Purple nonsulfur bacteria (PNSB) can potentially improve rice growth, grain yield and soil
fertility in acid sulfate soils (ASS) by acting as biofertilizers and bioremediators. Six strains of …

This study aimed to investigate the potential of Rhodopseudomonas palustris C1 and
Rubrivivax benzoatilyticus C31 to ameliorate As toxicity and to reduce As uptake in rice …

The present study aimed to identify the abilities of the δ-aminolevulinic acid (ala) producing
purple non-sulfur bacteria (PNSB), Luteovulum sphaeroides W22 and W47, to reduce the …

Anthropogenic activities causing climate change and other environmental effects are
lowering crop yield by deteriorating the growing environment for crops. Rice, a globally …

In rice-shrimp farming systems, the high level of sodium that shrimps are able to grow in may
create an adverse environment for rice. This research aimed to isolate purple nonsulfur …

Rhodopseudomonas palustris is a Gram-negative, purple non-sulfur bacterium (PNSB),
which can alleviate heavy metal toxicity, enhance plant growth, and exert biocontrol …

Soil salinity severely affects plant growth and development and imparts inevitable losses to
crop productivity. Increasing the concentration of salts in the vicinity of plant roots has severe …

Alginate beads are a promising carrier for biofertilizer delivery, but still possess drawbacks
of low mechanical strength and bead shrinkage that result in poor appearance and …

Paddy fields are considered as one of the most important sources of anthropogenic methane
(CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions. While several technical options have been …

Rice cultivation has long been known as one of the dominant anthropogenic contributors to
methane (CH4) emissions, yet there is still uncertainty when estimating its emissions at the …
