Abstract

Research has been conducted on the poly(beta-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB). The effect of PHB on the free-living state and on rhizosphere has been investigated and the characterization of Azospirillum brasilense phbC mutant which is not capable of synthesizing PHB has been carried out and the results are discussed.

3. Promotor of nod gene inducers and nodulation in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) roots inoculated with Azospirillum brasilense Cd

Abstract

Coinoculation of Phaseolus vulgaris with Rhizobium and Azospirillum results in increased susceptibility to Rhizobium infection.It is caused by increase in the number of infectible root hairs and the nod gene induction from the enhanced secretion of flavonoids by the roots. Root hair density of bean seedlings increase significantly by inoculation with Azospirillum brasilense. Root exudates from the inoculated plants increases the level of nod gene inducing, flavonoid compounds.
