An intact method for measuring immediately linear rates of acetylene reduction was used to investigate the relationship between temperature, pH, O(2) concentration, and light intensity with the rate of root-associated nitrogenase activity in rice (Oryza sativa L.). Nitrogenase activity varied over a
The relationship between the rates of nitrogenase, nitrate reductase, and glutamine synthetase activities, and plant ontogeny in rice (Oryza sativa L.), cultivar ;M9', grown in salt marsh sediment with and without nitrate treatment was studied. In both treatments, nitrogenase activity measured as
The time course profiles of C(2)H(2) reduction by intact Scirpus olneyi (bulrush), Oryza sativa (rice) and Spartina alterniflora (cordgrass) with roots in atmospheres of N(2) and 30-day-old Glycine max (soybean) in air were all immediately linear. This is the first report of immediately linear rates
Three yellow-pigmented strains associated with rice plants were characterized by using a polyphasic approach. The nitrogen-fixing abilities of these strains were confirmed by acetylene reduction assay and nifH gene detection. The three strains were found to be very closely related, with 99.9 % 16S
A novel, plant growth-promoting bacterium Delftia tsuruhatensis, strain HR4, was isolated from the rhizoplane of rice (Oryza sativa L., cv. Yueguang) in North China. In vitro antagonistic assay showed this strain could suppress the growth of various plant pathogens effectively, especially the three
Nitrogen-fixing bacteria were isolated from the stems of wild and cultivated rice on a modified Rennie medium. Based on 16S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) sequences, the diazotrophic isolates were phylogenetically close to four genera: Herbaspirillum, Ideonella, Enterobacter, and Azospirillum. Phenotypic
CONCLUSIONS
The diversity of endophytic and epiphytic diazotrophs in different parts of rice plants has specificity to the niche (i.e. leaf, stem and root) of different genotypes and nutrient availability of the organ. Inoculation of the indigenous, polyvalent diazotrophs can facilitate and sustain
MYB transcription factors (TFs) make up one of the most important TF families in plants. These proteins play crucial roles in processes related to development, metabolism, and stimulus-response; however, very few studies have been reported for the characterization of MYB TFs from banana. The current
