Plant growth promotion by phosphate solubilizing bacteria

Acta Microbiologica et Immunologica Hungarica, 2009
Most agronomic soils contain large reserves of total phosphorus [P], but the fixation and precipitation of P cause P deficiency, and in turn, restrict the growth of crops severely. Phosphorus replenishment, especially in sustainable production systems, remains a major challenge as it is mainly fertilizer-dependent.

Enriching vermicompost by nitrogen fixing and phosphate solubilizing bacteria

Bioresource Technology, 2001
The effect of inoculation of vermicompost with nitrogen-fixing Azotobacter chroococcum strains, Azospirillum lipoferum and the phosphate solubilizing Pseudomonas striata on N and P contents of the vermicompost was assessed. Inoculation of N2 fixing bacteria into vermicompost increased contents of N and P.

Survival of phosphate-solubilizing bacteria against DNA damaging agents

Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 2010
Phosphate-solubilizing bacteria (PSBs) were isolated from different plant rhizosphere soils of various agroecological regions of India. These isolates showed synthesis of pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ), production of gluconic acid, and release of phosphorus from insoluble tricalcium phosphate.

Endophytic Bacteria: Role in Phosphate Solubilization

2017
The worldwide need to increase agricultural and horticultural production from a consistently diminishing and degraded land resource has set remarkable strain in light of agro biological systems. The current methodology is to keep up and enhance agricultural and horticultural productivity only by means of the utilization of chemical fertilizers and ...

Growth and survival of phosphate-solubilizing bacteria in calcium alginate

Microbiological Research, 2000
Calcium alginate was superior to conventional charcoal-soil (3:1) carrier for phosphate-solubilizing bacteria (PSB). High populations of Pseudomonas striata (27) and Bacillus polymyxa (H-5) could be maintained in this polymer during storage. Incorporation of charcoal-soil (3:1) adversely affected the initial loading of these organisms in alginate gel ...

An Efficient Method for Qualitative Screening of Phosphate-Solubilizing Bacteria

Current Microbiology, 2001
An efficient protocol was developed for qualitative screening of phosphate-solubilizing bacteria, based upon visual observation. Our results indicate that, by using our formulation containing bromophenol blue, it is possible to quickly screen on a qualitative basis the phosphate-solubilizing bacteria.

Evaluation of pink-pigmented facultative methylotrophic bacteria for phosphate solubilization

Archives of Microbiology, 2011
Thirteen pink-pigmented facultative methylotrophic (PPFM) strains isolated from Adyar and Cooum rivers in Chennai and forest soil samples in Tamil Nadu, India, along with Methylobacterium extorquens, M. organophilum, M. gregans, and M. komagatae were screened for phosphate solubilization in plates. P-solubilization index of the PPFMs grown on NBRIP-BPB

Stress induced phosphate solubilization in bacteria isolated from alkaline soils

FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2000
Phosphate solubilizing bacteria NBRI0603, NBRI2601, NBRI3246 and NBRI4003 were isolated from the rhizosphere of chickpea and alkaline soils. All four strains demonstrated diverse levels of phosphate solubilization activity under in vitro conditions in the presence of various carbon and nitrogen sources. Acid production may have contributed to phosphate

Role of Phosphate-Solubilizing Bacteria in Legume Improvement

2010
Heterogeneously distributed microbial communities belonging to different genera enhance the growth and development of many crop plants including legumes. Among the various microbial populations inhabiting different habitats, the heterotrophic organisms endowed with natural phosphate-solubilizing activity and quite often called as phosphate-solubilizing

Production of Plant Growth Regulators by Rhizosphere Phosphate‐solubilizing Bacteria

Journal of Applied Bacteriology, 1976
Culture supernatant fluids of 50 phosphate‐dissolving bacteria isolated from rhizospheres of crop plants were examined for IAA, gibberellins and cytokinins. These bacteria possessed phytase activity and 27 could dissolve rock phosphate. Twenty bacteria synthesized all 3 types of plant hormones, 43 produced IAA, 29 formed gibberellins and 45 cultures ...
