Abstract Inoculation of plants with plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) is an ecological approach to improve growth and yield. The objective this study was screen native PGPBs in tomato root rhizosphere evaluate their performance germination seedlings the greenhouse western region Cameroon. Isolates were selected based on ability solubilize phosphate, produce indole-3-acetic acid, seed seedl...

The present investigation was carried out to isolate and characterize antagonistic bacteria against wilt causing fungal pathogen i.e. Fusarium oxysporum, from the rhizosphere of tomato. Fifty-six bacterial strains were isolated from the rhizosphere soil samples of healthy tomato fields, collected from different locations of Faridabad district, Haryana, India. Out of these, ten isolates were fou...

Seed inoculation with plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) is an ideal tool to supply the soil with a high density of beneficial microorganisms. However, maintaining viable microorganisms is a major problem during seed treatment and storage. In this work, an evaluation was made of the effect of bacterial immobilization in nanofibers on the stability (viability and maintenance of benefici...

Verticillium wilt, caused by Verticillium dahliae, is widespread in intensive strawberry (Fragaria ananassa) growing areas. It is effectively controlled in site preparation by soil fumigation with methyl bromide but with the ban on ozone-depleting chemicals, which applies to methyl bromide, there has been an international effort to find alternatives, which will protect the crop from planting to...

Lactic acid bacteria are some of the dominant in rumen, and they have a high ability for lactic production. The present study aimed to screen evaluate performance culturable rumen from Chinese Holstein dairy cows as potential probiotic or inoculant silage production, order isolate ruminal their probiotics. Three strains Enterococcus avium (E. avium, EA1-3); three Streptococcus lutetiensis (S. l...

This study evaluated the fermentation quality, nutritive profile, in vitro fermentation, and microbial communities colonising sorghum ensiled with an unsalable vegetable mixture (chopped beans, carrot, onion (1:1:1) ) including: (1)−100% sorghum; (2)−80% + 20% mix or (3)−60% 40% mix, on a dry matter (DM) basis, without probiotic inoculant. Samples were obtained across 0, 1, 3, 5,7, 101 days ens...

BACKGROUND Several species belonging to the ecological group of white-rot basidiomycetes are able to bring about the remediation of matrices contaminated by a large variety of anthropic organic pollutants. Among them, polychlorobiphenyls (PCBs) are characterized by a high recalcitrance due to both their low bioavailability and the inability of natural microbial communities to degrade them at si...

The burgeoning global market for soil microbial inoculants use in agriculture is being driven by pressure to increase sustainable crop production managing pests and diseases without environmental impacts. Microbial inoculants, based predominantly on bacteria fungi, are applied as alternatives conventional inorganic fertilizers (biofertilizers) or carry out specific functions including biocontro...

The effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on industrial tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cv. Isma F1) cultivated in North-Eastern Algeria was evaluated under greenhouse and field conditions in a vertisol soil intended for the cultivation of industrial tomato. In the greenhouse, a commercial AMF inoculum and native fungal isolates consisting of Funneliformis mosseae and Septoglomus c...
