F.  aPolyphasic characterization of bacteria obtainedfrom upland rice cultivated in Cerrado soil.h[electronic resource]  c2018  aThis work aimed to characterize 20 isolates obtained from upland rice plants, based on phe-notypic (morphology, enzymatic activity, inorganic phosphate solubilization, carbon source use, antagonism), genotypic assays (16S rRNA sequencing) and plant growth promotion. Results showed a great morphological, metabolic and genetic variability among bacterial isolates. All isolates showed positive activity for catalase and protease enzymes and, 90%of the isolates showed positive activity for amylase, catalase and, nitrogenase. All isolates were able to metabolize sucrose and malic acid in contrast with mannitol, which was metab-olized only by one isolate. For the other carbon sources, we observed a great variability inits use by the isolates. Most isolates showed antibiosis against Rhizoctonia solani (75%) and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (55%) and, 50% of them showed antibiosis against both pathogens. Six isolates showed simultaneous ability of antibiosis, inorganic phosphate solubilization and protease activity. Based on phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene all the isolates belong to Bacillus genus. Under greenhouse conditions, two isolates (S4 and S22) improved to about 24%, 25%, 30% and 31% the Total N, leaf area, shoot dry weight and root dry weight, respectively, of rice plants, indicating that they should be tested for this ability under field conditions.  aArroz  aBactéria  aCerrado  aOryza sativa  aSolo  aAssociative bacteria  aBacterial diversity1 aOLIVEIRA, F.
