Se evaluó la biodegradación de polietilenglicol peso molecular 400 - PEG con el consorcio Pseudomonas sp. y Rhizobium trifolii en reactores Batch; para determinar las condiciones óptimas operación del reactor se preparó medio sales mínimas esenciales suplementado peptonaCSMEP; estos medios estimó comportamiento temperatura entre 15-37°C, pH un rango 5-9 concentración .1-2%. Con los resultados o...

to study the effects of nano-zinc oxide and seed inoculation with brady rhizobium and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria on yield and some agronomic traits of soybean, a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted in 2013 at the research farm of the islamic azad university, ardabil branch. treatments were foliar application of nano-zinc...

Oxidized polyvinyl alcohol hydrolase (OPH) and polyvinyl alcohol dehydrogenase were found to be constitutively present in the periplasm of Sphingomonas sp. strain 113P3 (formerly Pseudomonas sp. 113P3). The OPH was purified to homogeneity with a yield of 40 % and a 5.9-fold increase in specific activity. The enzyme was a homodimer consisting of 35 kDa subunits. Its activity was inhibited by PMS...

Rhizobium etli type strain CFN42 contains six plasmids. We analyzed the distribution of genetic markers from some of these plasmids in bean-nodulating strains belonging to different species (Rhizobium etli, Rhizobium gallicum, Rhizobium giardinii, Rhizobium leguminosarum, and Sinorhizobium fredii). Our results indicate that independent of geographic origin, R. etli strains usually share not onl...

A technological system was developed for efficient nitrogen removal from real digester supernatant in a single reactor with shortened aeration to increase the economical aspects of wastewater treatment. The supernatant (600 mg TKN/L, low COD/N ratio of 2.2) was treated in batch reactors with aerobic granules (GSBRs) to test how one, two, or three non-aeration phases and acetate pulse feeding in...

Desmanthus paspalaceus (Lindm.) Burkart belongs to the D. virgatus complex, subfamily Mimosoidae. The known potential as livestock fodder of several of these legumes prompted us to undertake a phenotypic, molecular, and symbiotic characterization of the D. paspalaceus symbionts in the Santa Fe province, Argentina. The rhizobia collected--containing isolates with different abiotic-stress toleran...
