Physiological and genomic evidence supports the role of Serratia quinivorans PKL:12 as a biopriming agent for the biohardening of micropropagated Picrorhiza kurroa plantlets in cold regions

The medicinal herb, Picrorhiza kurroa Royle ex Benth has become endangered because of indiscriminate over-harvesting. Although micropropagation has been attempted for mass propagation of the plant, survival of in vitro plantlets under green house/open field poses a major challenge. Biopriming of micropropagated plantlets with plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are among the successful methods to combat this problem. Serratia quinivorans PKL:12 was the best-characterized PGPR from rhizospheric soil of P. kurroa as it increased the vegetative growth and survival of the micropropagated plantlets most effectively. Complete genome (5.29 Mb) predicted genes encoding proteins for cold adaptation and plant growth-promoting traits in PKL:12. Antibiotic and biosynthetic gene cluster prediction supported PKL:12 as a potential biocontrol agent. Comparative genomics revealed 226 unique genes with few genes associated with plant growth-promoting potential. Physiological and genomic evidence supports S. quinivorans PKL:12 as a potential agent for bio-hardening of micropropagated P. kurroa plantlets in cold regions.
