Isolation and Analysis of Microbial Communities in Soil, Rhizosphere, and Roots in Perennial Grass Experiments

Excavation of plant roots from the field as well as processing of samples into endosphere, rhizosphere, and soil are described in detail, including DNA extraction and data analysis methods. This paper is designed to enable other laboratories to use these techniques for the study of soil, endosphere, and rhizosphere...

Application of a Bacterial Mixture as a Biofertilizer to Enhance Plant Growth

Take an inoculum mixture of phosphate-solubilizing bacteria or PSB and purple non-sulfur bacteria or PNSB.Spray the mixture onto the soil mixed with fertilizer and cow dung manure.Sow the seed and cover it with the soil.Allow the plant to grow.The bacteria localize near the root in a zone called the rhizosphere.PSB converts insoluble soil phosphates into soluble forms.Meanwhile, PNSB fixes nitrogen by converting atmospheric nitrogen gas into ammonia.The plant absorbs the soluble phosphates and...
