Journal ArticleDOI
Microbial and Plant-Assisted Bioremediation of Heavy Metal Polluted Environments: A Review
TL;DR: The toxic effects of heavy metal pollution and the mechanisms used by microbes and plants for environmental remediation are discussed and the importance of modern biotechnological techniques and approaches in improving the ability of microbial enzymes to effectively degrade heavy metals at a faster rate is emphasized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacterial Mitigation of Drought Stress in Crop Plants: Implications for Sustainable Agriculture
TL;DR: Multifaceted PGPRs are potential candidates for biofertilizer production to lessen the detrimental effects of drought stress on crops cultivated in arid regions and ways of augmenting their efficacy as bio-inoculants under field conditions are proffered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of actinomycetes isolates for plant growth promoting traits and their effects on drought tolerance in maize.
Chinenyenwa Fortune Chukwuneme,Olubukola Oluranti Babalola,Funso Raphael Kutu,Omena Bernard Ojuederie +3 more
TL;DR: The findings of this study suggest that Arthrobacter arilaitensis and Streptomyces pseudovenezuelae are important tools capable of being developed into bio-inoculants to effectively improve drought tolerance in plants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bioprospecting of microbial strains for biofuel production: metabolic engineering, applications, and challenges
Mobolaji Felicia Adegboye,Omena Bernard Ojuederie,Paola Talia,Paola Talia,Olubukola Oluranti Babalola +4 more
TL;DR: A review of the potential utilization of engineered strains to produce biofuel and gives prospects for improvement in metabolic engineering for new strain development using advanced technologies can be found in this article, where a wide range of novel compounds have been manufactured through engineering metabolic pathways or endogenous metabolism optimizations by metabolic engineers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of genetic diversity in Vigna unguiculata L. (Walp) accessions using inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) and start codon targeted (SCoT) polymorphic markers.
David O. Igwe,Celestine A. Afiukwa,Benjamin Ewa Ubi,Kenneth Idika Ogbu,Omena Bernard Ojuederie,George N. Ude +5 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that SCoT markers were more efficient than ISSR for genetic diversity studies in V. unguiculata and can be integrated in the exploration of their genetic diversity for improvement and germplasm utilization.
