Microorganisms play an enormously important role in plant disease control. Research on
biological control of plant pathogens has received major impetus and attracted many …

Strong efforts have been made to understand the bacterial communities in potato plants and
the rhizosphere. Research has focused on the effect of the environment and plant genotype …

The compatibility of strains is crucial for formulating bioinoculants that promote plant growth.
We herein assessed the compatibility of four potential bioinoculants isolated from potato …

The bacterial endophytic communities of four plants growing abundantly in soils highly
contaminated by hydrocarbons were analyzed through culturable and culture-independent …

Clone libraries of bacterial 16S rRNA genes (a total of 1,980 clones) were constructed from
the leaf blades, petioles, taproots, and lateral roots of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) grown …

Abstract Background The native potatoes (Solanum tuberosum subsp. tuberosum L.) grown
in Chile (Chiloé) represent a new, unexplored source of endophytes to find potential …

Eight genotypes of potato plants with different resistance levels against common scab were
grown in a field infested with Streptomyces turgidiscabies. DNA was extracted from the roots …

Soil microorganisms play a key role in soil physical structure. Soil microbial community
structure and functions are in turn affected by soil aggregation or degradation. The …

Aim:“Tocosh” is a potato that has undergone a process of hydraulic oxidation that enhances
its antimicrobial properties so that this natural resource can be used in medical sciences …

The impact of a urea-formaldehyde (UF) fertilizer on bacterial diversity in onion bulbs and
main roots of sugar beet were examined using a 16S rRNA gene clone library. The UF …
