Effect of Bioinoculation of Rhodobacter Capsulatus Ku002 on Two Rice Varieties of India
نویسنده
چکیده
In our continuing studies on the potential application of phototrophic bacteria we have tried to investigate the effects of inoculation of phototrophic bacteria on the growth and nitrogen levels in two varieties of rice namely Mashuri and Erramallelu. Mashuri variety was comparatively more responsive to the inoculation of phototrophic bacteria. Increase in shoot length of both the varieties of rice could be recorded. Nitrogen percentage showed a marked increase in both the rice varieties tested. Potential of phototrophic bacteria as a biofertiliser is discussed in this communication.

Dietary Effect of Selenium-enriched Radish Sprouts, Vitamin E, and Rhodobacter capsulatus on Hypocholesterolemia and Immunity of Broiler
The study was designed to investigate the effects of dietary Selenium-enriched radish sprouts (Se-RS), Vitamin E (Vit E), and Rhodobacter capsulatus (RC) on immunity, cholesterol concentration, and fatty acid composition in broiler meat. A total of 100 two-week-old male broiler chicks were randomly assigned into five dietary groups: I) Control; II) Se-RS (5 μg/kg Se-RS); III) Se-RS+RC (5 μg/kg ...
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequences of Two Heat-Resistant Mutant Strains (A52 and B41) of the Photosynthetic Hydrogen-Producing Bacterium Rhodobacter capsulatus
The draft genome sequences of two heat-resistant mutant strains, A52 and B41, derived from Rhodobacter capsulatus DSM 1710, and with different hydrogen production levels, are reported here. These sequences may help understand the molecular basis of heat resistance and hydrogen production in R. capsulatus.
متن کاملBacteriocin from Purple Nonsulfur Phototrophic Bacteria, Rhodobacter capsulatus
To find whether productivity of bacteriocin is controlled between different species under unusual cultural conditions, we used Rhodobacter capsulatus ATCC 17016 as a producer and Rhodopseudomonas palustris ATCC 17003 as an indicator. Rhodobacter capsulatus was cultured under aerobic conditions in the dark in Lascelles medium containing 0.3% Triton X-100. As a result, bacteriocin productivity in...
متن کاملEffect of oxygen on translation and posttranslational steps in expression of photosynthesis genes in Rhodobacter capsulatus.
The formation of the photosynthetic apparatus in Rhodobacter capsulatus is regulated by oxygen tension. Previous studies have shown a regulatory effect of oxygen on the transcription of photosynthesis genes and on the stability of certain mRNA segments. Here we show that oxygen affects puf and puc gene expression posttranslationally and that this regulation depends on the presence of bacterioch...
متن کاملThioredoxin 2 is involved in oxidative stress defence and redox-dependent expression of photosynthesis genes in Rhodobacter capsulatus.
Thioredoxins are small ubiquitous proteins that display different functions mainly via redox-mediated processes. The facultatively photosynthetic bacterium Rhodobacter capsulatus harbours at least two genes for thioredoxin 1 and 2, trxA and trxC. It is demonstrated that thioredoxin 2 of R. capsulatus can partially replace the thioredoxin 1 function as a hydrogen donor for methionine sulfoxide r...
