Insights into the microbial composition and potential efficiency of selected commercial biofertilisers [PDF]
Heliyon, 2020 This study investigated 13-commercial biofertilisers for their microbial contents and potential functional capabilities using a culture-based approach. Isolates obtained were identified by sequencing the partial I6S rRNA gene and ITS 1 and 2 regions and screened for plant growth-promoting capabilities.

Rejuvenation of Biofertiliser for Sustainable Agriculture Economic Development (SAED)
, 2014 Thesis: The economy of India thrives on agriculture. Agriculture is the most practiced occupation by Indians. For agriculture fertilizer is very much essential to enhance proper growth and yield of crops. Of late farmers have been using chemical fertilizers for quicker and better yield.

Bacillus based biocontrol on Brassica [PDF]
, 2008 Many bacterial strains have been shown to mediate protection to biotic stress and promote growth of plants. Different bacteria can mediate protection in different ways e.g. by inhibition, competition or increasing plant resistance.

Modelling animal waste pathogen transport from agricultural land to streams [PDF]
, 2013 The transport of animal waste pathogens from crop land to streams can potentially elevate pathogen levels in stream water. Applying animal manure into crop land as fertilizers is a common practice in developing as well as in developed countries.

Screening, evaluation and selection ofphosphate-solubilising fungi as potential biofertiliser [PDF]
Journal of soil science and plant nutrition, 2011 Phosphate-solubilising saprophytic fungi have a potential application in plant nutri- tion; therefore, the aim of this study was 1) to perform a screening and isolation of native phosphofungi from volcanic soils of southern Chile, 2) to select a liquid medium for the evaluation of these phosphofungi and 3) to test a selected phospho- fungus as a ...

Effect of aliphatic chain length on the chemical structures of low molecular weight hyperbranched polyesters [PDF]
, 2018 Low molecular weight hyperbranched (HB) polyesters were synthesized via melt polymerization from trimethylolpropane and three aliphatic dicarboxylic acids, namely, succinic acid (SA), adipic acid (AA) and dodecanedioic acid (DA). The degrees of branching
