Utilization of actinomycetes having broad-spectrum of plant growth promoting and biocontrol traits in chickpea, sorghum and rice
Plant pathogens such as Sclerotium rolfsii (causes collar rot), Fusarium oxysporum (causes wilt) and Macrophomina phaseolina (causes charcoal rot/dry root rot) have a broad host range, affecting several agriculturally ...
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 ...
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, ...
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 ...
Plant growth-promotion traits of Streptomycessp. in pigeonpea
The aim of this study was to evaluate three strains of Streptomyces(CAI21,
CAI26
and MMA 32), demonstrated previously to have
potential for control of charcoal rot disease in sorghum and plant growth promotion (PGP) in ...
Plant growth‑promotion and biofortification of chickpea and pigeonpea through inoculation of biocontrol potential bacteria, isolated from organic soils
Seven strains of bacteria [Pseudomonas plecoglossicida SRI-156, Brevibacterium antiquum SRI-158, Bacillus altitudinis
SRI-178, Enterobacter ludwigii SRI-211, E. ludwigii SRI-229, Acinetobacter tandoii SRI-305 and Pseudomonas ...
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 ...
Role of public-private partnerships in biopesticides and biofertilizers research and development for sustaining agriculture production
PublicPrivatePartnerships
(PPPs) are important in involving private sectors for harnessing their efficient and enhanced mass
production and delivery of consumer products and services. In agriculture, the rationale for these ...
