Quorum quenching activity of endophytic sp. EBS9 from and its biocontrol applications.

This study investigates the quorum quenching (QQ) activity of an endophytic bacterium, sp. EBS9, isolated from the native medicinal plant of Rajasthan, and its biocontrol potential against the soft rot pathogen subsp. ().

Bio-bleaching of ankara pulp with xylanase-producing bacterial consortium for sustainable handmade paper production.

The paper industry faces two critical challenges: the scarcity of raw materials and the environmental impact of chemical waste pollution. Addressing the first challenge involves harnessing alternative, sustainable raw materials, while the second challenge can be mitigated through the adoption of bio-bleaching processes, which significantly reduce chemical consumption while enhancing paper brightness and quality. This study proposes a solution to both challenges by using non-woody Calotropis procera (Ankara) and a xylanase-producing microbial consortium for sustainable handmade paper production, a combination not extensively explored in prior research To evaluate this approach, the process was divided into three stages.

Improved seed germination and plant growth mediated by compounds synthesized by endophytic (isolate 29) isolated from (L.) Benth.

Unlabelled: Plant-microbe interactions are remarkably diverse and dynamic. These interactions can be in the form of endophytic association. Colonization of endophytic microflora in crop plants improves crop health leading to crop enhancement.
