Azospirillum brasilense belongs to the plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria with direct growth promotion through the production of the phytohormone indole-3-acetic acid (IAA). A key gene in the production of IAA, annotated as indole-3-pyruvate decarboxylase (ipdC), has been isolated from A. brasilense, and its regulation was reported previously (A. Vande Broek, P. Gysegom, O. Ona, N. Hendrickx,...

FlcA is a response regulator controlling flocculation and the morphological transformation of Azospirillum cells from vegetative to cyst-like forms. To understand the cellular responses of Azospirillum to conditions that cause morphological transformation, proteins differentially expressed under flocculation conditions in A. brasilense Sp7 and its flcA knockout mutant were investigated. Compari...

abstract soil beneficial microorganisms such as plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgpr) are able to enhance plant growth. the research was conducted using a randomized complete block design as split plot factorial with three factors (nutrient management, azospirillum and azotobacter strains) .in this experiment the effect of azospirillum and azotobacter inoculation on yield and yield compon...

Azospirillum brasilense, a plant-growth-promoting rhizobacterium, is exposed to changes in its abiotic environment, including fluctuations in temperature, salinity, osmolarity, oxygen concentration and nutrient concentration, in the rhizosphere and in the soil. Since extra-cytoplasmic function (ECF) sigma factors play an important role in stress adaptation, we analysed the role of ECF sigma fac...

The use of fungicides to control agricultural diseases has been increasing in agriculture. Thus, the biological using fungus is an effective tool integrated management. This study aimed evaluate compatibility Certeza, Apron and Vitavax on microorganisms Trichoderma asperelloides Azospirillum brasilense. experiments were conducted vitro a completely randomized design with factorial arrangement 2...

The present study assessed the effect of seed inoculation with single or multiple plant growth-promoting rhizobacterial (PGPR) strains on yield in spring wheat (Triticum aestivum spp. vulgare var. Kırık) and barley (Hordeum vulgare cv. Tokak) plants in both greenhouse and field conditions during the years 2007 and 2008. The treatments of wheat and barley plants during the first year include...
