Abstract: In order to separate indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) producing endophytic bacteria from Phalaenopsis amabilis roots, we investigated the optimal surface sterilization condition of Phalaenopsis amabilis roots, take the separation culture, biological and chemischial characters, and 16S rDNA analysis. The results indicated that, 6 strains isolated by NA medium were Brevibacterium, Burkholderia, Dyella and Paenibacillus. 20 strains isolated by R2A medium were Burkholderia and Dyella. A total of 23 strains were shown to produce IAA from 26 strains. In general, diverse and abundant communities of IAA-producing endophytic bacteria exist in the roots of Phalaenopsis amabilis which highlight the microbial resources represented by interactions between endophytic bacteria and Phalaenopsis amabilis further.
