Growth-promoting Characteristics of Wheat-associated Acinetobacter
Abstract: Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Soil bacteria that colonize the plant roots after inoculation of the seeds, augmenting plant growth by various mechanisms, are known as plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR). Plant growth promotion, biocontrol, and survival characteristics were studied for 37 Acinetobacter strains from wheat rhizosphere. A19 exhibited antibiotic, siderophore, hydrogen cyanide, chitinase, protease, lipase, indoleacetic acid, naphthaleneacetic acid, ethylene production, nitrogen fixation, and phosphate solubilisation, which are important …

Aquaculture and Probiotics: An Emerging Opportunity Integrating Conventional Farming to Biotechnology
Abstract: The probiotics are generally defined as beneficial organisms showing beneficial effects under certain amount. Vigorous research has demonstrated the potential of probiotics in a number of conditions, including prevention of diseases, management of proper health status among humans. In contrast, the role of probiotics in animal is not much studied in comparison to human probiotics despite their great potential of improvement of several biotechnological industries. The role of probiotics in …

In-vitro assessment of plant growth promoting traits integrated with antagonistic activity of biosurfactant producing Bacillus species of oil contaminated soil
Abstract: Researchers are in search of microbial tools having plant growth promoting activity integrated to biosurfactant production potential to develop eco-friendly technique for sustainable agricultural. Presented study was undertaken to characterize the plant growth promoting activity of biosurfactant producing Bacillus species isolated from oil contaminated soil. Bacterial strains were identified as Bacillus licheniformis P1 and Bacillus velezensis P2, on the basis of morphological, biochemical and 16SrDNA gene sequence homology. Biosurfactant producing …

Application of Some Essential Bacterial Probiotics in Aquaculture: A Review
Abstract: Aquaculture plays an essential role in maintaining food security and sustainable lives for the world’s ever-growing population. Due to the expansion, intensification, and variety of aquaculture methods, aquatic animals confront significant challenges, including disease outbreaks, decreasing output, and risks to the sustainability of the sector. Poor soil conditions in aquaculture cause higher mortality, a higher prevalence of diseases, and lower yields of aquatic organisms. Overfeeding, dead animals, and feces from …

Stimulation of Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria with ZnO Nanoparticles to Improve Growth and Development of Groundnut Plants (Arachis Hypogaea L.)
Abstract: Rhizobacteria that stimulate plant growth have been extensively utilized as biofertilizers to improve the nutrient content of the soil for various crop plants. In the present study, we have isolated plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) for rhizospheric soil of groundnut crops from Gujarat agricultural fields in the Saurashtra region. Fifty-two isolates with particular colony characteristics were obtained from rhizospheric soil. All strain was tested for their plant growth promoting (PGP) …

Bacilli: The Keystone Biocontrol Agents Eradicating Phytopathogens
Abstract: As a result of the niches provided by plants to microbes, multitude of interactions occurred some of which are detrimental to the plants, including pathogenicity which results in diseased plants caused by harmful microbial community inhabiting a plant. Studies have shown that pesticides are applied to control the disease-causing microbes, but the adverse effects of the pesticides have necessitated the need for biocontrol agents that are eco-friendly. In this article, …

Biotechnological Prospective of a Group of Beneficial Extremophiles Isolated from Different Sources
Abstract: Extremophiles thrive in terrestrial hot springs, hydrothermal vents, glacial ices, saline lakes, solar saltern and acidic and alkaline niches; moreover a group of the extremophiles may grow in household hazardous waste, solvents containing cleaning and polishing chemicals, heavy metals contaminated sites, or in several other habitats such as aphotic, anoxic, athalassohaline and thalassohaline habitats that were previously considered inhospitable for life. Beside aforementioned extreme niches, extremophiles also dwell in poultry …

Characterization of Endofungus Aspergillus nomius EF8-RSM Isolated from Aloe vera Western Ghats of Karnataka India
Abstract: The objective of the present research investigation was to reveal the versatile nature of endophytic Aspergillus nomius EF8-RSM. The fungus was purified from Aloe vera, Western Ghats of Karnataka, India and sequence was submitted at NCBI under the accession number MN871698. The fungus successfully produced Indole acetic acid at the rate of 49.21±6.1 μg/ml and phosphate solubilization was confirmed with solubilization index (1.63). The fungus showed production of siderophore, ammonia …
