Direct and indirect plant growth-promoting abilities of Bacillus species on chickpea, isolated from compost and rhizosphere soils
A study was carried out to test the effect of
direct and indirect plant growth-promoting traits of bacteria,
isolated from compost and rhizosphere soils, on
chickpea. A total of 74 bacteria were isolated from herbal
vermicomposts ...
Evaluation of Plant Growth Promoting Actinomycetes on Vigna
The legume genus Vigna are grown in warm temperate and tropical regions globally but are particularly crucial to human nutrition in
large parts of tropical Africa and Asia. It can also serve as forage crops. Among the Vigna ...
Plant growth-promotion by Streptomyces spp. in sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.)
Seven strains of Streptomyces spp.: BCA-546 (KF770898), BCA-659 (KF770889), BCA-667 (KF770888),
BCA-689 (KF770899), BCA-698 (KF770900), CAI-133 (KF770895) and CAI-8 (KF770890), reported earlier
to produce biocontrol and ...
A Renaissance in Plant Growth- Promoting and Biocontrol Agents by Endophytes
Endophytes are the microorganisms which colonize the internal tissue of
host plants without causing any damage to the colonized plant. The benefi -
cial role of endophytic organisms has dramatically documented worldwide
in ...
Insecticidal activity of a novel fatty acid amide derivative from Streptomyces species against Helicoverpa armigera
Helicoverpa armigera, an important pest causes serious damage to grain legumes. The main objective of this study was to isolate and
identify the metabolite against H. armigera from a previously characterised Streptomyces ...
Formulation and Commercialization of Rhizobia: Asian Scenario
The symbiotic agreement of rhizobia with leguminous plants is making a valuable
contribution to agriculture primarily as nitrogen fi xers and secondarily as
plant growth promoters by their key role as phosphate solubilizers, ...
Management of Soil-Borne Diseases of Grain Legumes Through Broad-Spectrum Actinomycetes Having Plant Growth-Promoting and Biocontrol Traits
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) and pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan L.) are the two important grain legumes grown extensively in the semiarid tropics (SAT) of the world, where soils are poor in nutrients and receive inadequate/erratic ...
Penicillium citrinum VFI-51 as biocontrol agent to control charcoal rot of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench)
In our earlier investigation, a fungal isolate Penicillium citrinum VFI-51 and its secondary metabolite was
reported to have antagonistic potential against Botrytis cinerea, the causative agent of Botrytis gray
mold disease ...
Formulations of Plant Growth- Promoting Microbes for Field Applications
Development of a plant growth-promoting (PGP) microbe needs several
steps starting with isolation of a pure culture, screening of its PGP or
antagonistic traits by means of different effi cacy bioassays performed
in vitro, ...
Exploring plant growth-promotion actinomycetes from vermicompost and rhizosphere soil for yield enhancement in chickpea
tThe main objective of the present study was to isolate and characterize actinomycetes fortheir plant growth-promotion in chickpea. A total of 89 actinomycetes were screened fortheir antagonism against fungal pathogens of ...
