Influence of purple non-sulfur bacterial augmentation on soil nutrient dynamics and rice () growth in acidic saline-stressed environments.

The aim of the current study was to assess the potency of the exopolymeric substances (EPS)-secreting purple non-sulfur bacteria (PNSB) on rice plants on acidic salt-affected soil under greenhouse conditions. A two-factor experiment was conducted following a completely randomized block design. The first factor was the salinity of the irrigation, and the other factor was the application of the EPS producing PNSB ( EPS18, EPS37, and EPS54), with four replicates.

Improving nitrogen content in soil and lemon balm (Melissa officinalis L.) yield by purple nonsulfur bacteria Rhodopseudomonas palustris in two consecutive seasons.

The study was conducted to assess the effects of nitrogen (N)-fixing purple nonsulfur bacteria (PNSB) Rhodopseudomonas palustris TLS06, VNW02, VNW64, and VNS89 on soil fertility, N uptake, essential oil (EO) content, growth, and yield of lemon balm. The experiment followed a completely randomized block design with 9 treatments and 3 replications. The treatments consisted of (i) applying 100% N as the recommended fertilizer rate (RFR), (ii) applying 85% N as RFR, (iii) applying 70% N as RFR, (iv) applying 55% N as RFR, (v) the treatment ii combined with N-PNSB, (vi) the treatment iii combined with N-PNSB, (vii) the treatment iv combined with N-PNSB, (viii) 0% as RFR combined with N-PNSB, and (ix) 0% N as RFR.

Using to Antagonize Causing Stem-End Rot Disease on Pomelo ().

Stem-end rot disease has been causing damage to the production of pomelos in Vietnam. The cur-rent study aimed to (i) isolate fungal pathogens causing pomelo stem-end rot disease (PSERD) and (ii) discover spp. that had an antagonistic ability against pathogens under in vitro conditions.

Isolation and characterization of novel potassium-solubilizing purple nonsulfur bacteria from acidic paddy soils using culture-dependent and culture-independent techniques.

The current research as aimed (i) to isolate and select the purple nonsulfur bacteria (PNSB) possessing the potassium-solubilizing ability from acid paddy fields and (ii) to evaluate the ability to release the plant growth-promoting substances (PGPS) of selected PNSB. A total of 35 acid sulfate (AS) soil samples were collected in An Giang province, Vietnam. Then, 70 PNSB strains were isolated from the AS soil samples.

Improvement of Nutrient Uptake, Yield of Black Sesame ( L.), and Alluvial Soil Fertility in Dyke by Spent Rice Straw from Mushroom Cultivation as Biofertilizer Containing Potent Strains of .

The aim of the current research was to evaluate the effects of members of purple nonsulfur bacteria (PNSB), strains of VNW02, TLS06, VNW64, and VNS89, mixed with spent rice straw (SRS) from mushroom cultivation as a carrier on promoting sesame growth and yield, and ameliorating the alluvial soil (AS) fertility in dykes. A 4 × 3 factorial experiment consisting of different levels of the solid PNSB biofertilizer mixture at 0, 3, 4, and 5 t·ha (0, 1.81 × 10, 2.

Enhancement of Green Soybean Growth and Yield in Alluvial Soil by Potent N-fixing Rhizospheric Bacteria.

<b>Background and Objective:</b> Nitrogen fertilizer causes adverse effects on the environment aspect, so biological nitrogen sources should be applied in agriculture. The objective of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of N₂-fixing rhizospheric bacteria in improving soil fertility, nitrogen (N) uptake, growth and yield of green soybean (<i>Glycine max</i> (L.) Merr).
