Bacillus licheniformis and Bacillus velezensis from Rhizosphere of Clerodendrum infortunatum L. Promote Plant Growth and Resistance to Sclerotium rolfsii in Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.

In the current study, thirty bacterial strains isolated from the rhizosphere of Clerodendrum infortunatum L. were evaluated for the properties related to the plant growth promotion and disease resistance. Here, all the selected strains were screened for its antagonistic effect towards the phytopathogen Sclerotium rolfsii and also for the production of bioactive compounds known to promote the plant growth.

Chitosan and Gold Nanoparticles Supplementation for Augmentation of Indole-3-Acetic Acid Production by Rhizospheric Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Plant Growth Enhancement.

The present study has been focused to evaluate the effect of chitosan nanoparticles (CNPs) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) on the phytohormone production by rhizospheric Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The gold nanoparticles were synthesized biologically and characterized by UV-Visible spectrophotometry, transmission electron microscopy, and X-ray diffraction analysis. The indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) production by P.

Chitosan nanoparticles augmented indole-3-acetic acid production by rhizospheric Pseudomonas monteilii.

Rhizospheric Pseudomonas spp. are widely used for upgrading sustainable agriculture because of their ability to execute multifaceted plant beneficial functions. In the current study, chitosan nanoparticles (CNPs) were used to analyze their effect on plant beneficial properties of rhizospheric Pseudomonas monteilii.

Biofilm and Biocontrol Modulation of Paenibacillus sp. CCB36 by Supplementation with Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles and Chitosan Nanoparticles.

Endophytic bacteria with multi-trait plant beneficial features have applications to enhance agricultural productivity by supporting the plant growth, yield, and disease resistance. In this study, Paenibacillus sp. CCB36 was isolated from the rhizome of Curcuma caesia Roxb.

Application of Encapsulated Bacillus licheniformis Supplemented with Chitosan Nanoparticles and Rice Starch for the Control of Sclerotium rolfsii in Capsicum annuum (L.) Seedlings.

Rhizosphere encourages the survival and functioning of diverse microbial communities through the influence of plant roots. Likewise, the rhizobacterial functioning contribute to the growth and productivity of crop plants significantly. With the advancement of nanotechnology, the nanoparticles can expect to augment the performance of plant beneficial microorganisms including the rhizobacteria and hence have the promise to boost sustainable agricultural practices.

Rhizobacterial biofilm and plant growth promoting trait enhancement by organic acids and sugars.

In the study, sp. K6 and were found to form an enhanced biofilm when cultured in the presence of organic acids and sugars. Here, the highest biofilm could be observed for sp.

Evaluation of plant probiotic performance of Pseudomonas sp. encapsulated in alginate supplemented with salicylic acid and zinc oxide nanoparticles.

Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are efficient candidates for the application in agricultural field to enhance the crop yield and to suppress the plant diseases. As the changes in agro-climatic conditions negatively affect the soil fertility and functioning of soil microbial community, there are significant demand for the innovative delivery methods for the PGPR to ensure its optimal performance. In the present study, Pseudomonas sp.

Biogenic Gold Nanoparticle Supplementation to Plant Beneficial Pseudomonas monteilii was Found to Enhance its Plant Probiotic Effect.

Rhizosphere provides unique space for intensive chemical conversation between plant and microorganisms. The common rhizobacterial mechanisms which have been demonstrated to promote plant growth include production of phytohormones, nitrogen fixation, synthesis of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate deaminase (ACC deaminase) and phosphate solubilization. The microbially produced phytohormone indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) is considered to have significant role in interaction between plant and bacteria.
