Virulence profiling of F. udum isolates to understand the current status of race/pathotypes prevalent in major pigeonpea growing areas in India
Out of 111 isolates, total 67 isolates were selected for virulence profiling based on geographical location, pathogenicity, cultural and morphological characters. The F. udum isolates represented 38 districts belonging to ...
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
