Four hundred bacterial isolates were isolated from rhizosphere of some plants collected from Egypt and screened for production of chitinase enzyme. Only four isolates designated MS1, MS2, MS3 and MS4 were the most potent chitinolytic bacterial species. SDS-PAGE analysis of vegetative and sporulated cells of the four isolates revealed that the protein profile of the four isolates were different ...

Phytoextraction is a remediation technology that uses plants to remove heavy metals from soil. The success of a phytoextraction process depends on adequate plant yield (aerial parts) and high metal concentrations in plant shoots. A paper towel experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of plants sunflower (Helianthus annuus), maize (Zea maize), pearl millet ( Sorghum bicolour), green g...

A field study was carried out during summer seasons of 2018 and 2019 at the Experimental Farm Faculty Environmental Agricultural Sciences, Arish University, El-Arish, North Sinai Governorate.
