Abstrakt: Endophytic diazotrophic plant growth-promoting bacteria Herbaspirillum rubrisubalbicans (HCC103), Herbaspirillum seropedicae (HRC54), Paraburkholderia tropica (Ppe8 T ), Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus (Pal5 T ), and Nitrospirillum amazonense (CBAmC) have been used as inoculants for sugarcane. The genome sequences of these strains were used to design a set of specific primers for the real-time PCR (qPCR) assay. Primer specificity was confirmed by conventional PCR using the genomic DNAs of 25 related bacterial species and the five target strains. The qPCR assays were conducted using root and shoot samples from two sugarcane varieties (RB867515 and RB92579). These samples were collected both with and without inoculation, using the target strains specified in this study. The sugarcane plants were grown in a greenhouse, utilizing a substrate composed of sterile sand and vermiculite in a 2:1 ratio, for a duration of 55 days. The primers designed for this study successfully amplified target DNA fragments from each of the bacterial species, enabling their differentiation at the species level. The total bacterial population present in the sugarcane quantified using qPCR was on average 10 5.2 cells g -1 of fresh tissue. Across both evaluated varieties, it was observed that the population of inoculated bacteria tended to decrease over time and became more concentrated in the sugarcane roots compared to the aerial parts. The qPCR results suggest that both the host and the microbes influence the endophytic population and the bacterial number decreases with plant age.
