The effect of seed inoculation by phosphate solubilizing microorganisms and different levels of phosphorus chemical fertilizer on yield and yield components of barley (Karoon x Kavir cultivar) was studied in Experimental Farm of College of Agronomy and Animal Sciences, University of Tehran during 2006-2007 growing seasons. The experimental treatments were arranged in split plot factorial based ...

Two naphthalene-degrading bacteria, Pseudomonas putida G7 and Pseudomonas sp. strain NCIB 9816-4, were chemotactically attracted to naphthalene in drop assays and modified capillary assays. Growth on naphthalene or salicylate induced the chemotactic response. P. putida G7 was also chemotactic to biphenyl; other polyaromatic hydrocarbons that were tested did not appear to be chemoattractants for...

saprophitic pseudomonas species are root-colonizing bacteria that can improve plant health. efficient exploitation of these bacteria in agriculture requires knowledge of traits that enhance ecological performance in the rhizosphere. some pseudomonas fluorescens strains present biocontrol properties, protecting the roots of some plant species against plant pathogens. these bacteria induce system...

The rhizosphere is the area around the root of a plant occupied by a unique population of usefulbacteria known as plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR). In this study, the isolation andidentification of rhizobacteria from orange (Citrus sinensis) orchards using 16S rRNA gene, as well asbiological and biochemical assays is reported. Analysis of 16S rRNA gene was confirmed bybiological and ...

To evaluate the inoculation effect of potassium releasing, phosphate solubilizing and nitrogen fixing bacteria on the fruit quality of tomato, an experiment based on randomized complete block design with 9 treatments and 3 replications has been conducted. In this experiment, tomato (super chief cv.) seedlings of the in the treasury cultivation with single and combined treatments of the potassiu...
