sp. nov., a novel endophytic bacterium with plant growth-promoting potential, isolated from root nodules of in Northwestern Algeria.

A thorough polyphasic taxonomic study, integrating genome-based taxonomic approaches, was carried out to characterize the RB5 strain isolated from root nodules of growing on the coastal dunes of Bousfer Beach (Oran, Algeria). The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain RB5 had the highest similarity to LMG27940 (98.94%) and IzPS32d (98.

Draft Genome Sequence of TLO3, Isolated from Olive Tree Rhizosphere Soil.

In this paper, we report Bacillus subtilis TLO3, which was isolated from olive tree rhizosphere and exhibits high amylolytic activity. The genome of Bacillus subtilis TLO3 contains 4,071 protein-coding sequences carried on one chromosome (4,232,155 bp) with an average G+C content of 44.1% and 119 RNA molecules.

Addition of wood sawdust during the co-composting of sewage sludge and wheat straw influences seeds germination.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of addition of sawdust co-composted with sewage sludge and wheat straw on seeds germination. Two mixtures were piled and composted over 90 days. The first mixture (C1) was composed of sewage sludge and wheat straw, while the second mixture (C2) was composed of sewage sludge, wheat straw and wood sawdust.

Polyphenols content of spent coffee grounds subjected to physico-chemical pretreatments influences lignocellulolytic enzymes production by Bacillus sp. R2.

The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of polyphenols content changes issued after physico-chemical treatments of spent coffee grounds on lignocellulolytic enzymes production by Bacillus sp. R2. Total polyphenols of the collected substrates were extracted with water under autoclaving conditions.
