In this study, an cadmium (Cd)-immobilizing and arginine decarboxylase-producing endophytic Sphingomonas sp. strain C40 obtained from the seeds of Oryza sativa Cliangyou 513 was characterized for its Cd availability and Cd uptake in host rice using hydroponic and soil experiments. The Cd concentration decreased by 51–95% compared to the control, while the spermidine concentration increased by 19–25% with Cd compared with no Cd in the strain C40-inoculated solution. Strain C40 decreased the above-ground tissue Cd content by 27–37% and increased spermine and spermidine contents by 28–67% and the expression levels of genes involved in spermine and spermidine production by 29–217% in rice roots compared to the controls. Furthermore, correlation analyses showed the significantly negative correlation between rice root spermine and spermidine contents and above-ground tissue Cd content. In the Cd-added soil, strain C40 promoted the rice biomass by 29–36% and decreased rice root, above-ground tissue, and grain Cd contents by 18, 16, and 33% and total grain Cd uptake by 14% compared with the controls at the maturity stage. Strain C40 decreased the exchangeable Cd content by 27% and increased the Fe and Mn oxides-bound Cd content by 45% in the rice rhizosphere soils at the maturity stage compared with the controls. These results suggested that the endophytic bacterial strain C40 increased rice root polyamine production and their related gene expression and the transformation of available Cd to unavailable Cd, leading to reduced Cd accumulation and translocation from the rice roots to grains.
