Antagonistic endophytic bacteria associated with nodules of soybean (Glycine max L. ) and plant growth-promoting properties

Braz. j. microbiol; 49 (2), 2018
Abstract A total of 276 endophytic bacteria were isolated from the root nodules of soybean (Glycine max L.) grown in 14 sites in Henan Province, China. The inhibitory activity of these bacteria against pathogenic fungus Phytophthora sojae 01 was screened in vitro. Six strains with more than 63% inhibitor...

Analysis of bacterial communities and characterization of antimicrobial strains from cave microbiota

Braz. j. microbiol; 49 (2), 2018
Abstract In this study for the first-time microbial communities in the caves located in the mountain range of Hindu Kush were evaluated. The samples were analyzed using culture-independent (16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing) and culture-dependent methods. The amplicon sequencing results revealed a broad ...

Phenol degradation and genotypic analysis of dioxygenase genes in bacteria isolated from sediments

Braz. j. microbiol; 48 (2), 2017
Abstract The aerobic degradation of aromatic compounds by bacteria is performed by dioxygenases. To show some characteristic patterns of the dioxygenase genotype and its degradation specificities, twenty-nine gram-negative bacterial cultures were obtained from sediment contaminated with phenolic compound...
