Article Synopsis
- AM fungi create a symbiotic relationship with crop plants, improving nutrient uptake and stress tolerance, but different species provide varying benefits.
- Research focused on how Medicago truncatula responds to colonization by high-benefit (Rhizophagus irregularis) and low-benefit (Glomus aggregatum) AM fungi.
- Colonization by R. irregularis led to better growth and nutrient absorption linked to specific genes related to nutrient transport and photosynthesis, while G. aggregatum triggered defense response genes, suggesting it may be perceived as a threat by the host plant.
In Nepal, little is known about the microbiological profile of wound infections in children and their antimicrobial susceptibility patterns. Total of 450 pus/wound swab samples collected were cultured using standard microbiological techniques and the colonies grown were identified with the help of biochemical tests. The antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed by Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion technique.
