Actinomycetes were isolated from marine sediment samples collected from the east coast of Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India. Well diffusion and agar plug methods were used for the evaluation of antibiotic production by these isolates against drug resistant Methicillin- resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin resistant Enterococci (VRE). The potential isolate VITBRK2 was mass cultured for...

Bipolaris oryzae causes rice brown spot disease which reduces rice yield with substantial global impact. Streptomycetes isolated from rice fields of Guilan Province, Iran, showed antifungal activity against the tested pathogen. From five active Streptomyces spp. isolates, isolate G showed high antagonistic activity. To determine its taxonomical identity, its colonies character...

Sunn pest is one of the most important cereal pests that affect both grain yield and quality of cerealin Iran. One potential control strategy is to use entomopathogenic fungi such as Beauveriabassiana Vuillemin as mycoinsecticide to control this pest. Naturally infested Sunn pests inKermanshah province were collected and brought to laboratory. 10 isolates were selected forfurther analysis in th...

an entomopathogenic nematode was isolated by galleria baiting technique from soil samples collected near marand, east azarbaijan province, north-west of iran during 2003. based on morphological and morphometric characters, as well as molecular data it was identified as steinernema bicornutum tallosi, peters & ehlers, 1995. morphometrics comparison of the isolate with the type species showed no ...
