Synergism of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (LSE-2) nodule endophyte with Bradyrhizobium sp. (LSBR-3) for improving plant growth, nutrient acquisition and soil health in soybean
K. C. Kumawat,Poonam Sharma,Asmita Sirari,Inderjeet Singh,B. S. Gill,Ummed Singh,Krishna Saharan +6 more
TL;DR: It is strongly suggested that endophytic diazotroph LSE-2 can be used as potent bio-inoculant along with LSBR-3 as bio-enhancer for improving soybean productivity in a sustainable system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Potential of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria-plant interactions in mitigating salt stress for sustainable agriculture: A review
TL;DR: In this paper , the interaction of salt-tolerating microbes with plants improves crop productivity under salinity stress along with potential salt tolerance mechanisms involved and will open new avenues for capitalizing on cultivable diverse microbial communities to strengthen plant salt tolerance and, thus, to refine agricultural practices and production under saline conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dual Microbial Inoculation, a Game Changer? - Bacterial Biostimulants With Multifunctional Growth Promoting Traits to Mitigate Salinity Stress in Spring Mungbean.
K. C. Kumawat,Poonam Sharma,Sharon Nagpal,R.K. Gupta,Asmita Sirari,Ramakrishnan M. Nair,H Bindumadhava,Sudeep Singh +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated a coordinated effect of compatible consortium [salt tolerating Rhizobium and rhizobacterium with 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) deaminase] in enhancing plant growth promoting (PGP) traits, symbiotic efficiency, nutrient acquisition, anti-oxidative enzymes, grain yield and associated profitability in spring mungbean.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of Zinc solubilization by Endophytic Bacteria in Legume Rhizosphere
TL;DR: In this article, a total of 48 endophytic bacterial isolates from soybean and summer mungbean rhizosphere were screened for zinc solubilizing ability in Trisminimal medium separately amended with inorganic zinc compounds viz. zinc oxide (ZnO) and zinc phosphate Zn3(PO4)2 by plate assay method.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rhizospheric microbiome: Bio-based emerging strategies for sustainable agriculture development and future perspectives.
TL;DR: In this article, a review exploits present and future strategies for rhizospheric microbiome management with the aim to generate a comprehensive understanding of the known tools and techniques, which can be used for designing and implementing intensive farming microbiome management approaches to maximize resource productivity and stress tolerance of agro-ecosystems.
