A new isolate of genus Scytonema distinct from its closest relative cyanobacterium, hofmanni was found efficient in the removal and degradation organophosphorus (OP) pesticide, methyl parathion (MP). The cyanobacterial also capable utilizing phosphorus present MP following degradation, which evident increase growth (chlorophyll content), biomass, protein content, total comparison to cyanobacterium grown phosphate-deficient cultures. rapid by during initial 6 hours incubation defined...

To understand the mechanism underlying organophosphate pesticide toxicity, cyanobacterium Anabaena PCC 7120 was subjected to varied concentrations (0, 5, 10, 20 and 30 mg L(-1)) of profenofos effects were investigated in terms changes cellular physiology, genomic template stability protein expression pattern. The supplementation reduced growth, total pigment content photosynthetic efficiency test organism a dose dependent manner with maximum toxic effect at L(-1). high fluorescence intensity...

P II protein family is widespread in prokaryotes and plants. In this study, impacts of deficiency on the synthesis acetyl CoA carboxylase enzyme (ACCase) was analyzed Synechococcus sp. PCC 7942 by evaluating mRNA levels pyruvate kinase (PK), dehydrogenase (PDH), citrate synthase (CS), biotin (BS), (BC), carboxyl carrier (BCCP), transferase (CT) α β subunits. The deficient showed upregulation all above‐mentioned genes, except CS. Analyses genes required for coA exhibited a substantial...

Calcium being a signaling molecule and mediator of cell response, we examined the modulation in fatty acid hydrocarbon profiles wild type cyanobacterium Anabaena sp. PCC 7120 its ntcA mutant under influence different calcium chloride concentrations (0–10 mM). Dynamic modifications profile were evident through GC-FID analysis extracted lipids. In type, increase CaCl2 (10 mM) resulted unsaturation acids (observed terms high MUFA/PUFA ratio) while production was distinctly strain compared to at...

AbstractThe impact of hazard by chemical fungicides has necessitated the development safe and eco-friendly bio-fungicides. Trichoderma asperellum is one potent biocontrol agents for its cost-effectiveness large scale production on several agricultural industrial wastes been tested so far. Forest fire due to highly inflammable pine needles invasion weeds are considered as a major cause biodiversity loss in forests NW Himalaya. Therefore, present work, potential forest like five conifer...
