The capability of plant growth promoting microbes to survive under abiotic stresses has important significance for improving plant growth and productivity. Among the various plant growth promoting biomolecules produced by microbes, exopolysaccharide (EPS) help microbes to survive in inhospitable environments and endure environmental stressful conditions. In the present study, a yeast strain CAH2 was isolated from Beta vulgaris rhizosphere soil and identified as Rhodotorula sp., based on the partial 18S rRNA gene sequence analysis. Rhodotorula sp. strain CAH2 was found to tolerate higher concentrations of Al (6 mM), NaCl (150 mM) and PEG-6000 (15%, w/v). The strain CAH2 was shown to produce 7.5 g L of EPS in the production medium with sucrose and yeast extract as a carbon and nitrogen sources, respectively. The EPS yield was increased constantly with increasing concentrations of Al, NaCl and PEG-6000. The structural feature of EPS studied through FT-IR and NMR spectral analysis confirmed the presence of glucose, mannose and galactose. The yeast strain CAH2 was produced multiple plant growth promoting traits in the presence and absence of abiotic stresses. Finally, these results indicate that the production of EPS could be safeguard the plant growth promoting Rhodotorula sp. strain CAH2 from unfavourable environmental conditions.

Burns carry a large surface area, varying in shapes and depths, and an elevated risk of infection. Regardless of the underlying etiology, burns pose significant medical challenges and a high mortality rate. Given the limitations of current therapies, tissue-engineering-based treatments for burns are inevitable.

Plants possess remarkable regenerative abilities to form de novo vasculature after damage and in response to pathogens that invade and withdraw nutrients. To look for common factors that affect vascular formation upon stress, we searched for Arabidopsis thaliana genes differentially expressed upon Agrobacterium infection, nematode infection and plant grafting. One such gene was cell wall related and highly induced by all three stresses and was named ENHANCED XYLEM AND GRAFTING1 (EXG1) since mutations in it promoted ectopic xylem formation in Vascular cell Induction culture System Using Arabidopsis Leaves (VISUAL) and enhanced graft formation.

Application of herbicide-degrading bacteria is an effective strategy to remove herbicide in soil. However, the ability of bacteria to degrade a herbicide is often severely limited in the presence of other pesticide. In this study, the atrazine-degrading strain Klebsiella varicola FH-1 and acetochlor-degrading strain Bacillus Aryabhatti LY-4 were used as parent strains to construct the recombinant RH-92 strain through protoplast fusion technology.
