Endophytic bacteria are a promising tool in the development of sustainable agriculture. Their biological mechanisms atmospheric nitrogen fixation, phosphate solubilization, production phytohormones and inhibition plant pathogens pests promote growth avoiding need for chemical fertilizers control agents. A patent search was carried out Derwent Innovations Index database to assess panorama techno...

Nitrogen is a crucial component that acts as building blocks for nucleic acids and proteins. It abundantly present in atmosphere of the earth but plants are not able to easily utilize it. Diazotrophic microorganisms such Rhizobium convert N2 make it available pulse crops. In study, total thirty-four isolates were recovered, from twenty-two with gram-negative-rods biochemically characterized. Mo...

Both mycorrhizal and Trichoderma spp. fungi are known for antagonistic effects against certain biological pathogens causing apple replant disease (ARD). The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness bioinoculants based on endomycorrhizal properties soil as well parameters tree growths in a fruit nursery under replantation conditions. A two-year experiment conducted Jonagold trees grafte...

Abstract Background Scientific approaches into modern agricultural systems, as opposed to the use of synthetic pesticides in food production, became important by exploring endophytic fungi capable protecting plants against pathogens for maximum crop productivity. Main body Diverse microbes colonizing internal tissue exhibit beneficial and pathological effects on plants. The assisted control pat...

Increased interests in low-input agriculture in recent years has seen the growing developmentin the use of commercial biological inoculants to increase the mobilization of key nutrients suchas nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) to enhance their availability to crop plants.The objectives of this field experiment with tobacco were to determine i) reduced rates ofinorganic fertilizer c...
