In this study, the characteristics of growth promotion by strain RP11 were studied by analysing 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) production, as well as phosphorus-solubilizing and potassium-solubilizing ability. In the pot culture conditions, we tested whether strain RP11 improved soybean seedlings tolerance against TBBPA by measuring the root length and physiological parameters of the seedlings treated with strain RP11 and different concentration of TBBPA (0, 5, 50, 100, and 1000 mg/kg) together.

Herein, by introducing a series of typical substituent groups including ,-dimethylaminopropyl (A), benzyl (B), dodecyl (D) and naphthylmethyl (N) in an imidazole ring (Im), three mono-immobilized and two co-immobilized imidazolium ionic liquid modified silicas, namely SilprAImCl, SilprBImCl, SilprNImCl, SilprDBImCl and SilprDAImCl, werre synthesized for removal and recovery of 2,4-dinitrophenol (2,4-DNP) from aqueous solutions. Adsorption kinetics, isotherms, thermodynamic analysis and desorption experiments have been carried out.

Trichoderma harzianum T-soybean plays an important role in controlling soybean root rot disease. However, the mechanism by which it improves plant tolerance to salt stress is not clear. In this study, we investigated the possible mechanism of T-soybean in mitigating the damage caused by salt stress in Cucumis sativus L plants.

The objective of this study was to investigate effects of tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) on soybean seedlings. Growth and physiological parameters of soybean seedlings were measured by exposing seedlings to different concentrations of TBBPA (0, 5, 10, 20, 40, 80, and 100 mg kg dry weight soil) in a greenhouse. Results showed 5 to 100 mg kg TBBPA treatment reduced the shoot height, stem diameter, dry weight, and fresh weight, while 5 to 100 mg kg TBBPA treatment reduced the chlorophyll content and induced production of malondialdehyde (MDA) in soybean leaves after 7 and 14 days of exposure.

The biochemical characteristics of wheat seedlings were analysed through laboratory simulation after co-treating seedlings with PS21 and 0, 5, 10, 20, 40, 80 and 100 mg kg TBBPA, respectively. The results showed that TBBPA reduced the total chlorophyll content and increased the malondialdehyde (MDA) content.
