Interrelated effects of mycorrhiza and free-living nitrogen fixers cascade up to abovegr ound herbivores [PDF]

, 2015
Aboveground plant performance is strongly influenced by belowground microorganisms, some of which are pathogenic and have negative effects, while others, such as nitrogen-fixing bacteria and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, usually have positive effects ...

Strategies for Enhancing Resilience in Horticultural Crops Against Combined Abiotic Stresses

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 177, Issue 5, September/October 2025.
ABSTRACT Horticultural crops are increasingly exposed to simultaneous abiotic stresses such as drought, salinity, and temperature extremes, which often exacerbate each other's effects, leading to severe yield and quality losses. Addressing these multifaceted challenges necessitates the development and application of integrated and innovative strategies.

Comparison of the effectiveness of wheat roots colonization by Azotobacter chroococcum and Pantoea agglomerans using serological techniques

Plant, Soil and Environment, 2007
Colonization of Azotobacter chroococcum Mac 27 strain on wheat roots was monitored using double antibody sandwich enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (DAS ELISA) and immuno-fluorescence in terms of colonization sites, migration and survival of the bacteria.

Enhancing polyamide fabric performance through green reduction of graphene oxide for superior ultraviolet protection and electrical conductivity

Coloration Technology, Volume 141, Issue 1, Page 26-43, February 2025.
Abstract In this study, a polyamide warp‐knitted fabric was treated with a graphene oxide (GO) aqueous dispersion using a laboratory‐type Jigger dyeing machine. Subsequently, the GO underwent a chemical reduction process, employing rosehip extract powder as a nature‐based reducing agent. The effect of reduction time (12 and 24 h) was investigated.

The Cytology and Life-cycle of Azotobacter chroococcum [PDF]

Journal of General Microbiology, 1953
SUMMARY: Azotobacter chroococcum exists in two cytologically distinct vegetative forms. In one the appearance is that of a typical bacterial resting cell, with a large vesicular nucleus. In the other the cytoplasm appears homogeneously vacuolated and refractive; this is correlated with a high lipid content.

Soil inoculation with nitrogen‐fixing bacteria to supplement maize fertilizer need

Agronomy Journal, Volume 117, Issue 1, January/February 2025.
Abstract Nitrogen (N) is an essential plant nutrient, but low and variable plant‐available N levels in agricultural soils often limit maximum grain production. The objective of this study was to determine if a free‐living nitrogen‐fixing bacterial inoculant (NFI) could supply biologically‐fixed N as an additional N source and if this enhances maize ...
