in the present study, we aimed to screen indigenous rhizospheric bacillus strains, capable of producing antiphytopathogenic and plant growth promoting traits. isolate cts-b19 and cts-g24 exhibited quite noticeable antagonistic activity initially against fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceri and rhizoctonia bataticola, and, later, against a panel of phytopathogens. partial 16s rrna sequence analysis ...

site-directed mutagenesis (sdm) as a powerful technique was used to change two important and conserved amino acids in 5-enolpyruvylshikimate 3- phosphate synthase (epsps) gene of e. coli. the mutations changed glycine 96 to alanine and alanine 183 to threonine. these two amino acids are very important for intraction of the wide spectrum herbicide, glyphosate, to epsp synthase enzymes. by design...
