recently, biological fertilizers extensively recommended because of over application of chemical fertilizer and their effects on environment and production resources. in order to study the effect of inoculate phosphate solubilization microorganisms (psm) and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgpr) on nutrient use efficiency in corn [zea mays (l.) cv. sc 604] an experiment was conducted in 2...

Background: Resistance to most antimalarial drugs has encouraged the development of novel drugs. An alternative source for discovering such drugs is natural products. Some Ferulago species are used in folk medicine for their sedative, tonic and anti-parasitic effects. Besides, coumarins isolated from this genus found to have in vitro anti-leishmanicidal effect. The present study is aimed to eva...

In the present study, three chromium resistant bacterial strains (CrT-1, CrT-2, CrT-3) which could resist veryhigh concentration of K2CrO4 (up to 40 mg ml-1 on nutrient agar plates and 10 mg ml-1 in acetate-minimalmedium) were used to inoculate the sunflower seeds both as control and under chromium stress. Cr(VI)caused severe reduction in different growth parameters (seedling ...

Objective(s): Interleukin-12 (IL-12) as a cytokine has been proved to have a critical role in stimulating the immune system and has been used as immunotherapeutic agents in cancer gene therapy. Chitosan as a polymer, with high ability of binding to nucleic acids is a good candidate for gene delivery since it is biodegradable, biocompatible and non-allergenic polysaccharide. The objective of the...

environmental problems associated with the excessive use of chemical fertilizers and abiotic stresses due to soil pollution by heavy metals have encouraged use of biological fertilizers in modern agriculture. in order to protect environment and reduce the tension caused by heavy metals, it is essential to use biofertilizer in crop production. to assess the effects of biofertilizers on yield and...

In calcareous soil, the growth and production of _Triticum aestivu_m depends on availability phosphates, which in turn reduces uptake nitrogen form urea, causes volatilization partial leaching both fertilizers, contributing to greenhouse effect, warming global. An alternative ecological solution for _T. aestivum _is inoculate _Pseudomonas putida _and_ Rhizophagus irregularis_ with endophytes th...

the objective of this research work was to study the effect of rhizobium leguminosarum pre-induced with genistein (g) and methyl jasmonate (mj) on nodulation, nitrogen fixation and early growth of the common bean (phaseolus vulgaris l.). four day-old seed-lings were transferred to pots, containing sterilized sand and turface (2:1 v:v) mixture and, receiving hoagland’s nutrient solution, without...
