Burkholderia caribensis strain MWAP71 was isolated from rhizosphere soil microaggregates in Martinique. The extracellular polysaccharide produced by this strain was found to be composed of D-glucose (D-Glc), 6-deoxy-L-talose (L-6dTal), 3-deoxy-D-manno-oct-2-ulosonic acid (Kdo), and an O-acetyl group in a molar ratio of 2:1:1:1. The primary structure of the polysaccharide was shown by sugar analysis, electrospray mass spectrometry, partial acid hydrolysis and 1-D and 2-D NMR spectroscopy to consist of a tetrasaccharide repeating unit having the following structure: [structure in text].

Unlabelled: Phosphorus (P) is the key to several structural molecules and catalyzes numerous biochemical reactions in plant body besides its involvement in energy transfer. Any deficit in P availability is likely to result in reduced RNA and protein content, inhibiting crop growth and development. Thus, availability of soil P is extremely crucial for plant growth especially in acid soils of India, where most of the fraction is bound to solid phase rendering their availability.

Gram-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming, motile bacteria, designated strains F2 and PGU16, were isolated from the midgut crypts of the bordered plant bug , collected in Okinawa prefecture, Japan. Although these strains were derived from different host individuals collected at different times, their 16S rRNA gene sequences were identical and showed the highest similarity to MWAP64 (99.3 %).

Iron is essential for bacterial survival, and most bacteria capture iron by producing siderophores. bacteria produce various types of bioactive secondary metabolites, such as ornibactin and malleobactin siderophores. In this study, the genome analysis of genomes showed a putative novel siderophore gene cluster , which is highly similar to the ornibactin and malleobactin gene clusters but does not have , a gene encoding a formyltransferase for N-‑hydroxy-ornithine formylation.

Article Synopsis
- The growth and productivity of plants depend on their genetics, nutrients, and microbial communities they host, known as the holobiont.
- Engineering beneficial root microbiomes can enhance crop production while reducing nutrient usage.
- In a study with six bacterial strains from sugarcane stalks, results showed that these microbes improved plant growth and nutrient uptake, especially when nitrogen fertilizer levels were low, highlighting the importance of reduced fertilization for maximizing microbial benefits.

The fungal-interactive (fungiphilic) strains BS001, BS007, BS110, and BS437 have previously been preliminarily assigned to the species Paraburkholderia terrae. However, in the (novel) genus Paraburkholderia, an as-yet unresolved subgroup exists, that clusters around Paraburkholderia hospita (containing the species P. terrae, P.
