Minimal NOx emission by Lysinibacillus sphaericus in nutrient poor soil

open access: yesSoil & Environment, 2018
The aim of this study was to determine whether nitrogen dioxide emissions by Lysinibacillus sphaericus exist in nutrient poor soil. First, we evaluated the presence of two genes involved in denitrification (nosF and nosD) by PCR screening of five ...

Improving Crop Yield and Nutrient Use Efficiency via Biofertilization—A Global Meta-analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
The application of microbial inoculants (biofertilizers) is a promising technology for future sustainable farming systems in view of rapidly decreasing phosphorus stocks and the need to more efficiently use available nitrogen (N).

Phytostimulation and biofertilization in wheat by cyanobacteria

open access: yesJournal of Industrial Microbiology & Biotechnology, 2010
Cyanobacteria are commonly used for the phytostimulation and biofertilization of agriculture crops due to their nitrogen-fixing ability. However, the contribution by their phytohormones has been neglected. This study focuses on the screening of rhizospheric and free-living cyanobacteria for in vitro phytohormones production and growth stimulation in ...

Endophytic fungi: a tool for plant growth promotion and sustainable agriculture

open access: yesMycology, 2022
Endophytic fungi are found in most, if not all, plant species on the planet. They colonise inner plant tissues without causing symptoms of disease, thus providing benefits to the host plant while also benefiting from this interaction.
