In order to investigate the effect of seed inoculation with Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobactria (PGPR) on germination and some biochemical and physiological indices of Cumin (Cuminum cyminum L.) under salinity stress, an experiment was conducted. Experimental factors were included in seed priming in five levels (seed inoculation with three strains of Pf2, Pf25 and CHA0 of Pseudomonas fluorescen...

Nothing is more important for effective nodulation of legumes that the availability of sufficient numbers of an infective strain of rhizobia in the root zone of seedlings. In some cases, the soil will contain sufficient numbers of infective rhizobia but modern approaches to the use of genetically superior strains of rhizobia practically demands the use of some means of inoculation, thus raising...

in order to investigate the influence of bio- and chemical fertilizers on growth parameters and essential oil of fennel (foeniculum vulgare miller.), an experiment based on randomized complete blocks design with five treatments and three replications was carried out. arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (strain sebacina vermifera) and phosphate dissolving bacteria (genera peseudomonas) were applied as ...

application of biofertilizers is a crucial technique for reducing catastrophic effects of irregular utilization of chemical fertilizers. this experiment was carried out to evaluate the effects of rhizobium strains and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgpr) on dry matter partitioning and some growth parameters of chickpea (cicer arientinum l.), arman cultivar. this research was conducted as...

this research was carried out at the research farm, faculty of agriculture, bu-ali sina university in growing season of 2011-2012. the aim of research was to evaluate the effect of foliar application of nano-iron chelate and bacterization of mesorhizobium bacteria on root nodulation, growth, grain yield and yield components of chickpea under rainfed conditions. a randomized complete block desig...

to evaluate the effect of different application methods of different strains of pgpr on sorghum forage production, a field experiment was conducted in research farm of college of agriculture of university of tehran in karaj during 2009. the treatments were arranged factorially and the data was analyzed based on a complete block design with three replications. the treatments comprised of three p...

Brazil has 180 Mha of pastures, 86 occupied with Urochloa spp. (syn. Brachiaria), and 70% in some level degradation. Inoculation plant-growth-promoting bacteria (PGPR) may represent an economic environmental feasible strategy to improve pasture production. Two greenhouse seven field trials were performed verify the effects seed inoculation at sowing or leaf-spray established pastures elite stra...

Enteric pathogens, such as Salmonella enterica and Escherichia coli O157:H7, have been shown to contaminate fresh produce. Under appropriate conditions, these bacteria will grow on and invade the plant tissue. We have developed Arabidopsis thaliana (thale cress) as a model system with the intention of studying plant responses to human pathogens. Under sterile conditions and at 100% humidity, S....

Response to five different inoculation treatments has been determined in a three-year-old prairie area established at the Becker Sandplain Experiment Station in Fall 2004. Seed inoculation was generally ineffective, but overall legume numbers and biomass in the prairie restorations were enhanced by both soil-applied granular and cover-crop applied inoculants, with soils collected from the prair...
