… These silicate solubilizing bacteria (SSB) raise a huge interest in their use as bio-fertilizer
in agriculture because they solubilize not only Si but also potassium, thus reduce the …

… Therefore, the combined inoculation of MF and silicate‐solubilizing bacteria presents a … the
synergistic application of MF and silicate‐solubilizing bacteria can boost Si absorption in host …

… In the present study, a silicate solubilizing bacterial isolate … soluble silica from insoluble
inorganic (Ca, Al, K and Mg) silicates … IIRR-1 to be used as biofertilizer for rice. Further studies are …

… The current chapter discusses various SSB can solubilize silicates, and thus potentially
be used as biofertilizers. The mechanisms with which SSB solubilize, isolate, and screen …
