Journal ArticleDOI
Phosphate solubilizing bacteria and their role in plant growth promotion
Hilda Rodríguez,Reynaldo Fraga +1 more
TL;DR: Genetic manipulation of phosphate-solubilizing bacteria to improve their ability to improve plant growth may include cloning genes involved in both mineral and organic phosphate solubilization, followed by their expression in selected rhizobacterial strains.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetics of phosphate solubilization and its potential applications for improving plant growth-promoting bacteria
TL;DR: Preliminary results achieved in the engineering of bacterial strains for improving capacity for phosphate solubilization are presented, and application of this knowledge to improving agricultural inoculants is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gluconic acid production and phosphate solubilization by the plant growth-promoting bacterium Azospirillum spp.
TL;DR: In vitro gluconic acid formation and phosphate solubilization from sparingly soluble phosphorus sources by two strains of the plant growth-promoting bacteria A. brasilense and one strain of A. lipoferum JA4 are reported, which is the first report of in vitro glUconic Acid production and direct phosphate solUBilization by A. Brasilense.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mitigation of salt stress in wheat seedlings by a gfp-tagged Azospirillum lipoferum
TL;DR: It is indicated that, under high NaCl concentration, inoculation with modified A. lipoferum reduced the deleterious effects of NaCl; colonization patterns on roots were unaffected and the genetic marker did not induce undesirable effects on the interaction between the bacterium and the plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tolerance of transgenic canola plants (Brassica napus) amended with plant growth-promoting bacteria to flooding stress at a metal-contaminated field site.
Andrea J. Farwell,Susanne Vesely,Vincent Nero,Hilda Rodríguez,Kimberley McCormack,Saleh Shah,D. George Dixon,Bernard R. Glick +7 more
TL;DR: This is the first field study to document the increase in plant tolerance utilizing transgenic plants and plant growth-promoting bacteria exposed to multiple stressors.
