The world's food demand is increasing rapidly due to fast population growth that has posed
a challenge to meeting the requirements of nutritionally balanced diets. Pulses could play a …

Seven Bacillus spp. isolated from the marine water and the rhizosphere of the medicinal
plant Coscinium fenestratum were studied to produce plant growth promotion (PGP) traits …

A contemporary approach to bacterially mediated zinc (Zn) biofortification offers a new
dimension in the crop improvement program with better Zn uptake in plants to curb Zn …

The experimental study was contrived to characterize two zinc-solubilizing bacteria (ZSB),
namely BMRR126 and BMAR64, and their role in zinc (Zn) biofortification of rice. These …

Modern agriculture pays attention to improving agricultural production by producing zinc-
enriched crops through zinc-solubilizing bacteria to strengthen the bioeconomy. Zinc …

Endophytic fungi and bacteria were isolated from finger millet and their effects on finger
millet growth parameters and zinc and NPK contents in grains were studied. Out of 70 fungal …

Zinc-solubilizing rhizobacteria can convert insoluble zinc to an accessible form and increase
Zn bioavailability in soil, which help mitigate Zn deficiency in crops. In this work, 121 …

Enrichment of staple food with zinc (Zn) along with solubilizing bacteria is a sustainable and
practical approach to overcome Zn malnutrition in human beings by improving plant …
