Anthocyanins are a group of common phenolic compounds in plants. They mainly detected flowers and fruits, believed to play different important roles such as the attraction animals seed dispersal, also increase antioxidant response tissues directly or indirectly affected by biotic abiotic stress factors. As major secondary metabolites plants commonly consumed food, they importance both food industry human nutrition. It is known that arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi can influence plant...

It is increasingly evident that plant tolerance to stress improved by mycorrhiza. Thus, suitable plant–fungus combinations may also contribute the success of phytoremediation heavy metal (HM)-polluted soil. Metallothioneins (MTs) and polyamines (PAs) are implicated in response HM several species, but whether modulated arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) remains be clarified. The aim present study was check colonization AMF could modify growth, uptake/translocation, MT PA gene expression...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) colonize the roots of most terrestrial plant species, improving growth, nutrient uptake and biotic/abiotic stress resistance tolerance. Similarly, growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) enhance fitness production. In this study, three different AMF (Funneliformis mosseae, Septoglomus viscosum Rhizophagus irregularis) were used in combination with strains Pseudomonas sp. (19Fv1t, 5vm1K Pf4) to inoculate plantlets Fragaria x ananassa var. Eliana F1. The effects...

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi establish a mutualistic symbiosis with the roots of most plant species. While receiving photosynthates, they improve mineral nutrition and can also increase its tolerance towards some pollutants, like heavy metals. Although fungal symbionts exclusively colonize roots, responses be systemic. Therefore, in this work clone Populus alba L., previously selected for to copper zinc, was used investigate effects AM fungus Glomus intraradices on leaf protein...

Abstract Vitis vinifera L. is an economically important crop that can be influenced by soil microorganisms, including arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), establish symbiotic associations with its roots. AMF have beneficial effects on grapevine performance improving water use efficiency and replant success. Most varieties are susceptible to various diseases, integrated pest management (IPM) one of the emerging approaches perform control. In present study, we examined communities in associated...

Antimicrobial resistance related to the misuse of antibiotics is a well-known current topic. Their excessive use in several fields has led enormous selective pressure on pathogenic and commensal bacteria, driving evolution antimicrobial genes with severe impacts human health. Among all possible strategies, viable one could be development medical features that employ essential oils (EOs), complex natural mixtures extracted from different plant organs, rich organic compounds showing, among...

The rhizosphere is a hotspot of microbial activity where the release root exudates stimulates bacterial density and diversity. majority cells in soil are viable, unculturable, but active. Proteomic tools could be useful gaining information about community to better understand real interactions between roots soil. aim this work was characterize associated with Vitis vinifera cv. Pinot Noir using metaproteome approach. Our results confirmed large potential proteomics describing environmental...

Poplar is a suitable species for phytoremediation, able to tolerate high concentrations of heavy metals (HMs). Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) form symbiotic associations with the roots most land plants; they improve nutrient uptake and enhance phytoextraction HMs while alleviating stress in host plant. This review summarizes previous results from field greenhouse studies conducted by us dealing this topic. In trial on highly Zn- Cu-contaminated site, differences plant survival growth...

The reduction of chemical inputs due to fertilizer and pesticide applications is a target shared both by farmers consumers in order minimize the side effects for human environmental health. Among possible strategies, use biostimulants has become increasingly important as demonstrated fast growth their global market increased rate registration new products. In this work, we assessed five bacterial strains (Pseudomonas fluorescens Pf4, P. putida S1Pf1, protegens Pf7, migulae 8R6, Pseudomonas...

Algeria is the largest country in Africa characterized by semi-arid and arid sites, located North, hypersaline zones center South of country. Several autochthonous plants are well known as medicinal plants, having common tolerance to aridity, drought salinity.
