Effects of LPS from , a Purple Non-Sulfur Bacterium (PNSB), on the Gene Expression of Rice Root.

The effects of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) from , a purple non-sulfur bacterium (PNSB), on the gene expression of the root of rice () were investigated by next generation sequencing (NGS) RNA-seq analysis. The rice seeds were germinated on agar plates containing 10 pg/mL of LPS from NBRC 12203 (type culture). Three days after germination, RNA samples were extracted from the roots and analyzed by RNA-seq.

Effects of Seed Bio-Priming by Purple Non-Sulfur Bacteria (PNSB) on the Root Development of Rice.

The effects of seed bio-priming (seed soaking) with purple non-sulfur bacteria (PNSB) on the grain productivity and root development of rice were examined by a field study and laboratory experiments, respectively. Two PNSB strains, sp. Tsuru2 and sp.
