Effect of Plant Growth Promoting Microorganisms from Rhizosphere of Piper Nigrum L
نویسنده
چکیده
Six fungal isolates were selected from the rhizosphere of black pepper (Piper nigrum L.) plants and were tested in vitro for their plant growth promoting (PGP) abilities in the soil. The species of Aspergillus selected were tested for the siderophore production, indole acetic acid (IAA) production, catalase enzyme activity and biological control of pathogens through antagonism. The results indicated high degree of PGP ability in case of Aspergillus niger followed by A. flavus str1 with respect to all parameters. A.niger (12 U mL) and A. flavus str1 (10 U mL) showed higher siderophore production capabilities were able to produce indole acetic acid (IAA) in the range of 710μg mL A. niger with a high catalase activity of 55.69 units mL exhibited good biocontrol abilities against both Fusarium equiseticus (15.6 mm) and Mucor spp. (11.6 mm) suggesting that A. niger could be considered as a potential plant growth promoting

Different responses of rhizosphere and non-rhizosphere soil microbial communities to consecutive Piper nigrum L. monoculture
Soil microorganisms have important influences on plant growth and health. In this study, four black pepper fields consecutively monocultured for 12, 18, 28 and 38 years were selected for investigating the effect of planting age on rhizosphere and non-rhizosphere soil microbial communities and soil physicochemical properties. The results revealed that the relative abundance of the dominant bacte...

متن کاملAre drought-resistance promoting bacteria cross-compatible with different plant models?
The association between plant and plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) contributes to the successful thriving of plants in extreme environments featured by water shortage. We have recently shown that, with respect to the non-cultivated desert soil, the rhizosphere of pepper plants cultivated under desert farming hosts PGPB communities that are endowed with a large portfolio of PGP traits. Pep...
متن کاملThe effect of plant growth promoting potentials of rhizosphere bacteria isolated from several halophytic species on vegetative growth and ionic content of wheat
Salinity stress is an important challenge for wheat production in the world. Plant growth promoting rhizosphere bacteria, isolated from halophytic plants, can increase the tolerance of crop plants to salinity by direct and indirect mechanisms. In this study, plant growth-promoting traits of bacterial strains (Bacillus safensis, Bacillus pumilus and Zhihengliuella halotolerans), isolated from th...
متن کاملTrichoderma harzianum MTCC 5179 impacts the population and functional dynamics of microbial community in the rhizosphere of black pepper (Piper nigrum L.).
Employing Illumina Hiseq whole genome metagenome sequencing approach, we studied the impact of Trichoderma harzianum on altering the microbial community and its functional dynamics in the rhizhosphere soil of black pepper (Piper nigrum L.). The metagenomic datasets from the rhizosphere with (treatment) and without (control) T. harzianum inoculation were annotated using dual approach, i.e., stan...
