| 1 | Antimicrobial and plant growth-promoting activities of bacterial endophytes isolated from Calotropis procera(Ait.)W.T.Aiton显示文摘Bacterial endophytes are beneficial to their hosts as they can fix nitrogen in the soil and make it available to the host.Endophytic bacteria also secrete plant growth-promoting hormones to support their host plants under normal as well as stress conditions.The current study aimed to isolate endophytic bacteria from different parts of Calotropis procera,i.e.,roots,stem and leaves of Calotropis procera(Ait.)W.T.Aiton.Plants were collected from the Lundkhwar,district Mardan.A total of 12 bacterial strains,i.e.,six from roots,three from the stem and three from the leaves were isolated.The strains were screened for their growth-promoting activity in rice plants because rice shows a quick and easy response to the bioactive compounds present in the culture filtrate(CF)of the potent endophytic strains.The rice plants were cultivated in pots containing 30 mL of 0.8%w/v water-agar medium.The pots were placed in a growth chamber,operated at 28±0.3℃ for 14 h(day);and 25±0.3℃ for 10 h(night),at 70%relative-humidity.Among the isolated strains,R1,S1,S3,L1,R5 and R6 showed visible growth promotion in rice plants.The biochemical analysis revealed that the strains were able to produce indole acetic acid(IAA)and flavonoids in higher quantities.Moreover,the strains also produced bioactive compounds that inhibited the growth of Escherichia coli and Aspergillus flavus using the well diffusion method.From the results,it was concluded that these strains can secrete potent compounds that can promote the host plant growth and inhibit the growth of pathogenic microorganisms and,therefore,can be used as bio-fertilizer and bio-control agents. | MUHAMMAD HAMAYUN NASIR KHAN MUHAMMAD NAUMAN KHAN MUHAMMAD QADIR ANWAR HUSSAIN AMJAD IQBAL SUMERA AFZAL KHAN KHUSHNOOD UR REHMAN IN-JUNG LEE | 2021 | BIOCELL2021,45,2: | 0 |
| 2 | Integrating microRNAs and mRNAs reveals the hormones synthesis and signal transduction of maize under different N rates显示文摘The effect of nitrogen(N)fertilizer on the development of maize kernels has yet to be fully explored.MicroRNA-mRNA analyses could help advance our understanding of how kernels respond to N.This study analyzed the morphological,physiological,and transcriptomic changes in maize kernels under different N rates(0,100,200,and 300 kg ha–1).The result showed that increasing N application significantly increased maize grains’fresh and dry weight until N reached 200 kg ha–1.Higher levels of indole-3-acetic acid,cytokinin,gibberellin,and a lower level of ethylene were associated with increased N applications.We obtained 31 differentially expressed genes(DEGs)in hormone synthesis and transduction,and 9 DEGs were regulated by 14 differentially expressed microRNAs(DEMIs)in 26 pairs.The candidate DEGs and DEMIs provide valuable insight for manipulating grain filling under different N rates. | YUE Kai LI Ling-ling XIE Jun-hong Zechariah EFFAH Sumera ANWAR WANG Lin-lin MENG Hao-feng LI Lin-zhi | 2023 | Journal of Integrative Agriculture2023,22,9: | 0 |
| 3 | Promoting the production of salinized cotton field by optimizing water and nitrogen use efficiency under drip irrigation显示文摘Cotton is the main economically important crop in Xinjiang,China,but soil salinization and shortage of water and nutrients have restricted its production.A field experiment was carried out in the salinity-affected arid area of Northwest China from 2018 to 2019 to explore the effects of nitrogen and water regulation on physiological growth,yield,water and nitrogen use efficiencies,and economic benefit of cotton.The salinity levels were 7.7(SL)and 12.5 dS/m(SM).Drip irrigation was used with low,medium and adequate irrigation levels representing 60%,80%and 100%of cotton crop water demand,respectively,and three nitrogen applications,i.e.,206,275 and 343 kg/hm^(2),accounting for 75%,100%and 125%of local N application,respectively were used.The multi-objective optimization based on spatial analysis showed that,at SL salinity,water use efficiency(WUE),nitrogen use efficiency(NUE),economic benefit and yield simultaneously reached more than 85%of their maxima at 379.18-398.32 mm irrigation and 256.69-308.87 kg/hm^(2).At SM salinity,WUE,yield and economic benefit simultaneously reached more than 85%of their maxima when irrigation was 351.24-376.30 mm and nitrogen application was 230.18-289.89 kg/hm^(2).NUE,yield and economic benefit simultaneously reached their maxima at 428.01-337.72 mm irrigation,and nitrogen application range was 222.14-293.93 kg/hm^(2).The plants at SL salinity had 21.58%-46.59%higher WUE rates,14.91%-34.35%higher NUE rates and 20.71%-35.34%higher yields than those at SM salinity.The results are of great importance for the nutrient and water management in cotton field in the arid saline area. | LIN En LIU Hongguang LI Xinxin LI Ling Sumera ANWAR | 2021 | Journal of Arid Land2021,13,7: | 0 |
