Endophytic antagonize soil-borne fungal pathogens and suppress wilt complex disease in chickpea plants ( L.).

The present study aimed to identify potential endophytic bacteria antagonistic against three soil-borne fungal pathogens, and f.sp. causing root rot, collar rot, and fungal wilt diseases in chickpea plants, respectively.

Bio-scouring of Non-spinnable Cotton by a Crude Enzyme of a New Fungal Strain sp. VM-1, Isolated from Banana Pseudostem Waste.

Unlabelled: In the present study, we isolated and identified a new fungus, sp VM-1 from banana pseudostem waste. The fungal strain, sp. VM-1 was grown on a substrate (banana pseudostem, cottonseed hulls and cottonseed meal in the ratio of 60:30:10, respectively) for 7 days and the crude enzyme was extracted from the fermented substrate.

Isolation and partial characterization of antibacterial lipopeptide produced by Paenibacillus polymyxa HKA-15 against phytopathogen Xanthomonas campestris pv. phaseoli M-5.

An antibacterial metabolite was isolated from Paenibacillus polymyxa HKA-15, a soybean bacterial endophyte. The purification of the crude metabolite from Paenibacillus polymyxa HKA-15 was done by column chromatography. In TLC, a spot with an R ( f ) value of 0.

Antibacterial activity of metabolite produced by Paenibacillus polymyxa strain HKA-15 against Xanthomonas campestris pv. phaseoli.

An antibacterial metabolite extracted from Paenibacillus polymyxa HKA-15 showed strong inhibition against Xanthomonas campestris pv. phaseoli strains CP-1-1 and M-5. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of crude extract against strains CP-1-1 and M-5 was found to be 1.
