There is a significant range of bacterial inoculants for forage ensiling, but there is still a need for formulations to improve the safety of feed. The objective of the study was to evaluate the usefulness of three lactobacilli strains in alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) The following bacterial inoculants were used: Lactocacillus plantarum K KKP 593p (LPK), L. plantarum C KKP 788p (LPC), L. buchner...

Abstract Cold seeps represent hot spots of seabed‐derived methane emissions to the water column, where physical and biological barriers regulate transport atmosphere. In our study, we used a point source in North Sea investigate water‐column dynamics within dispersing plumes. The study is based on concentration, distribution activity methane‐oxidizing bacteria (MOB), oceanographic observations....

Rhizobia classified as Bradyrhizobium spp. comprise a highly heterogeneous group of bacteria that exhibit differential symbiotic characteristics on hosts in the cowpea miscellany cross-inoculation group. To delineate the degree of specificity exhibited by four legumes in the cowpea miscellany, we tested the symbiotic characteristics of indigenous cowpea bradyrhizobia on cowpea (Vigna unguiculat...

OBJECTIVE Effects of newly isolated Lactobacillus plantarum on the fermentation and chemical composition of fresh rice straw silage was evaluated in this study. METHODS Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) from good crop silage were screened by growing them in MRS broth and a minimal medium with low carbohydrate content. Selected LAB (LAB 1821) were Gram-positive, rods, catalase negative, and were iden...

A database was developed from 97 articles and used to examine the effect of inoculant rate obligate homofermentative facultative heterofermentative lactic acid bacteria (OF-LAB) LAB (O-LAB) on silage quality using meta-analysis. This study also compared groups with or without fibrolytic enzyme legumes forages based-silage. Results regression equations showed that elevating levels OF-LAB linearl...

Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) genotype Flamingo was inoculated with Rhizobium tropici CIAT899 and Glomus intraradices by mycorrhizal inoculant or by contact with mycorrhized Stylosanthes guianensis and grown under sufficient versus deficient phosphorus supply after transfer from initial sand culture, for comparing the effects of double inoculation (by contact or by inoculant) on growth, n...

Many species belonging to family Fabaceae are able establish symbiotic relationships with nitrogen-fixing bacteria. Studies developed Dalbergia ecastaphyllum (L.) Taub., for example, have demonstrated the potential of this species. In sense, study aimed analyze phenotypic characteristics rhizobia isolated from D. and identify whether these bacterial isolates capable establishing Vigna unguicula...

Bioaugmentation is commonly employed as a remediation technology. However, numerous studies indicate that introduced microorganisms often do not survive in the environment and thus do not increase contaminant remediation. This review details several new approaches that may increase the persistence and activity of exogenous microorganisms and/or genes following introduction into the environment....

Experiments were undertaken to test whether peat-based legume seed inoculants, which are prepared with liquid cultures that have been deliberately diluted, can attain and sustain acceptable numbers of viable rhizobia. Liquid cultures of Rhizobium japonicum and Rhizobium phaseoli were diluted to give 10, 10, or 10 cells per ml, using either deionized water, quarter-strength yeast-mannitol broth,...
