The invention discloses a prodigiosin-producing bacterium and its production method and application. The prodigiosin-producing bacterium is Serratia marcescens BWL1001, the preservation number is CGMCC No.18953, and it produces prodigiosin The method comprises: the preparation of seed liquid; the seed liquid is transferred to the fermentation medium with soybean oil as carbon source by the ratio of 1% (v / v), 28 ℃ constant temperature shaker culture 24-48 hours obtains fermentation liquid Centrifuge the fermentation broth, collect the upper oil phase, add 1 to 3 times the volume of acidic methanol with pH=3 to the oil phase, oscillate and mix, let stand for 30 minutes, centrifuge, collect the acidic methanol phase, remove the solvent to obtain bleeding A red pigment product, the prodigiosin exhibits a good inhibitory effect on the growth of Microcystis aeruginosa. The bacterial strain used in the invention has fast growth rate, short fermentation cycle, high prodigiosin output and low production cost, and plays an important role in promoting the industrial application of prodigiosin.
