Abstract:
      Soil microbes and their metabolites may influence crop growth. A pot experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of Streptomyces 702 and its metabolites(Ag-antibiotic 702) on seed germination and seedling growth of rice(Spring No.1) and soil microbial flora. Seed germination and radicle and bud growth were improved under low concentrations of Ag-antibiotic 702. With increasing Ag-antibiotic 702 concentrations, amylase activity and protein contents increased at first and then decreased. In addition, root vigor was enhanced, while sugar contents were reduced by the Ag-antibiotic 702. Additions of Streptomyces 702 agent tended to decrease soil bacteria, mold, nitrobacteria and nitrifying bacteria, but significantly increased actinomycetes and aerobic cellulose decomposing bacteria.
