Five isolates from soil and nodule of legume were selected by planting maize inoculated with phosphate-solubilizing bacteria in vermiculite to investigate the ability of solubilization inorganic phosphates , the kind of the organic acid in celll excreta and resistance of antiboitics. Next, treatments of different materials- (1)blank, (2)tricalcium phosphate, (3)tricalcium phosphate and humic substance,(4) tricalcium phosphate, humic substance and glucose- with maize were used to investigated the change of population of phosphate-solubilizing bacteria in rhizoplan and the effect on the growth of maize. The result of selecting test showed there were five strains - phosphate-solubilizing bacteria from soil Bacillus pumillus Ca20, Bacillus pumillus Ca48 and Pseudomonas cepacia PSB , Rhizobium fredii SB651 and Rhizobium legueminosarum biovar trifolii V12, which seemed to express better abilities in solubilizingtricalcium phosphate and promoting the dry weight of maize in vermiculite. While incubating with tricalcium phosphate liquid medium for 96 hours, the content of water - soluble phosphorus and population of phosphate- solubilizing bacteria increased as pH decreased for 3~4 units. The supernatant of achieved the lowest pH of 3.8. Result in testing the resistance of antibiotics showed the five isolates can resist teracycline on the concentration of 50 (g mL-1 . So tetracycline were chose to add into tricalcium phosphate plate medium as a method to affirm five isolates besides clear one . Different organic acid and amounts of excreta of five phosphate- solubilizing bacteria were found by analysis of HPLC . Citric acid found in excreta of Pseudomonas cepacia PSB may relates to the mechanism of phosphate solubilizing and decrease of pH in tricalcium phosphate. Planting maize with five different inoculations and four different treatment of materials by sand culture-(1) blank (2) tricalcium phosphate (3) tricalcim phosphate and humic substances, (4) tricalcim phosphate, humic substances and glucose. During five week, the population of phosphate - solubilizing bacteria in the rhizosphere of maize decrease as time increase. The population of phosphate-solubilizing bacteria remained at 105~107 CFU g-1 fresh root . The results indicate there were still phosphate-solubilizing bacteria existing in the rhizosphere of maize. Results in analysis of plant and soil showed treatments of materials and inoculations were not significantly related to phosphorus content of plant, available phosphorus in soil, nitrogen content of plant, dry weight of plants and dry weight of roots. But some inoculations, Rhizobium legueminosarum biovar trifolii V12 and Rhizobium fredii SB651, showed difference on phosphorus content of plant, available phosphorus in soil, nitrogen content of plant. So Planting maize in sand with inoculations of phosphate- solubilizing bacteria for five weeks showed no significant difference on the growth of maize in this experiment. But individual result in phosphorus content of plant, available phosphorus in soil, nitrogen content of plant, dry weight of plants and dry weight of roots showed the potential of phosphate-solubilizing bacteria in promoting growth of maize. Further, dry matter yields in sterile soils less than those in non-sterile soils indicated that sterile soils would depress the growth of maize.
