Occurrence of Azotobacter Spp. in Some Polish Soils

چکیده
In the year 2000 the occurrence of Azotobacter spp. in 31 Polish soils was examined and results of this study were compared with those published by Ziemięcka for 28 soils analysed in 1917-18. Almost 52% of the soils tested in 2000 were colonised by Azotobacter spp. indicating that intensification of agricultural practices that took place during the past century has not significantly changed (50% soils with Azotobacter examined in 1917-18) the colonisation of Polish soils by the studied bacteria. When present, numbers of these bacteria varied widely, from several (soils No. 17 and 31) to almost 10,000 cfu g-1 of the soil No. 25.

Alleviating plant salt stress and remediating saline soils are of great economic interest. Beneficial microbes such as Arbuscular Mycorrhizal (AM) fungi, Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPRs), etc. are associated with many plants including trees. These beneficial microbes can cope up with salinity and help the plants to survive in such soils. In this study, diversity status of beneficial...

The presence of Azotobacter sp. in soils has beneficial effects on plants, but the abundance of these bacteria is related to many factors, especially soil pH and fertility. The presented study evaluated the abundance of Azotobacter sp. in various soils of southern Poland and confirmed the relationship between soil properties and the presence of these bacteria. Diagnostic tests indicate that all...
متن کاملDistribution of bacteria and fungi in the earthworm Libyodrillus violaceous (Annelida: Oligochaeta), a native earthworm from Nigeria.
Earthworms are soil invertebrates that play a key role in recycling organic matter in soils. In Nigeria, earthworms include Libyodrillus violaceous. Aerobic and anaerobic bacterial counts, as well as fungal counts of viable microorganisms in soils and gut sections, were made on twenty L. violaceous collected from different sites on the campus of the University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, Nigeria....
