Phytoremediation is an emerging technology that uses plants and their associated microbes
to clean up pollutants from the soil, water and air. In recent years, phytoremediation assisted …

Soil microbes can release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that influence plant growth
and pathogen resistance. Screening these microbial VOCs for their antifungal activity is a …

Plant growth promoting microbes (PGPMs) play major roles in diverse ecosystems, including
atmospheric nitrogen fixation, water uptake, solubilization, and transport of minerals from the …

Potato scab caused by Streptomyces is a serious soil-borne disease on potato. In this study,
we isolated and screened an endophytic bacteria strain 8-4 from healthy potatoes. The …

Induction of systemic tolerance in sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] against drought
stress was studied by screening a large collection of rhizobacterial isolates for their potential …

Ten fungal isolates belonging to the genera Beauveria (3), Hypocrea (1), Gibberella (1),
Metarhizium (2), Trichoderma (1) and Fusarium (2) were evaluated in the laboratory to …

Plants resist pathogen attack through a combination of constitutive and inducible defences.
Different types of induced resistance have been defined based on differences in signalling …

Combination of biocontrol agents that are compatible with each other is a strategic approach
to control the plant disease and pest. The present study was designed to evaluate the …

Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are a group of free-living bacteria that colonize
the rhizosphere and benefit the root growth in plants. Bacteria of diverse genera such as …
