Belowground interactions between plant roots, arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMFs), and growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) can improve growth yield under abiotic stress conditions. A pot factorial experiment based on completely randomized design with three replications was conducted to investigate the effects of AMFs (without inoculation as control, Funneliformis mosseae intraradices) PGPRs c...

Cell culture seed trains-the generation of a sufficient viable cell number for the inoculation of the production scale bioreactor, starting from incubator scale-are time- and cost-intensive. Accordingly, a seed train offers potential for optimization regarding its layout and the corresponding proceedings. A tool has been developed to determine the optimal points in time for cell passaging from ...

Background The purpose of a seed train is the generation of an adequate number of cells for the inoculation of a production bioreactor. This is timeand cost-intensive. From volumes used for cell thawing or cell line maintenance the cell number has to be increased. The cells are usually run through many cultivation systems which become larger with each passage. The seed train steps have a signif...

effect of free and symbiotic nitrogen fixing bacteria on seed and seedling produced seeds under deficit irrigation was conducted in laboratory and field experiments in 2006. in laboratory of karaj’s seed and plant research and certificate institute an experiment was conducted based on factorial in form of completely randomized design with four replications and in field’s of islamic azad univers...

In order to evaluate the Effects of dual inoculation of Azotobacter and Mycorrhiza with Nitrogen and Phosphorus levels on yield and yield components of spring safflower, this study was carried out in field of Farahan university in Markazi province in 2007. A factorial in a randomized complete block design with three replications was used inoculation of Azotobacter (with inoculation and without ...

plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgpr) has been identified as an alternative to chemical fertilizer to increase soil fertility and crop production in sustainable agriculture. the objective of this study was to investigate the effects of single and co-inoculation of azospirillum and pseudomonas strains on plant growth and nutrient uptake of maize as a factorial experiment. treatments includ...

introduction fertilizers are the key components which provide plant nutrients' needs in recent years (omid jangir & sing, 1996; kapoor et al., 2007). in many cases, using chemical fertilizers has different negative environmental effects such as soil, water and air pollution, which increase environmental hazardous and production costs (jangir & sing, 1996; kapoor et al., 2007). biological activi...

introduction considering the nutrient loss, environmental pollution and increase in production costs on account of chemical fertilizer application, supplying mineral nutrients based on organic sources and mycorrhizal inoculation can improve organic matter content in soil (khandan & astaraei, 2005; halajnia et al., 2007), promote sustainable production of oil crops (mostafavian et al., 2008; kaw...
