Many plant-growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) associated with plant roots contain the enzyme 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) deaminase and can metabolize ACC, the immediate precursor of the plant hormone ethylene, thereby decreasing plant ethylene production and increasing plant growth. However, relatively few studies have explicitly linked ethylene emission and/or action to growth p...

Fusarium wilt is caused by the fungal pathogens, Fusarium oxysporum or Fusarium solani. It is a devastating disease that affects many important food and vegetable crops and a major source of loss to farmers worldwide. Initial strategies developed to combat this devastating plant disease include the use of cultural, physical and chemical control. None of these strategies have been able to give t...

Without physical contact with plants, certain plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) can release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to regulate nutrient acquisition and induce systemic immunity in plants. However, whether the PGPR-emitted VOCs can induce cadmium (Cd) tolerance of plants and the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. In this study, we probed the effects of Bacillus amylolique...

Verticillium wilt, caused by Verticillium dahliae, is widespread in intensive strawberry (Fragaria ananassa) growing areas. It is effectively controlled in site preparation by soil fumigation with methyl bromide but with the ban on ozone-depleting chemicals, which applies to methyl bromide, there has been an international effort to find alternatives, which will protect the crop from planting to...

Mutualistic bacteria can alter plant phenotypes and confer new abilities to plants. Some plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are known to improve both plant growth and tolerance to multiple stresses, including drought, but reports on their effects on plant survival under severe water deficits are scarce. We investigated the effect of Phyllobacterium brassicacearum STM196 strain, a PGPR ...

The precise forecast of solar radiation is exceptionally imperative for the steady operation and logical administration a photovoltaic control plant. This study proposes hybrid framework (CBP) based on complete ensemble empirical mode decomposition with adaptive noise (CEEMDAN), an enhanced Gaussian process regression newly designed physical-based combined kernel function (PGPR), backtracking s...

Abstract Background Sclerotium rolfsii is a soil-borne fungal pathogen causing diseases in more than 500 plant species. It causes southern blight disease chili. Chemical fungicides are used to control this disease, which also pollute the environment. The present study was designed assess potential of two species plant-growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) viz. Bacillus megaterium and Pseudomona...

Increasing salinization threatens the normal growth of halophytes in saline habitats, especially at seedling stage. Soil beneficial microorganisms have potential to promote salt tolerance halophytes, but less attention has been paid various responses between different with microbial inoculations. Here we performed pot experiments assess Nitraria tangutorum Bobr. and Elaeagnus angustifolia Linn....

abstract many agricultural researches have been performed to improve soil productivity. nitrogen (n) and phosphorus (p) are essential elements which are utilized by the plants in large amounts. phosphorus can be provided by applying chemical fertilizers. microorganisms convert insoluble phosphate to the soluble form and some bacteria such as rhizobacteria play an important role in this process....
