassium and sodium) and alkaline earth metal cations (e.g., calcium and
magnesium). These salts may be readily prepared by mixing together a solution of
linoleic acid, linolenic acid, orjasmonic acid with a solution of the base. The salt may
be precipitated from solution and be collected by filtration or may be recovered by
other means such as by evaporation of the solvent.
Karrikins are vinylogous 4H—pyrones e.g., o[2,3-c]pyranones
including tives and analogues thereof. Examples of these compounds are
represented by the following structure:

In some embodiments, two ent strains of the same s may
also be combined, for e, at least two different strains of Penicillium are used.
The use of a combination of at least two different Penicillium strains has the
following advantages. When applied to soil already containing insoluble (or sparingly
soluble) phosphates, the use of the combined fungal strains will result in an increase
in the amount of phosphorus available for plant uptake compared to the use of only
one llium strain. This in turn may result in an increase in phosphate uptake
and/or an increase in yield of plants grown in the soil compared to use of individual
strains alone. The combination of strains also enables insoluble rock phosphates to
be used as an effective fertilizer for soils which have inadequate amounts of
available phosphorus. Thus, in some embodiments, one strain of P. bilaiae and one
strain of P. gaestrivorus are used. In other embodiments, the two strains are
NRRL 50169 and NRRL 50162. In further embodiments, the at least two strains are
NRRL 50169 and NRRL 50170. In yet further embodiments, the at least two strains
are NRRL 50162 and NRRL 50170.
The phosphate solubilizing microorganisms may be prepared using
any suitable method known to the person skilled in the art, such as, solid state or
liquid fermentation using a suitable carbon source. The phosphate solubilizing
microorganism is preferably ed in the form of a stable spore.
In an ment, the phosphate solubilizing microorganism is a
llium fungus. The Penicillium fungus according to the invention can be grown
using solid state or liquid fermentation and a suitable carbon source. Penicillium
es may be grown using any suitable method known to the person skilled in the
art. For example, the fungus may be cultured on a solid growth medium such as
potato dextrose agar or malt extract agar, or in flasks containing suitable liquid
media such as Czapek—Dox medium or potato dextrose broth. These culture
methods may be used in the preparation of an inoculum of Penicillium spp. for
treating (e.g., coating) seeds and/or application to an agronomically acceptable
r to be applied to soil. The term "inoculum" as used in this specification is
ed to mean any form of phosphate solubilizing microorganism, fungus cells,
_23_
mycelium or spores, bacterial cells or bacterial spores, which is capable of
propagating on or in the soil when the conditions of temperature, moisture, etc., are
favorable for fungal growth.
Solid state production of Penicillium spores may be achieved by
inoculating a solid medium such as a peat or vermiculite—based substrate, or grains
including, but not limited to, oats, wheat, barley, or rice. The sterilized medium
(achieved through autoclaving or irradiation) is inoculated with a spore sion
(1x102-1x107 cfu/ml) of the appropriate Penicillium spp. and the moisture adjusted to
to 50%, depending on the substrate. The material is incubated for 2 to 8 weeks at
room temperature. The spores may also be produced by liquid fermentation
(Cunningham et al., 1990. Can J Bot. 682270—2274). Liquid production may be
achieved by cultivating the fungus in any suitable media, such as potato dextrose
broth or e yeast extract media, under appropriate pH and temperature
conditions that may be determined in accordance with standard procedures in the
art.
The resulting material may be used directly, or the spores may be
harvested, concentrated by centrifugation, formulated, and then dried using air
drying, freeze drying, or fluid bed drying techniques (Friesen, et al., 2005, Appl.
Microbiol. hnol. -404) to produce a wettable powder. The wettable
powder is then ded in water, applied to the e of seeds, and allowed to
dry prior to planting. The le powder may be used in conjunction with other
seed treatments, such as, but not limited to, chemical seed treatments, carriers
(e.g., talc, clay, kaolin, silica gel, kaolinite) or polymers (e.g., methylcellulose,
polyvinylpyrrolidone). Alternatively, a spore suspension of the appropriate Penicillium
spp. may be applied to a suitable ompatible carrier (e.g., peat-based powder or
granule) to appropriate final re content. The al may be incubated at
room temperature, typically for about 1 day to about 8 weeks, prior to use.
Aside from the ingredients used to cultivate the phosphate solubilizing
microorganism, including, e.g., ingredients referenced above in the cultivation of
Penicillium, the phosphate lizing microorganism may be formulated using other
agronomically acceptable carriers. As used herein in connection with "carrier", the
term omically able" refers to any material which can be used to deliver
the actives to a seed, soil or plant, and preferably which carrier can be added (to the
_24_
seed, soil or plant) without having an adverse effect on plant growth, soil structure,
soil drainage or the like. Suitable carriers comprise, but are not limited to, wheat
chaff, bran, ground wheat straw, ased powders or granules, gypsum-based
granules, and clays (e.g., kaolin, bentonite, montmorillonite). When spores are
added to the soil a granular formulation will be preferable. Formulations as liquid,
peat, or wettable powder will be le for coating of seeds. When used to coat
seeds, the material can be mixed with water, applied to the seeds and allowed to
dry. Example of yet other carriers include moistened bran, dried, sieved and applied
to seeds prior coated with an adhesive, e.g., gum arabic. In embodiments that entail
formulation of the actives in a single composition, the agronomically acceptable
carrier may be aqueous.
