Abstract

Due to its adsorption with aluminum and iron hydroxides, phosphorus viability is low in acidic soils; thus, the aim of this study was to isolate and identify bacteria from the rhizosphere of four legumes growing in acidic soils of the Cumbaza Sub-basin, San Martín, Peru, as well as to characterize their ability to solubilize aluminum phosphate and iron phosphate. The isolation process was conducted on TSA medium and the isolates were classified based on their origin and morphocolonial characteristics, with the bacillary shape being the most frequent, followed by cocci. To assess the solubilization of aluminum and iron phosphates, the liquid medium GELP was employed. Sixteen strains were selected, among which three stood out for their effectiveness in solubilizing AlPO<subscript>4</subscript> (Sfcv-098-02, 22.65 mg L<superscript>−1</superscript>; Sfc-093-04, 26.50 mg L<superscript>−1</superscript>; and Sfcv-041-01-2, 55.98 mg L<superscript>−1</superscript>) and one for its ability to solubilize FePO<subscript>4</subscript> (Sfcr-043-02, 32.61 mg L<superscript>−1</superscript>). These four strains were molecularly characterized, being identified as Enterobacter sp., Pseudomonas sp., and Staphylococcus sp. Additionally, a decrease in pH was observed in the reactions, with values ranging from 5.23 to 3.29, which enhanced the phosphate of solubilization. This suggests that the selected bacteria could be used to improve phosphorus availability in agricultural soils. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
