Phosphorus-solubilizing bacteria isolated from the rhizosphere of wild potato Solanum bulbocastanum enhance growth of modern potato varieties

Bulletin of the National Research Centre, 2022
Background Wild potato species harbor a distinctive rhizosphere microbiome relative to their modern counterparts, thus providing a competitive advantage for acquiring phosphorus (P) in their native habitats.

Screening of rhizosphere and soil bacteria for transformability [PDF]

Environmental Biosafety Research, 2007
Natural transformation is assumed to be the most likely mechanism by which DNA from transgenic plants could be horizontally transferred to bacteria. In order to determine the occurrence of naturally transformable bacteria amongst bulk and rhizosphere soil bacteria, different transformation strategies were employed using either plasmid DNA (IncQ ...

Shifts of the soil microbiome composition induced by plant–plant interactions under increasing cover crop densities and diversities

Scientific Reports, 2023
Interspecific and intraspecific competition and facilitation have been a focus of study in plant-plant interactions, but their influence on plant recruitment of soil microbes is unknown. In this greenhouse microcosm experiment, three cover crops (alfalfa,

Effect of N and P fertilisation and aeration on biodegradation of crude oil in aged hydrocarbon contaminated soils

Plant, Soil and Environment, 2010
We conducted two laboratory experiments to examine the effects of fertilisation and agitation (aeration) on crude oil degradation in two soils with differential nutrient (nitrogen, phosphorus) availability.

Characteristics of rhizosphere and bulk soil microbial community of Chinese cabbage (Brassica campestris) grown in Karst area

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Understanding the rhizosphere soil microbial community and its relationship with the bulk soil microbial community is critical for maintaining soil health and fertility and improving crop yields in Karst regions.

Transparent Soil for Imaging the Rhizosphere

PLoS ONE, 2012
Understanding of soil processes is essential for addressing the global issues of food security, disease transmission and climate change. However, techniques for observing soil biology are lacking. We present a heterogeneous, porous, transparent substrate for in situ 3D imaging of living plants and root-associated microorganisms using particles of the ...

Elucidating the Rhizosphere Associated Bacteria for Environmental Sustainability

Agriculture, 2021
The abundance of nutrient accumulation in rhizosphere soils has placed the rhizosphere as an “epicenter” of bacterial concentrations. Nonetheless, over the years, little attention has been given to bacterial inoculants and soil-like substrates.

Relationship of Bacterial Microdiversity of Rhizosphere and Bulk Soil with Soil Organic Carbon Mineralization in Maize Fields

Shuitu baochi tongbao, 2023
[Objective] The bacterial community microdiversity in the maize rhizosphere and bulk soil was determined to study the relationship between microdiversity and soil organic carbon mineralization through the use of high-resolution taxonomy in order to ...
