There are several industrial processes in which heavy metals used, including but not limited to chrome plating and tanning. Amongst the most toxic human health arsenic, cadmium, chromium, lead, copper, nickel, mercury. The aforementioned possess ability cause contamination upon their release into environment. Humans aquatic terrestrial animals at risk from water soil. Heavy metal toxicity has potential result complications, such as renal hepatic impairment, dermatological afflictions, cognitive lethargy, potentially oncogenic manifestations. removal of wastewater soil can be accomplished using a variety conventional methods, membrane filtration, reverse osmosis, chemical reduction, adsorption. These methods have disadvantages, generating an abundance secondary pollutants, entail significantly higher costs comparison biological methods. Conversely, eco-friendly techniques based on microbes numerous advantages. This review provides comprehensive overview that remove ions, both metabolically dependent independent. Additionally, we also focused source these metals. study is expected particularly beneficial for development treatment systems water.

Understanding the dynamic interactions of root-knot nematodes and their host: role of plant growth promoting bacteria and abiotic factors

Frontiers in Plant Science, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 15

Опубликована: Апрель 30, 2024

Root-knot nematodes ( Meloidogyne spp., RKN) are among the most destructive endoparasitic worldwide, often leading to a reduction of crop growth and yield. Insights into dynamics host-RKN interactions, especially in varied biotic abiotic environments, could be pivotal devising novel RKN mitigation measures. Plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) involves different plant growth-enhancing activities such as biofertilization, pathogen suppression, induction systemic resistance. We summarized up-to-date knowledge on role PGPB factors soil pH, texture, structure, moisture, etc. modulating RKN-host interactions. directly or indirectly affected by PGPB, interplay host responses infection. highlighted tripartite (host-RKN-PGPB) phenomenon with respect (i) direct indirect effect interactions; (ii) influence selection enrichment rhizosphere; (iii) how microbes enhance parasitism; (iv) RKN-PGPB (v) Furthermore, we discussed agricultural practices alter Finally, emphasized importance incorporating interactions integrated management strategies.

Many recent studies have highlighted the importance of plant growth-promoting (rhizo)bacteria (PGPR) in supporting plant’s development, particularly under biotic and abiotic stress. Most focus on traits selected strains latter’s effect biomass, root architecture, leaf area, specific metabolite accumulation. Regarding energy balance, growth is outcome an input (photosynthesis) several outputs (i.e., respiration, exudation, shedding, herbivory), frequently neglected classical PGPR-plant interaction. Here, we discuss primary evidence underlying modifications triggered by PGPR their metabolites ecophysiology. We propose to detect PGPR-induced variations photosynthetic activity using gas exchange recommend setting up correct timing for monitoring responses according objectives experiment. This research identifies challenges tries provide future directions scientists working interactions exploit potential microorganisms’ application improving value.

Bacillus Spizizenii FMH45-based biofertilizer enhances growth and halotolerance of cherry tomato plants under hydroponic cultivation systems

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 8

Опубликована: Янв. 7, 2025

Introduction Hydroponic cultivation systems using desalinated groundwater may play pivotal role in reducing freshwater consumption for irrigation. However, reliance on desalination remains unsustainable due to its high cost, energy demand, and the serious environmental impacts of brine byproducts. Producing a biofertilizer that enables irrigation hydroponics by enhancing plant halotolerance resistance salt stress offers promising solution address scarcity low soil quality arid semi-arid regions, such as Arabian Gulf. Methods This study investigates potential Bacillus spizizenii FMH45 field experiment enhance tomato production under greenhouse directly without desalination. Results discussion demonstrated FMH45-based (HB45) significantly improved physiological parameters conditions. These improvements included notable increase shoot elongation (>13%), enhanced SPAD index values (>8%), significant rises flower fruit counts (≃ 11% 22%, respectively). B. HB45 showed bacterial densities over 100-fold various organs saline prevent infiltration into internal tissues. Furthermore, HB45-treatment oxidative response evidenced stable catalase activity, an approximately 50% reduction lipid peroxidation markers malondialdehyde (MDA), 35% decrease reactive oxygen species (ROS), including hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O ). findings demonstrate holds development effective biofertilizers capable mitigating while boosting crop productivity. approach sustainable alternative desalination-dependent hydroponics, particularly Qatar.

The application of plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) is vital for sustainable agriculture with continuous world population growth and an increase in soil salinity. Salinity one the severe abiotic stresses which lessens productivity agricultural lands. Plant are key players solving this problem can mitigate salinity stress. highest reported halotolerant belonged to Firmicutes (approximately 50%), Proteobacteria (40%), Actinobacteria (10%), respectively. most dominant genera Bacillus Pseudomonas . Currently, identification new special beneficial properties increasingly needed. Moreover, effective use agriculture, unknown molecular aspects their function interaction plants must be defined. Omics meta-omics studies unreveal these genes pathways. However, more accurate omics need a detailed understanding so far known mechanisms stress protection by bacteria. In review, basis mitigation presented, identified genomes 20 assessed, prevalence involved highlighted. related synthesis indole acetic acid (IAA) (70%), siderophores (60%), osmoprotectants (80%), chaperons 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) deaminase (50%), antioxidants phosphate solubilization ion homeostasis (80%) were common detected evaluated stress-alleviating prevalent applied as candidates designing markers screening

Effect of Mineral Fertilization and Microbial Inoculation on Cabbage Yield and Nutrition: A Field Experiment

Agronomy, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 14(1), С. 210 - 210

Опубликована: Янв. 18, 2024

Cabbage serves as an important food and nutrition source for numerous communities in the world, yet its production requires substantial quantities of chemical fertilizers. In this study, we assessed impact both increasing nitrogen phosphorus mineral (NP) fertilization, along with application plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) on N P uptake, quality, yield cabbage. To end, conducted two consecutive field experiments following a randomized block design four replicates factors: NP doses PGPB inoculation. inoculation used bacterial consortium comprising Azospirillum brasilense D7, Herbaspirillum sp. AP21, Rhizobium leguminosarum T88. Our results showed significant influence biofertilization fertilization across crop cycles; however, no interaction between these factors was observed. first cycle, 75% (equivalent to 93.6 kg ha−1 82.1 P) positively impacted uptake. Also, microbial significantly influenced yield, resulting 9-ton increase per hectare due biofertilization. second observed positive effect cabbage nutritional quality. The relative agronomic effectiveness (RAE) index that combining biological 50% respectively, increased by 66% 48% compared commercial dosage without PGPB. Collectively, our demonstrated within experimental setup, can be reduced any detrimental yield. Moreover, could enhance quality conditions.
