Embodiment 1

[0157] Example 1. Origin and isolation of MON 201510

[0158] Microbial strain MON 201510 was isolated from the rhizosphere of crop plants grown in a controlled environment using soil obtained from a native grassland in Iowa, USA. By serial dilution into R2A medium (0.5g casamino acids, 0.5g dextrose, 0.5g peptone, 0.5g soluble starch, 0.5g yeast extract, 0.5g special sodium, 0.3g K 2 HPO 4 , 0.05gMgSO 4 ·7H 2 0, 15 g of agar and water in a final volume of 1000 mL) to isolate strains from the collected samples. Individual colonies formed on the medium surface from the sonicated cell slurries were picked for further analysis.

Embodiment 2

[0159] Example 2. Identification and sequencing of MON 201510

[0160] The MON 201510 isolate was identified as Pseudomonas chlorospinum by 16S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) sequencing. The 16S rDNA sequence was determined by genome-wide next-generation sequencing (NGS) and derivation of related 16S rDNA sequences. The 16S rDNA sequence of the MON 201510 isolate is provided as SEQ ID NO:1.

Embodiment 3

[0161] Example 3. Growth chamber assay for controlling sudden soybean death syndrome (SDS) on MON 201510

[0162] The isolated MON 201510 strain was grown in liquid culture and then frozen in 15% glycerol before use. Soybean seeds were broth-treated with a thawed broth suspension of the MON 201510 isolate at the time of sowing and evaluated in four studies in a growth chamber inoculation disease experiment. The same soybean variety was used for all experiments (maturation group 3.4). Experimental sites were inoculated immediately before planting using sterilized sorghum pellets that had been previously colonized with the SDS pathogen Fusarium cladoides. Control plants were left untreated and inoculated. Disease assessment was performed five weeks after inoculation using an ordinal scale (1-6), where 1 corresponds to asymptomatic plants and 5 corresponds to fully chlorotic and / or necrotic plants. A rating of 6 indicates failure to sprout.

Abstract

Microbial compositions for application to plants, plant parts and plant seeds are provided for improvement of plant disease resistance and/or other beneficial plant traits, particularly resistance ortolerance to soybean sudden death syndrome (SDS) caused by a Fusarium species and/or disease caused by a Pythium species. Methods of making and applying microbial compositions or formulations to plants, plant parts or plant seeds or to growth media are further provided to increase or improve plant disease resistance and/or other beneficial plant traits.
