This research is an experimental study that aims to determine the effect of application N2-fixing bacteria Actinomycetes, Azospirillum, and Azotobacter on vegetative growth parameters corn plants nitrogen content plants. Parameters for measuring include: formation rate radicle length, plant height, number leaves, leaf fresh weight plants, roots, dry total N in as well physical chemical qualitie...

It is important to conserve and improve water use efficiency crop productivity in arid semi-arid zones. For which, the of beneficial microorganisms retainers can help tolerance plants drought conditions. Therefore, objective this work was determine effect inoculation with MPCV- plant growth promoting (Azospirillum brasilense mycorrhizal fungi) application organic amendment potassium acrylate on...

A field trial was conducted at Parry Agro Industries Ltd., Valparai, Coimbatore district in two varieties of tea viz., Assam jat and ATK clone. On Eighteen treatments with different combinations 100, 75, 62.5 50 per cent the recommended doses fertilizers along DCC biofertilizers. The a rate three six tonnes ha-1 biofertilizers VAM, Azospirillum Phosphobacteria each @ kg were given annually. soi...

Nitrogen fixation is mainly responsible for improvement of crop yield. In this regard, diazotrophs like Rhizobium, Azotobacter and Azospirillum are important as they enrich nitrogen nutrition in N-deficient soils. Of these, Azotobacter promotes plant growth as well as nitrogen fixation. Thus technology has been developed for making use of Azotobacter biofertilizer for nitrogen and non-nitrogen ...

Azospirillum brasilense Sp7 and two mutants were examined for 19 carbon metabolism enzymes. The results indicate that this nitrogen fixer uses the Entner-Doudoroff pathway for gluconate dissimilation, lacks a catabolic but has an anabolic Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas hexosephosphate pathway, has amphibolic triosephosphate enzymes, lacks a hexose monophosphate shunt, and has lactate dehydrogenase, mal...

The phenomena of flocculation and floc formation by Azospirillum brasilense Sp7 (ATCC 29145) and Azospirillum lipoferum Sp59b (ATCC 29707) were studied in aerobic liquid cultures. Carbon sources representative of various entry pathways in combination with various nitrogen sources induced flocculation in both species of azospirilla. Noticeably, the combination of fructose and nitrate was the mos...

From the rhizoplane of Oryza sativa, vars. Morelos A-88 and Apatzingan, rice plantlets, we isolated two bacterial strains: Corynebacterium flavescens and Bacillus pumilus. By scanning electron microscopy, endophytic bacteria were frequently identified at the base of secondary roots, between the epidermis and the mucilaginous layer. Endophytes were also identified in the intercellular spaces whe...

Seven Azospirillum strains induced more deformation of root hairs of wheat than did strains of Rhizobium leguminosarum, Azotobacter chroococcum, or Escherichia coli. Azospirillum sp. strain Sp245 caused the most deformation. Strain Sp245 (isolated from surface sterile roots of wheat) and strain Sp7 (isolated from the rhizosphere of a forage grass) were compared with regard to their effects on r...
