Abstract Two plant growth‐promoting rhizobacterial (PGPR) strains, Bacillus subtilis SU47 and A rthrobacter sp. SU18, were found to tolerate 8% NaCl. Wheat co‐inoculated with these two PGPR grown under different salinity regimes (2–6 dS m −1 ), showed an increase in dry biomass, total soluble sugars proline content. sodium content was reduced conditions but not after single inoculation either strain or the control. The activity of antioxidant enzymes wheat leaves decreased stress...
The diversity of culturable Bacilli was investigated in six wheat cultivating agro‐ecological zones India viz : northern hills, north western plains, eastern central, peninsular, and southern hills. These regions are based on the climatic conditions such as pH, salinity, drought, temperature. A total 395 were isolated by heat enrichment different growth media. Amplified ribosomal DNA restriction analysis using three enzymes Alu I, Msp Hae III led to clustering these isolates into 19–27...
The beneficial microbes plays an important role in medical, industrial, and agricultural processes.The precious belong to different groups including archaea, bacteria, fungi which can be sort out from habitat such as extreme environments (acidic, alkaline, drought, pressure, salinity, temperatures) associated with plants (epiphytic, endophytic, rhizospheric) human.The exhibited multifunctional plant growth promoting (PGP) attributes N 2 -fixation, solubilization of micronutrients...
Abstract Archaea are unique microorganisms that present in ecological niches of high temperature, pH and salinity. A total 157 archaea were obtained from thirteen sediment, water rhizospheric soil samples collected Rann Kutch, Gujarat, India. With an aim to screen phosphate solubilizing archaea, a new medium was designed as Haloarchaea P Solubilization (HPS) medium. The supported the growth solubilization activity archaea. Employing HPS medium, twenty isolates showed P-solubilization....
The biodiversity of wheat associated bacteria was deciphered from the peninsular zone India. A total 264 isolated were analyzed through amplified ribosomal DNA restriction analysis (ARDRA, using three enzymes Alu I, Msp I and Hae III, which led to clustering these isolates into 12-16 groups for different sites at >75% similarity index, adding up 70 groups). 16S rRNA gene based phylogenetic analysis, revealed that all belonged phyla Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, Actinobacteria 32 distinct...
The diversity of culturable, cold‐active enzymes producing Bacilli was investigated from three sub‐glacial lakes north western Indian Himalayas. Amplified ribosomal DNA restriction analysis (ARDRA) using Alu I, Msp and Hae III led to the clustering 136 into 26, 23, 22 clusters at 75% similarity index Chandratal Lake, Dashair Pangong respectively. Phylogenetic based on 16S rRNA gene sequencing identification 35 that could be grouped in seven families viz .: Bacillaceae (48%),...
