Abstract. Oktiarni D, Kasmiarti G, Nofyan E, Miksusanti, Hasanudin, Hermansyah. 2021. Diversity of cellulolytic bacteria from Macrotermes gilvus gut isolated Indralaya peatland region, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 23: 486-495. The termite Hagen Tanjung Senai, Inderalaya is classified as a high-level termite. Termites like eusocial insects break down cellulosic biomass into glucose by that produce e...

Aim of study: One the safest techniques regarding remediation contaminated water is biological remediation. This study aimed to: (i) monitoring a collection organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) in three agricultural drainages (Nashart, no. 9, and El-shoka), located Kafr El-Sheikh governorate, Egypt; ii) investigate biodegradation potential different bacterial isolates pesticides.Material methods: A...

Sigma factors are bacterial transcription factors that bind the core RNA polymerase and direct transcription initiation at a specific promoter site. These specialized sigma factors bind the promoters of genes appropriate to the environmental conditions and selectively increase the transcription of those genes. Here, we attempt to identify sigma factors in 5 genomes belonging to the Enterobacter...

Introduction of quinoa (Chenopodium willd.), a gluten-free nutritious pseudo-cereal, outside its traditional growing areas exposed it to seedling damping-off. Here, we isolated eleven phosphate-solubilizing bacteria from the rhizosphere and assessed their effect on germination seedlings growth. All isolates solubilized phosphate, produced indole3-acetic acid, hydrocyanic siderophores, ammonia. ...

Bacterial resistance to antibiotics is concern in healthcare-associated infections. On the other hand, bacterial tolerance to other antimicrobials, like heavy metals, has been neglected and underestimated in hospital pathogens. Silver has long been used as an antimicrobial agent and it seems to be an important indicator of heavy metal tolerance. To explore this perspective, we searched for the ...

The search for plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPRs) addresses the ongoing need new bioinoculants to be used on various agricultural crop species, including sugarcane. Bacterial strains were isolated from rhizosphere of sugarcane plants and identified by sequencing 16S ribosomal gene. main indole acetic acid producers Enterobacter sp. IP11, IP14, E. asburiae IP24. Achromobacter spanius I...
