Isolation of phosphate solubilizing fungi from rhizosphere soil and its effect on seed growth parameters of different crop plants
Journal Title: Journal of Applied Biology & Biotechnology - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 6
Abstract
A total of twenty two rhizospheric fungi were isolated from different rhizosphere soil of healthy crop plants of Mysore, Karnataka, India and tested for their efficacy to solubilize phosphates in PKV medium. Among the isolates, Penicillium sp. RFUOM 14 solubilized phosphates by producing clear halo zone around the colony. Further, Penicillium sp. RFUOM 14 inducers were treated for different crop plants and observed that the treatments enhanced seed germination and seedling vigor. Among the treatments, conidial suspension treated for 6 h showed maximum of 85.75 %, 80 % and 83 % of seed germination and seedling vigor 985.25, 523 and 673.5 in pearl millet, brinjal and tomato, respectively.
Isolation and identification of Salmonella spp. from broiler and their antibiogram study in Sylhet, Bangladesh
The objectives of this study were to isolate the associated Salmonella spp. from cloacal swabs of broiler and their antibiogram studies. A total of 80 cloacal swabs comprising of 50 samples of apparently healthy broiler...
Inducible Antimicrobial Compounds (Halal) Production in Honey Bee Larvae (Apis mellifera) from Rumaida, Taif by injecting of various dead Microorganisms extracts
In the current study, the antimicrobial compounds in induced Honey bee larvae (Apis mellifera) from the Taif region were extracted from hemolymph and assigned as Halal safe product. Their minimum inhibitory concentration...
Establishment of in vitro regeneration from petiole explants and assessment of clonal fidelity by ISSR markers in Luffa acutangula L.Roxb
An improved in vitro organogenesis was achieved from petiole explants of Luffa acutangula L. Roxb, a medicinally and economically important cucurbitaceous member. Morphogenetic response of petiole explants excised from i...
An efficient protocol for in vitro propagation of Fig (Ficus carica sp) and evaluation of genetic fidelity using RAPD and ISSR markers
Fig had been proliferated in vitro using tissue culture techniques. However, factors affecting shoot proliferation have not been optimized. In the present study, sufficient protocol for in vitro propagation of fig trees...
Characterization of a pollen-specific agp1-like protein in Arabidopsis thaliana
In plants, pollen tube germination occurs widely in flowering plants. In Arabidopsis thaliana, it has been reported ARABINOGALACTAN PROTEIN 1 (AGP1) plays an important role in pollen tube germination. The expression of a...
