Effects of salinity and drought on growth, contents of proline, malondialdehyde (MDA), proteinand activity of antioxidative enzymes were studied in two Trigonella species. Seeds andexplants of T. foenum-graecum and T. aphanoneura were grown on Murashige and Skoogmedium (MS) complemented with iso-osmotic concentrations of NaCl (0, 100, 150 mM) andmannitol (0, 180, 275 mM). Growth and relative wa...

In the present study, indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) producing plant growth promoting fungus was isolated from rice field of Purba Bardhaman district, West Bengal, India. Among 6 strains, AP2 (Aspergillus fumigatus) selected as best-performing fungal strain it an efficient producer well exhibits different ability viz, phosphate solubilization, siderophore production, ammonia and hydrogen cyanide pr...
