Anabaena oryzae ARM 570 was examined for its growth (chlorophyll and protein), heterocyst frequency, nitrogenase (acetylene reduction) activity, ammonia excretion, and glutamine synthetase and nitrate reductase in response to two levels of urea-N vis-à-vis N2-N. Growth of cyanobacterium increased with duration of incubation. Reduction in heterocyst frequency (40%) was observed at 30 ppm of urea...

The influence of organic amendments and inorganic fertilizers on cabbage head was investigated to determine their effect on storage behavior and organoleptic quality. Field cabbage was raised by combining fourteen different treatments comprising of organic amendments and inorganic fertilizers at different levels. The result showed that nutrient schedule of the crop significantly influenced the ...

Variovorax paradoxus is a microorganism of special interest due to its diverse metabolic capabilities, including the biodegradation of both biogenic compounds and anthropogenic contaminants. V. paradoxus also engages in mutually beneficial interactions with both bacteria and plants. The complete genome sequence of V. paradoxus S110 is composed of 6,754,997 bp with 6,279 predicted protein-coding...

Animal production has changed from subsistence to an industrial model, lowering production costs but giving rise to higher potential environmental impact. When the effluents are not correctly managed, serious pollution events can occur. In Brazil liquid manure is commonly stored in reception pits or covered lagoons (biodigestors), followed by land application as a biofertilizer. In some regions...
