Abstract:
... Coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.), one of the oldest spice plants globally, has wide usage, mainly owing to its essential oil content. This study investigated the effects of rhizobacteria, mycorrhizae, and their combination on the yield and essential oil profile of coriander. The treatments resulted in statistically higher yield properties and essential oil values than the control. The effects of ...
... Domestication processes, amplified by breeding programs, have allowed the selection of more productive genotypes and more suitable crop lines capable of coping with the changing climate. Notwithstanding these advancements, the impact of plant breeding on the ecology of plant–microbiome interactions has not been adequately considered yet. This includes the possible exploitation of beneficial plant– ...
... Malic acid is one of the organic acids which is used in various industries including food and pharmaceuticals. Biotechnological production of malic acid by an efficient microorganism is highly desirable as the process will be eco-friendly and cost-effective. In this study, malic acid synthesis by Zymomonas mobilis was studied by expressing Escherichia coli malic enzyme gene under Pchap, Ptac and P ...

Abstract:
... Induced systemic resistance (ISR) is one of the most studied mechanisms of plant–microbe interaction and is considered a very promising alternative for integrated pest management programs. In our study, we explored the plant defense response induced by Bacillus velezensis BBC047 in relation to its application before or after Botrytis cinerea infection of tomato plants. The inoculation of BBC047 di ...

Abstract:
... The effects of theasinensin A (TSA) on healthy C57BL/6J mice were investigated. Results showed that long-term administration of 100 mg/kg body weight/day TSA might be non-toxic to healthy mice based on the unaltered basal biochemical indicators related to glucose and lipid metabolism, inflammatory factors and hepatic injury. On the contrary, TSA stimulated the rate of lipid turnover and browning o ...

Abstract:
... Explosive pollutants remaining in global soils are serious threats to human health and ecological safety. Soils contaminated by trinitrotoluene (TNT) and cyclotrimethylene trinitramine (RDX) are simulated in this study and remediated using vetiver grass and effective microorganism (EM) flora to determine the efficacy of combined remediation in reshaping the microenvironment and bacterial community ...

Abstract:
... As an important bioenergy crop, switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) can produce high biomass yield. However, its biomass yield could be further increased by using beneficial microbe inoculation methods. In this study, a plant beneficial symbiotic microbe strain 11F was isolated and identified as Streptomyces alfalfae, which can produce IAA and siderophore. It is also known to have phosphate-solubili ...
... Beneficial rhizobacteria can stimulate changes in plant root development. Although root system growth is mediated by multiple factors, the regulated distribution of the phytohormone auxin within root tissues plays a principal role. Auxin transport facilitators help to generate the auxin gradients and maxima that determine root structure. Here, we show that the plant-growth-promoting rhizobacterial ...
... Seed inoculation with microbial cells is one of the potential invigouration techniques for enhancing the emergence and growth of plants. Herein, we approached a new localized delivery of beneficial microbial cells (Methylobacterium) by invigorating seeds with electrospun Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) nanofibre containing microbial cells. Methylobacterium is a growth promoting bacteria that has recently ...
... Seed quality is an important aspect of the modern cultivation strategies since uniform germination and high seedling vigor contribute to successful establishment and crop performance. To enhance germination, beneficial microbes belonging to arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, Trichoderma spp., rhizobia and other bacteria can be applied to seeds before sowing via coating or priming treatments. Their pres ...

Abstract:
... During millions of years of evolution, land plants and microorganisms have established elaborate partnerships. Microbes play essential roles in plant fitness and help plants cope with environmental challenges. Vice versa, plants provide the microbes with a niche and food. In the soil, a complex network of interactions mediated by metabolic signals drives the relationship between plants and microbe ...
