Correlation between abnormal leaf color phenomenon and endophytic bacteria of Loropetalum chinense var. rubrum by HUO Wenwen1,2, HOU Jiayi1,2, GAO Min1,2, XIA Wei1,2, LI Yanlin1,2, YU Xiaoying1,2, XU Lu1,2*

“…Among the isolated bacteria, 16S rDNA sequence alignment and phylo-genetic tree analysis revealed that the presence of 906 bacterial strains were classified into 26 genera and 40 species.(2)While the smaller leaves were colonized by the largest number of endophytic bacterial species with a relatively uniform community structure, the opposite was true for bacteria isolated from the red- and yellow-pigmented leaves.(3)Comparison of the bacterial community data for abnormally colored leaves and those with the normally red-color revealed that not only were there significant differences with respect to the dominant genera and species, but also an enrichment of numerous bacterial species in the genera Methylobacterium and Pseudomonas in the five types of abnormally colored leaves. …”