The amount of the at least one phosphate solubilizing microorganism
varies depending on the type of seed or soil, the type of crop plants, the amounts of
the source of phosphorus and/or micronutrients present in the soil or added thereto,
etc. A le amount can be found by simple trial and error experiments for each
particular case. Normally, for Penicillium, for example, the application amount falls
into the range of 0.001-1.0 Kg fungal spores and mycelium (fresh weight) per
hectare, or 102-106 colony forming units (cfu) per seed (when coated seeds are
used), or on a granular carrier applying between 1x106 and 1x1011 colony forming
units per hectare. The fungal cells in the form of e.g., spores and the carrier can be
added to a seed row of the soil at the root level or can be used to coat seeds prior to
In embodiments, for example, that entail use of at least two strains of a
ate solubilizing microorganism, such as, two strains of Penicillium,
cial fertilizers may be added to the soil instead of (or even as well as) natural
rock ate. The source of phosphorous may contain a source of phosphorous
native to the soil. In other embodiments, the source of orous may be added
to the soil. In one embodiment the source is rock phosphate. In another ment
the source is a manufactured fertilizer. Commercially available manufactured
phosphate fertilizers are of many types. Some common ones are those containing
monoammonium phosphate (MAP), triple super phosphate (TSP), diammonium
phosphate, ordinary superphosphate and ammonium polyphosphate. All of these
fertilizers are ed by chemical sing of insoluble natural rock phosphates
_25_
in large scale fertilizer-manufacturing facilities and the t is expensive. By
means of the present ion it is possible to reduce the amount of these fertilizers
applied to the soil while still maintaining the same amount of orus uptake
from the soil.
In a further embodiment, the source or phosphorus is organic. An
organic fertilizer refers to a soil ent derived from l sources that
guarantees, at least, the minimum percentages of nitrogen, phosphate, and potash.
Examples include plant and animal by—products, rock powders, seaweed, inoculants,
and conditioners. Specific representative examples include bone meal, meat meal,
animal manure, compost, sewage sludge, or guano.
Other fertilizers, such as nitrogen s, or other soil amendments
may of course also be added to the soil at approximately the same time as the
phosphate solubilizing microorganism or at other times, so long as the other
materials are not toxic to the fungus.
Diazotrophs are bacteria and archaea that fix atmospheric nitrogen gas
into a more usable form such as ammonia. Examples of rophs include
bacteria from the genera Rhizobium spp. (e.g., R. osilyticum, R. daejeonense,

Examples
Greenhouse Experiments
Example 1: Siratro seedling growth in vitro enhanced by LCO combinations
Siratro (Macropti/ium atropurpureum) seeds were surface-sterilized
with 10% bleach solution for 10 minutes followed by 3 rinses with sterilized distilled
water. Seed were then placed in test tubes containing 15 ml sterile solidified agar
medium supplemented with the LCOs illustrated in Figs. 1a and 2a (and which are
referred to in the examples as the "soybean LCD" and the "pea LCD") (with total of
'8M concentration either alone or in combination). Two other LCOs, i.e., pea LCD
or the LCD illustrated in Fig. 5 (which is also referred to in the es as the
"alfalfa LCO") was added to soybean LCO to study the effect of their combinations.
Seeds were grown for 7 days under grow light at 20°C with 16/8 h day/night cycle
and then harvested for seedling length.
As ted by the comparison between soy LCO ed with
another LCO (inventive embodiment) and soy LCO alone (non-inventive and
comparable), the combination of soy and alfalfa LCO was more effective than soy
LCO alone or its combination with pea LCO (Fig.6). Soybean LCO combined with
alfalfa LCO produced the tallest seedling when total root and shoot length were
summed. This difference was significant.
EXAMPLE 2: LCO foliar application on cherry tomato
Based on the findings from the soybean LCD and the alfalfa LCO
combination in Siratro (example 1), further investigation was conducted on tomato.
Florida petite cherry tomato plants were grown from seeds in greenhouse plastic
containers and sprayed with soy LCO or its ation with a LCO during the
initiation of flower buds at 5 ml/plant application rate. A second spry was also
_28_
applied one week after the first application. At different maturity, leaf greenness,
flower number, fruit number and final fruit fresh weight were measured.
The results achieved by the inventive ment (soy LCO + alfalfa
LCO) showed that there was a slight increase in leaf greenness with LCD
ation as compared to non-inventive and comparable soy LCO (Figs. 7 and 8).
In terms of total flower formed over a five-day period, LCO combination was
significantly higher than non-inventive soy LCO. Similarly, when fruit numbers were
counted over a six-day period, inventive soy and alfalfa LCO combination turned out
to be significantly higher than soy LCO (Figs. 9 and 10). At the end of harvest, the
average fruit number per plant was significantly higher for non-inventive soy LCD
and inventive soy—alfalfa LCO combination as compared to control ent.
However, the average fresh—weight yield of cherry tomatoes was only significant for
soy-alfalfa LCO combination over control and soy LCO (Figs. 11 and 12).
EXAMPLE 3: LCOs and their combinations on tomato seedling root growth
Tomato seeds of var. Royal Mounty were placed in lates
containing moist (soaked with treatment solutions) germination paper. Treatment
solutions were prepared with four different LCOs, namely Pea LCO AC (acylated),
Pea LCO NAC (non-acylated), Alfalfa LCD and Soybean LCD. The total LCO
concentration used to make a water-based treatment solution was maintained at 10'9
M. Petriplates were then placed in dark at room temperature for ation. Eight
days after ation, seedlings were measured with a hand held ruler for their root
length.
Results obtained from this ment indicated that all dual LCO
types enhanced tomato seedling root length as compared to control but only certain
LCO combinations i.e. pea NAC and soybean LCO, pea AC plus soybean LCD and
pea NAC plus a LCO generated significant root enhancement as compared to
non-inventive and comparable single LCO types (Fig. 8). From the experiment, it
appeared to be that for tomato seedlings, pea NAC and soybean LCO combination
was the best of all combinations. The s also indicate that combinations of
certain LCOs was more beneficial for tomato seedlings than others and it may be
ruled out that combination of all four LCOs was better.
