Impact of phosphate solubilizing bacteria on wheat (Triticum aestivum ) in the presence of pesticides

Braz. j. biol; 79 (1), 2019
Abstract Three phosphate solubilizing bacteria were isolated and identified by 16S rRNA sequencing as Pseudomonas putida, Pseudomonas sp and Pseudomonas fulva . The strains were subjected to plant biochemical testing and all the PGPR attributes were checked in the presence of pesticides (chlorpyrifos an...

Cost-effective production of bacterial cellulose using acidic food industry by-products

Braz. j. microbiol; 49 (supl.1), 2018
Abstract To reduce the cost of obtaining bacterial cellulose, acidic by-products of the alcohol and dairy industries were used without any pretreatment or addition of other nitrogen sources. Studies have shown that the greatest accumulation of bacterial cellulose (6.19 g/L) occurs on wheat thin stillage ...

Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria reduce aphid population and enhance the productivity of bread wheat

Braz. j. microbiol; 49 (supl.1), 2018
Abstract Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria increase plant growth and give protection against insect pests and pathogens. Due to the negative impact of chemical pesticides on environment, alternatives to these chemicals are needed. In this scenario, the biological methods of pest control offer an eco-f...

Combined application of bio-organic phosphate and phosphorus solubilizing bacteria (Bacillus strain MWT 14) improve the performance of bread wheat with low fertilizer input under an arid climate

Braz. j. microbiol; 49 (supl.1), 2018
Abstract This study was aimed to investigate the effect of bio-organic phosphate either alone or in combination with phosphorus solubilizing bacteria strain (Bacillus MWT-14) on the growth and productivity of two wheat cultivars (Galaxy-2013 and Punjab-2011) along with recommended (150-100 NP kg ha−...

Fusarium and Aspergillus mycotoxins contaminating wheat silage for dairy cattle feeding in Uruguay

Braz. j. microbiol; 47 (4), 2016
Abstract Wheat is one of the most important cultivated cereals in Uruguay for human consumption; however, when harvest yields are low, wheat is usually used in ensiling for animal feeding. Ensiling is a forage preservation method that allows for storage during extended periods of time while maintaining n...

Isolation and identification by 16S rRNA sequence analysis of plant growth-promoting azospirilla from the rhizosphere of wheat

Braz. j. microbiol; 47 (3), 2016
ABSTRACT The main objective of the present study was to isolate phytohormone-producing, phosphate-solubilizing strains of Azospirillum from wheat to be used as inoculants for plant growth promotion. Five Azospirillum strains were isolated from the rhizosphere of field-grown wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), ...

Alleviation of salt stress by halotolerant and halophilic plant growth-promoting bacteria in wheat (Triticum aestivum)

Braz. j. microbiol; 47 (3), 2016
ABSTRACT In the current study, 18 halotolerant and halophilic bacteria have been investigated for their plant growth promoting abilities in vitro and in a hydroponic culture. The bacterial strains have been investigated for ammonia, indole-3-acetic acid and 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate-deaminase pro...

Diversidad genética de aislamientos de Fusarium graminearum sensu lato asociados con la fusariosis de la espiga en trigo de diversas localidades argentinas
Genetic diversity of Fusarium graminearum sensu lato isolates from wheat associated with Fusarium Head Blight in diverse geographic locations of Argentina

Rev. argent. microbiol; 47 (3), 2015
La fusariosis de la espiga de trigo es una importante enfermedad para la región pampeana Argentina; Fusarium graminearum es el principal patógeno asociado. Se estudió el polimorfismo del ADN de un conjunto de aislamientos utilizando las técnicas de IGS-RFLP e ISSR. La técnica de IGS-RFLP produjo 41 ...
