CHARACTERIZATION OF PLANT GROWTH PROMOTING RHIZOBACTERIA ISOLATED FROM ROOT SYSTEM OF SUNFLOWER (HELIANTHUS ANNUS L) GROWN UNDER SALT AFFECTED AREA OF PAKISTAN
...ole-3-acetic acid (IAA), solubilization of inorganic phosphates, nitrogen fixation and siderophores and other organic acid production, whereas indirectly support plant growth by suppressing plant pathogens. The objective of this study was isolation and characterization of bacterial strains from rhizosphere, endosphere and rhizoplane of sunflower. Thirty six bacterial strains were selected out of 44 from plant root samples along with rhizospheric soil, collecte...

PGP Characterization of Rhizobacteria Associated with Apple Gourd (Praecitrullus fistulosus L.)
...f isolates confirmed the solubilization of zinc (Zn) and phosphorus (P) respectively. Almost, the entire isolated strains were given positive results for ammonia (NH4), nitrogen fixation, and indole acetic acid (IAA). Furthermore, for exopolysaccharide (EPS) test, 73% of isolated strains confirmed the EPS production. The conclusion revealed that almost all isolated bacterial strains exposed the growth-promoting abilities and may be used as bio-fertilizer to en...

...hipathic structures. The solubilization of water insoluble products in water solvent-surfactant mixtures plays a significant role in numerous fields of industries such as polymer industry, enhanced oil recovery, emulsion, drug distribution, textile staining and detergency. Surface active agents molecules tend to aggregate themselves into structures named as micelles. The formation of these micelles is accountable for the hydrophobic substances that are solubil...

Using the purified M protein as a diagnostic antigen, an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) has been develo...

...ed for Fe and phosphorus solubilization, indole acidic acid (IAA) equivalents, and organic acid production. The growth chamber and field study was planned to evaluate the effectiveness of these isolates on the growth and yield parameters of wheat. Total bacterial isolates were 50, out of which 15 isolates were found significantly positive for the production of siderophore and solubilizing of nutrients. The (SPS10) produced a comparatively high percentage of 46...

...solates showed differing solubilization zones (cm) in agar plates containing cellulose (1.8-9.5 cm), amylose (0.1-2.1 cm), tri-calcium phosphate (0.1-0.17 cm) and di-calcium phosphate (0.33-0.53 cm), to substantiate their biofertilizer potentialities. Confrontation assay with dual culture technique against seven phytopathogens (i.e. Rhizoctonia solani, Aspergillus niger, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, S. rolfsii, Fusarium solani, F. oxysporum and Botryodiplodia the...

...traits such as phosphate solubilization and the production of siderophores and indol-3 acetic acid were also observed. Molecular identification through 16S rRNA sequencing initially identified all the isolates as Bacillus spp. The multi-locus sequence typing (MLST) scheme, using six housekeeping genes (adk, ccpA, recF, rpoB, sucC, and spo0A) had unveiled distinct allelic profiles resulting in 13 unique sequence types (ST). Notably, a comprehensive analysis ind...

...tures, such as phosphate solubilization, formation of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), ammonia, and hydrogen cyanide (HCN) production. Among the eight isolates, two isolates only (MW3 and AB3) gave positive results for all the tested plant growth promoting traits. The promising isolates were identified by sequencing of their16S rRNA as Arthrobacter globiformis (MW3) and Micrococcus luteus (AB3). A field trial was conducted to evaluate the activity of the two PGPB a...
