Three cDNAs (ext3, ext127, and ext26), originally isolated by differential screening from a root-hair cDNA library of Vigna unguiculata, were found to encode extensin-like cell wall proteins. Transcripts homologous to these cDNAs were only detected in root hairs where mRNA levels decreased 1 day after inoculation with rhizobia. This coincided with the onset of root-hair deformation, the first m...

Double inoculation (15 h apart) of the soybean cultivar Williams with Bradyrhizobium japonicum I-110ARS reveals a rapid regulatory plant response that inhibits nodulation of distal portions of the primary root (M Pierce, WD Bauer 1984 Plant Physiol 73: 286-290). Only living, homologous rhizobia elicit the response. We conducted similar double inoculation experiments to test the hypothesis that ...

in order to investigate the effects of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgprs) inoculation on the growth, yield and quality of eesetial oils of summer savory (satureja hortensis l .) a pot experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replication were conducted in field of research institute of forests and rangelands at 2012. bacterial treatments include suspension of thr...

Half-root tests were established to examine the association between Heterodera glycines and the blue strain of Fusarium solani, the causal agent of sudden death syndrome (SDS) of soybean. Two independent root systems were established for soybean 'Coker 156' and inoculated (half root/half root) with F. solani, H. glycines, both organisms on opposite root halves, both organisms on one root half, ...

Infection of soybean root hairs by Bradyrhizobium japonicum is the first of several complex events leading to nodulation. In the current proteomic study, soybean root hairs after inoculation with B. japonicum were separated from roots. Total proteins were analyzed by two-dimensional (2-D) polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. In one experiment, 96 protein spots were analyzed by matrix-assisted la...

The biological function of the plant-microbiome system is the result of contributions from the host plant and microbiome members. The Populus root microbiome is a diverse community that has high abundance of β- and γ-Proteobacteria, both classes which include multiple plant-growth promoting representatives. To understand the contribution of individual microbiome members in a community, we studi...

Foliar hosts of Phytophthora ramorum are often susceptible to root infection but the epidemiological significance of such infections is unknown. A standardized test system was developed to quantify inoculum in runoff from root-infected Viburnum tinus ?Spring Bouquet? or Rhododendron ?Cunningham's White? cuttings. Cuttings of both species gave off a maximum amount of inoculum 1 to 3 weeks after ...

OBJECTIVE The antimicrobial effect of photoactivated disinfection (PAD) using toluidine blue and an LED lamp was tested on endodontic pathogens in planktonic suspension and after inoculation into extracted teeth. Irradiation time was limited to 30 seconds. STUDY DESIGN The effect of PAD on planktonic suspensions of Escherichia coli, Candida albicans, Enterococcus faecalis, Fusobacterium nucle...

BACKGROUND Diverse assemblages of microbes colonize plant roots and collectively function as a microbiome. Earlier work has characterized the root microbiomes of numerous plant species, but little information is available for legumes despite their key role in numerous ecosystems including agricultural systems. Legumes form a root nodule symbiosis with nitrogen-fixing Rhizobia bacteria and there...

ABSTRACT Using beneficial fungi and bacteria to plant growth may reduce the leaf nitrate content improve quality of produced food. This study aimed evaluate isolated combined effect inoculation with Azospirillum brasilense Trichoderma hazianum at two electrical conductivities on nutrition production hydroponic arugula cultivation. The experiment was designed in randomized blocks, a 4 x 2 factor...
