abstract many agricultural researches have been performed to improve soil productivity. nitrogen (n) and phosphorus (p) are essential elements which are utilized by the plants in large amounts. phosphorus can be provided by applying chemical fertilizers. microorganisms convert insoluble phosphate to the soluble form and some bacteria such as rhizobacteria play an important role in this process....

One of the important and necessary practices for improving nutrients availability in sustainable agriculture is using microorganisms. Beside the negative effects of chemical fertilizers on the soil and human health, plant growth promoting rhizobacteria are known as an alternative to supply the organic nutrients of plants during the past two decades. Enriching soil fertility by eco-friendly meth...

Abstract The consortium of bacteria that inhabit the rhizosphere, acting as plant growth promoting rhizobacteria is known indigenous rhizobacteria. Rhizobacteria can produce chemical compounds protect plants from pathogens and various plant-disturbing organisms. Optimization yield patchouli be done by utilizing potential derived rhizosphere. This study aims to obtain capable producing secondary...

in order to investigate the effects of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgprs) inoculation on the growth, yield and quality of eesetial oils of summer savory (satureja hortensis l .) a pot experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replication were conducted in field of research institute of forests and rangelands at 2012. bacterial treatments include suspension of thr...

The use of biological control agents (BCA), alone or in combination with other management measures, has gained attention over the past decades, driven by the need to seek for sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives to confront plant pathogens. The rhizosphere of olive (Olea europaea L.) plants is a source of bacteria with potential as biocontrol tools against Verticillium wilt of olive (VWO) ...

In order to improve the culturability and biomass production of rhizobacteria, we previously introduced plant-only-based culture media. We herein attempted to widen the scope of plant materials suitable for the preparation of plant-only-based culture media. We chemically analyzed the refuse of turfgrass, cactus, and clover. They were sufficiently rich to support good in vitro growth by rhizobac...

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...

Genetic resistance in plants to root diseases is rare, and agriculture depends instead on practices such as crop rotation and soil fumigation to control these diseases. "Induced suppression" is a natural phenomenon whereby a soil due to microbiological changes converts from conducive to suppressive to a soilborne pathogen during prolonged monoculture of the susceptible host. Our studies have fo...

Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are naturally occurring soil bacteria that aggressively colonize plant roots and benefit plants by providing growth promotion. Inoculation of crop plants with certain strains of PGPR at an early stage of development improves biomass production through direct effects on root and shoots growth. Inoculation of ornamentals, forest trees, vegetables, and a...

We present here the complete genome sequence of Bradyrhizobium japonicum strain E109, one of the most used rhizobacteria for soybean inoculation in Argentina since the 1970s. The genome consists of a 9.22-Mbp single chromosome and contains several genes related to nitrogen fixation, phytohormone biosynthesis, and a rhizospheric lifestyle.
