The rising trend in the cultivation of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) transgenic crops may cause a destabilization of agroecosystems, thus increasing concerns about the sustainability of Bt crops as a valid pest manageme...
Biofertilizer can be defined as preparation that contains?microbes capable of?nitrogen (N)-fixation and phosphate solubilization that promote plant?growth. These groups?of microbes, classified as Plant Growth-Promotin...
Since the pesticides are considered as an essential component for crops production through controlling pests, they have shown a negative effect on crops and soil environment when used intensively. This experiment was ...
Biosorption of silver ions onto A. chroococcum XU1 biomass and exopolysaccharide (EPS) was investigated. It was found that the overall biosorption process was the best when cell biomass and EPS were used together. Met...
This paper deals with adsorption of Pb and Hg on the exopolysaccharide produced by Azotobacter chroococcum XU1. The adsorption of metal ions was significantly affected by the pH of metal solutions (Pb(NO3)2 and Hg(NO3...
The pot culture experiment was carried out to evaluate the influence of different combinations of microbial inoculants (VAM + AZO + PSB) on soil phosphatase activity andnutrients (N, P, K, Cu, Zn, Fe, Cu & Mn) of Stev...
Drought stress is an abiotic stress that imposes serious constraints on plants. The present investigation was carried out to determine the inter-relationship between some physiological attributes of soybeans affected ...
An experiment was conducted on Catharanthus roseus to study the effect of seed treatments with native diazotrophs on its seedling growth and antioxidant enzyme activities. The treatments had significant influence on v...
