The Effect of Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria Bacillus thuringiensis LKT25 on Cadmium Accumulation and Physiological Responses in Solanum nigrum L

mycolabadmin

Scientists discovered a beneficial bacterium called Bacillus thuringiensis LKT25 that helps black nightshade plants absorb cadmium from contaminated soil more effectively. When this bacterium is applied to the plant roots, it boosts plant growth and activates the plant’s natural defense systems against heavy metal toxicity. In tests with moderately contaminated soil, the bacterial treatment improved cadmium removal by nearly 50%, making it a promising solution for cleaning up polluted agricultural lands.

This research examines how fungal partnerships with eucalyptus tree roots change as plantations age. Scientists found that two dominant fungal types, Paraglomus and Glomus, shift in abundance depending on the plantation age and soil nutrient levels. The study reveals that proper fertilization timing and understanding fungal communities can help improve plantation management and tree productivity in nutrient-poor soils.

Phosphorus-solubilizing fungi improve growth and P nutrition in sorghum at variable salinity levels

mycolabadmin

Researchers discovered special salt-loving fungi that can help crops absorb more phosphorus even in salty soils. These fungi produce organic acids and other compounds that unlock phosphorus trapped in soil, making it available for plants. When sorghum seeds were treated with these fungi, the plants grew better and absorbed more phosphorus, even under high salinity conditions. This discovery offers a sustainable way to improve crop production in salt-affected soils without relying heavily on chemical fertilizers.
