Salinity is a key devastating abiotic factor that hinders the development and yield of safflower. The sole combined application zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) biofertilizer (BF) to improve salt tolerance in safflower has not been thoroughly explored. response plants pot experiment foliar spray ZnO-NPs alone combination with BF was thus detected. We determined ZnO-NP concentration 17 mg/L sufficient protect against salinity (250 mM NaCl) by increasing plant productivity, percent water...
Nanoparticles (NPs) have recently emerged as potential agents for plants to ameliorate abiotic stresses by acting nano-fertilizers. In this regard, the influence of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) on plant responses copper (Cu) stress has been poorly understood. Hence, present study was executed explore role ZnO-NPs (foliar) and 24-epibrassinolide (EBL; root dipping) individually or in combined form resilience tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) Cu stress. Tomato seeds were sown make nursery;...
The growth and persistence of rhizobacteria in soils are highly impacted by moisture stress. In this study, we report the first transcript analysis four Pseudomonas strains (PS1, PS2, PS3, PS4) isolated from root-soil interface rice maize associated with different levels during water deprivation. Filtered sp. cells incubated at low (RH10%) high (RH85%) relative humidity showed decreased survival all RH10% when compared RH85%. RT-PCR differential expression treS (trehalose synthase), rpoS...
The release of effluents containing cadmium ions into aquatic ecosystems is hazardous to humans and marine organisms. In the current investigation, biosorption Cd
Two billion people worldwide take rice (Oryza sativa L.) as a staple food. Phosphorus (P) and Nitrogen (N) are the major requirements of rice; although these available in limited concentrations within growing regions. Among different types Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), Phosphate solubilizing (PSRB) constitute an important class. These known for plant growth promotion by enhancing P N uptake. PSRB nowadays used biofertilizers to restore soil health. Under present investigation...
The presence of inorganic pollutants such as Cadmium(II) and Chromium(VI) could destroy our environment ecosystem. To overcome this problem, much attention was directed to microbial technology, whereas some microorganisms resist the toxic effects decrease concentration while viability is sustained. Therefore, we built up a complementary strategy study biofilm formation isolated strains under stress heavy metals. As target resistive organisms, Rhizobium-MAP7 Rhodotorula ALT72 were identified....
The principal intent of the investigation was to examine influence joint application methyl jasmonate (MeJA, 10 μM) and a nitric oxide-donor sodium nitroprusside (SNP, 100 wheat plants grown under cadmium (Cd as CdCl2, stress. Cd stress suppressed plant growth, chlorophylls (Chl), PSII maximum efficiency (Fv /Fm ), but it elevated leaf root Cd, contents proline, phytochelatins, malondialdehyde, hydrogen peroxide, well activity lipoxygenase. MeJA SNP applied jointly or singly improved...
An innovative approach to ticks and insect pests management is necessary mitigate the challenges posed by indiscriminate use of chemical pesticides, which can lead resistance development environmental pollution. Despite their great potential, biological control agents have significant manufacturing, application, stability limitations. Currently, using phytochemicals, biosynthesized nanoparticles, bioagents get rid arthropods might be a good alternative that would make farmers less worried...
ABSTRACT Leishmaniasis, caused by protozoan parasites of the genus Leishmania , affects nearly 12 million people annually worldwide, and has limited, highly toxic therapeutic options. This study reports synthesis, in vitro silico evaluations four novel antimony complexes ( 3a‐3d ) as potent safe antileishmanial agents. The were synthesized using Sb‐salts with different phenolic ligands characterized elemental analysis, FT‐IR NMR spectroscopic techniques. Structural parameters further...
An efficient protocol for in-vitro propagation of an important ornamental crop, Petunia hybrida Vilm. Cv. "Bravo" was developed. The explants that were used to carry out the experiment Leaf segments, nodal segments and shoot tips. Nodal recorded highest per cent asepsis followed by tips leaf segments. Asepsis found be when sterilized with Fungicide (Carbendazim) 0.02% duration 30 min 0.1% HgCl2 10 then ethanol 70% s. Longer sterilant treatment showed more necrotic effects on explants, thus...
The large genetic evolution due to the sexual reproduction-mediated gene assortments and propensities has made Venturia inaequalis (causing apple scab) unique with respect its management strategies. resistance in germplasm against scab, being controlled for by more than fifteen genes, limited alteration-based investigations. Therefore, a biological approach of bacterial endophyte community dynamics was envisioned across context fungistatic behavior V. inaequalis. A total 155 colonies...
Abiotic stress, especially a lack of water, can significantly reduce crop yields. In this study, we evaluated the physiological and biochemical effects potassium sulfate (K2SO4) fertilizer varied irrigation regimes on economically significant oilseed crop, Brassica juncea L, under open field conditions. Two cultivars (RH-725 RH-749) B. were used in randomized complete block design experiment with three replicates. Irrigation consisted control (double irrigation: once at 50% flowering another...
The rose aphid Macrosiphum rosae (L.) is now a globally spread insect species damages plants affecting quality and productivity. Botanical insecticides are excellent alternative to synthetic pesticides, as they have minimal environmental persistence toxicity, more compatible with the biocontrol agents than pesticides. This study aimed evaluate extracts of five plant i.e. Citrullus colocynthis, Tagetes erecta, Rosmarinus officinalis, Thymus vulgaris, Withania somnifera; entomopathogenic...
In this study, a natural low-coast, efficient, and eco- bio-sorbent plant material (Ludwigia stolonifera), with both parts of the root shoot, were studied for removal cationic metal ions, lead Pb2+ chromium Cr6+, via batch mode experiments to evaluate their maximum adsorption capacity, held comparison between used roots shoots, based on highest bio-sorption potential. Optimization parameters, such as contact time, pH, (root shoot) dosage, initial ion concentration was conducted. The results...
Aphids are serious pests of a wide range agricultural crops, including pomegranates and grapevines. In addition, due to the negative environmental impacts chemical insecticides, these developing important resistance against aphicides. Therefore, one alternative method control aphids is use essential oils (EO). The present study aimed evaluate insecticidal activity Citrus aurantium C. reticulata peel EO at different concentrations with exposure periods pomegranate grapevine aphids, Aphis...
The current work is aimed at isolating and identifying new Entomopathogenic bacterium (EPB) strains associated with Steinernema feltiae assessing the EPB's biocontrol potential on Aphis punicae illinoisensis adults in laboratory. From S. feltiae, five bacterial isolates were isolated molecularly characterized. Lysinibacillus xylanilyticus strain TU-2, BN-13, Serratia liquefaciens TU-6, Stenotrophomonas tumulicola T5916-2-1b, Pseudochrobactrum saccharolyticum CCUG are strains. Pathogenicity...
Phosphate solubilizing rhizobacteria are considered as an important alternative to increase the availability of accumulated phosphates through solubilization.
