Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii SRDI943 (strain syn. V2-2) is an aerobic, motile, Gram-negative, non-spore-forming rod that was isolated from a root nodule of Trifolium michelianum Savi cv. Paradana that had been grown in soil collected from a mixed pasture in Victoria, Australia. This isolate was found to have a broad clover host range but was sub-optimal for nitrogen fixation with T. sub...

Previous studies confirmed the existence of diversified microbial flora in the rhizosphere of Himalayan Red Kidney Bean (RKB) (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). Therefore, fifteen different temperate and subtropical regions of Western Indian Himalaya (WIH) were explored for the isolation of RKB rhizosphere-associated Phosphorus (P) solubilizing bacteria. On the basis of qPCR analysis, three soils, i.e., ...

In smallholder farms of Côte d'Ivoire, particularly in the northeast of the country, Cajanus cajan (pigeonpea) has become an important crop because of its multiple beneficial facets. Pigeonpea seeds provide food to make ends meet, are sold on local markets, and aerial parts serve as forage for animals. Since it fixes atmospheric nitrogen in symbiosis with soil bacteria collectively known as rhi...

A laboratory study of the viability of selected microorganisms in a hydrocarbon fuel medium was carried out on 19 species of microorganisms, representative of the types found as natural contaminants in aircraft fuels. More species remained viable when inoculated in pure cultures than when inoculated in mixed (composite) cultures. Of the 19 species selected, 10 were still viable after 3 months a...

Lentil (Lens culinaris Medik) is also known as "massoor". A member of the Leguminaceae family for their high protein and nutrient content. Wilt incited by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lentis can result in significant yield losses upto 50% lentil farmers. Chemical management through fungicides reduces crop significantly but has some environmental drawbacks conflicts on human health instead other met...

Rhizobial inoculants have been used successfully in world agriculture for about 100 years. About 20 million ha crop and pasture legumes are inoculated in the world each year, although that figure could be increased if high-quality inoculants were available to all farmers. The characteristics of a high-quality inoculant relate to the properties of the carrier, the infective (nodulating) and effe...

Abstract The potassium solubilizing biofertilizer based on selected bacteria (KSB) can facilitate availability of in primary silicate minerals containing to be absorbed by the plants. key successful application showing positive effects inoculated plants is selection a carrier material that guarantee viability inoculants during shelf life before being applied field. purpose this study was determ...

Wet anaerobic storage of algal biomass is a promising preservation approach that can ensure continuous supply these feedstocks to biorefineries year-round. An effective solution must minimal dry matter loss and change in biochemical composition during storage. Therefore, the objective this study investigate Nannochloropsis gaditana through wet its impact on quality. Prior storage, algae sample ...

Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria Pseudomonas and Bacillus are well known biofertilizer due to their ability for solubilizing inorganic phosphate producing phytohormones in soil. However, potential decreased diseases incidence caused by Pratylenchus coffeae has been documented. The objective of this laboratory experiment was formulate solid contained diminuta subtilis. experiments consisted ...

The unfavorable rhizosphere environment for the growth of rhizobacteria and plants such as flooding herbicide is relatively common these to express acdS gene which encodes ACC deaminase. This study aims observe expression in rhizobacterial isolates from pineapple affected by environmental stressors. was observed growing bacterial isolate on a Dworkin-Foster medium containing 3 mM.L-1 observing ...
