Abstract:

Seven bacteria strains were isolated form leaves of Sabina vulgaris Ant, and antibacterial activity of their fermentation products were evaluated according to the size of their anitbacterial circles. Totally 2 endophytic bacterium exhibited antibacterial activity, which could inhibit the growth of Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus. Colonial morphology observation and Gram staining of the 2 endophytic bacterium showed that one bacteria was coccus shaped, gram-positive, and the other was coccus shaped and gram-negative, both without capsule and spore, and without producing acid and amylase.

Key words: Sabina vulgaris Ant, endophytic bacteria, isolation, antibacterial activity
