Two outstanding characteristics of azotobacter, their abilitv to fix nitrogen and unusually high rates of oxidation, have stimulated interest in obtaining cell free extracts suitable for biochemical analysis of these processes. Many difficulties have been encountered in obtaining such extracts. Attempts to obtain cell free extracts capable of nitrogen fixation have given extremely inconsistent ...

In order to investigate the effect of Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) and rhizobium bacteria on grain yield and some agronomic traits of mungbean (Vigna radiate L.), an experiment was carried out based on randomized complete block design with three replications in Malekshahi, Ilam province, Iran during 2012-2013 cropping season. Experimental treatments consisted of control treatment...

local anesthetic solutions are frequently mixed to take advantage of the useful properties of each drug but the medical literature is surprisingly deficient in well controlled studies about the onset and duration of action of these mixtures for epidural anesthesia. a total of 32 patients scheduled for elective operation were enrolled in this prospective randomized controlled study; in group i, ...

A gene from Azotobacter vinelandii whose product exhibits primary sequence similarity to the NifY, NafY, NifX, and VnfX family of proteins, and which is required for effective V-dependent diazotrophic growth, was identified. Because this gene is located downstream from vnfK in an arrangement similar to the relative organization of the nifK and nifY genes, it was designated vnfY. A mutant strain...

The 19.9 kDa C-terminal module (R3) from Azotobacter vinelandii mannronan C5-epimerase AlgE6 has been (13)C, (15)N isotopically labelled and recombinantly expressed. We report here the (1)H, (13)C, (15)N resonance assignment of AlgE6R3.

In this study, the focus on response of soil microbes to electric field (EF) different exposure periods was detected. Exposure of different soil samples to electric field EF strength 6kV/m for 1,2 and 3 months slighty decreased the total viable counts of numbers of general bacteria, as well as Azotobacter and Azospirellum, however, the total viable counts of fungi reflected noticeable decrease ...

in order to evaluate the response of quantitative and qualitative characteristics of the isabgol (plantago ovata frosk.) medicinal plant to separate and combined application of urea and biofertilizer an experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design at the research farm of shahrekord university in 2011. the experimental treatments consisted of control (no urea and biological fer...

Azotobacter vinelandii stimulated the growth of Agrobacterium tumefaciens H2, H23, H24, H27, and ATCC 15955 on media containing insoluble iron sources. The Azotobacter vinelandii siderophores appeared to promote Agrobacterium tumefaciens growth by solubilizing mineral iron, and the ferrisiderophores so formed then acted as iron sources for Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Agrobactin, the Agrobacteriu...
