Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Some Environmental Stresses on Bio Indicators and Population Densities of Glomus mossae Fungi Associated with Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) CropAli Jabbar Abdulsada, Sadeq J.H. Dwenee, Naeem Saeed Dheyab et al.Field experiment was conducted to determine the effect of soil salinity and Fusariume germanium on population of Glomus mossae Fungi within root of wheat as manifested by the fungal spore’s number, density infection and the percentage of infected root by Glomus mossae. The results didn’t show effect the environmental stresses on comparability reproductive for Glomus mossae fungi associated with wheat … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 20 Mar 2020 · 7,124 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProduction and Characterization of Hydrocarbon Degrading Peroxidase from Rhizopus and Saccharomyces SpeciesFerdinand U. Paschaline, Onyeocha O. Ignatius, Ezeji E. Uchechukwu et al.The production, characterization and partial purification of hydrocarbon degrading peroxidase from di-culture of Rhizopus and Saccharomyces species was assessed. The fungi were isolated from hydrocarbon polluted soil and identified using standard microbiological and biochemical techniques. Fermentation was carried out for enzyme production and the extracellular extract was precipitated with 50% ammonium sulphate salts and further purified by gel filtrationusing sephadex … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 7 Dec 2019 · 7,402 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhytoremedial Potential of Tagetes Erecta Under Mycorrhizal Inoculation in Heavy Metal Polluted SoilI.O. Aina, F.L. Amusa, A.D. Olasupo et al.Investigation of the growth of Tagetes erecta under different levels of contamination of Copper (Cu) and Lead (Pb) in the soil and effects of mycorrhizal species (Glomus mosseae) on Cu and Pb to identify hyperaccumulator plants in tropical environment that could be used in remediation of heavy metal from contaminated soils. It was a greenhouse experiment consisted of factorial combination … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 5 · 28 Oct 2019 · 7,475 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Cocoa Pod Husk Compost Produced Using Rot Fungi on the Growth of Cocoa SeedlingsLaode Asrul, Iradhatullah Rahim, Tutik Kuswinanti et al.Rot fungi have the ability to decompose organic materials into simple compounds or elements as nutrients for plants. In the process, rot fungi produce secondary metabolites and absorb phosphate from their substrates so that the phosphate become available to plants. The purpose of this study was to identify the species of rot fungi isolated from decaying cocoa stems and to … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 3 Feb 2018 · 8,502 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy on the Distribution of Endomycorrhizal Fungi in Some Species Root-Plants in BaliMeitini Wahyuni Proborini, Deny Suhernawan YusupPlants growing on poor soils are commonly associated with endomycorrhizal fungi as a mutualism symbiotic. The fungus takes a role on enhancement of the uptake of soil mineral nutrients particularly phosphorus, thereby enhancing host plant vigor. Despite some of Bali areas particularly in Karangasem and Buleleng have poor soil condition, less study on the endomycorrizhal fungi have been undertaken. The … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 20 Dec 2017 · 7,496 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Keratinolytic Activity Succeeds by Keratinophilic Fungi in Jaipur, IndiaVishnu Sharma, Anima Sharma, Ruchi SethEarth has innate background for fungi that cover individual kingdom since evolution. The keratinophilic fungi are allied moulds that produce the keratinase enzyme to degrade the keratinous materials in or on the soil. Keratinous materials are insoluble and resistant to degradation by common proteinase enzymes. It is important to study the microorganism producers of such enzymes for use in the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 7 · 12 Apr 2017 · 7,570 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFUNGAL LEACHING OF IRON ORE: ISOLATION, CHARACTERIZATION AND BIOLEACHING STUDIES OF PENICILLIUM VERRUCULOSUMNeha Chaudhary, Trina Banerjee, Neha Ibrahim, G. SibiPyrometallurgical and hydrometallurgical technologies for recovery of metals from low grade ores require high energy and capital costs. Use of microorganisms in leaching of mineral ores is gaining importance due to the implementation of stricter environmental rules. Microbes convert metal compounds into their water soluble forms and are biocatalysts of leaching processes. This study was performed to isolate and characterize … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 25 Sep 2014 · 8,001 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractASSESSING SOIL RESPIRATION AS AN INDICATOR OF SOIL MICROBIAL ACTIVITY IN RECLAIMED METAL CONTAMINATED LANDSKassandre Goupil, Kabwe NkongoloMining, roasting as well as smelting of these elements have caused sulphur dioxide fumigations and metal particulate depositions which have led to various detrimental effects on the overall environmental quality of the Greater Sudbury region. Soil amendment and revegetation within the Greater Sudbury Region were initiated to restore the damage land. Several methods have been used to assess the progress … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 11 Jul 2014 · 8,104 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractKinetics of Biological Treatment of Low Level Pesticide WastewaterAbdel E. Ghaly, Deepika DavePesticides are chemical substances intended to protect food crops and livestock from pests in order to pro-mote agricultural productivity and protect public health. Contamination of soil, air and water and threat to human and animal health are the major constraints in the use of pesticides. Treatment of pesticide contaminated water is, therefore, paramount. Biological treatment provides the most economical option … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 4 Jul 2012 · 8,168 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrobial Activities as Affected by Peat Dryness and AmeliorantEdi Husen, Fahmuddin AgusProblem statement: Acceleration of microbial activities and thus of CO2 emission in drained peat soils used for agriculture, is of the main environmental concern. The objectives of this study were to (i) examine microbial activities in peat samples treated with different levels of water contents and ameliorants and (ii) evaluate the relative contribution of microbial groups to peat respiration. Approach: … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 29 Sep 2011 · 7,548 accessesView PDFCite
