Inoculants or biofertilizers aiming to partially fully replace chemical fertilizers are becoming increasingly important in agriculture, as there is a global perception of the need increase sustainability. In this review, we discuss some results inoculation variety crops with rhizobia and other plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB). Important improvements quality inoculants on release new strai...

OBJECTIVE In order to improve fermentation quality of natural grasses, their silage preparation and fermentation quality in meadow steppe (MS) and typical steppe (TS) were studied. METHODS The small-scale silages and round bale silages of mixed natural grasses in both steppes were prepared using the commercial lactic acid bacteria (LAB) inoculants Chikuso-1 (CH, Lactobacillus plantarum) and c...

background heat, chemical and organic pollution are three types of environmental pollution, caused by refinery and petrochemical industries. problems caused by hear and chemical pollutants are currently resolved to some extent but organic pollution such as poly aromatic hydrocarbons (pahs) are still considered as important problems of industry and environment. objectives a laboratory study was ...

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of inoculation of homo-fermentative lactic acid bacteria(LAB) on ensiling characteristics and nutritive value of low dry matter corn silage (LDMCS). Corn foragewas harvested at milk stage (22.8 ± 0.9% DM), chopped at theoretical length of cut (TLC) 2.5 cm, and stored in eighteen 3.8 L mini silos for each treatment. The following treatments were u...

Salinity is one of the most important abiotic stresses that limit crop growth and productivity. This study focuses on the effects of different strains of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) on the physiological responses of two wheat cultivars under normal and salt stress conditions. The wheat cultivars selected include one which is tolerant to salinity (Kavir) and one which is sensitiv...

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are a group of carbon andenergy storage compounds that are accumulated during suboptimal growth by many bacteria, and intracellularly deposited in the form of inclusion bodies. Accumulation of PHAs is thought to be used by bacteria to increase survival and stress tolerance in changing environments, and in competitive settings where carbon and energy sources may be l...

Soil microbes have great potential for agriculture. A wide variety of microbes have been utilized to enhance crop production. In the current issue, enhanced growth of rice plants is reported with the inoculation of a nitrogen (N)-fixing bacterium, Azospirillum sp. B510 (2), which possesses a disease-suppressive property against the rice blast fungus (Magnaporthe oryzae) and the bacterial leaf b...
