The rhizosphere of a plant is home to helpful microorganisms called plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), which play a crucial role in promoting plant growth and development. The significance of PGPR for long-term agricultural viability is out...
Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a Gram-negative, commensal/pathogenic bacteria found in human intestines and the natural environment. Pathogenic E. coli is known as extra-intestinal pathogenic E. coli (ExPEC) or intestinal pathogenic E. coli (InPEC). I...
For years, the Bacillus genus has encompassed a heterogeneous group of individuals whose main common trait was their ability to sporulate in the presence of oxygen. This criterion has been revised, resulting in the reclassification of several species...
Manganese (Mn) is essential for plant growth, as it serves as a cofactor for enzymes involved in photosynthesis, antioxidant synthesis, and defense against pathogens. It also plays a role in nutrient uptake, root growth, and soil microbial communitie...
Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are beneficial bacteria that play a crucial role in sustainable agriculture by enhancing plant growth through various mechanisms. This review examines the contributions of PGPR in improving nutrient availab...
The current healthcare environment is at risk due to the facilitated transmission and empowerment of the ESKAPE pathogens, comprising of Enterococcus faecium, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aerugino...
Phosphorus (P) is one of the most important elements required for crop production. The ideal soil pH for its absorption by plants is about 6.5, but in alkaline and acidic soils, most of the consumed P forms an insoluble complex with calcium, iron, an...
Klebsiella pneumoniae, a Gram-negative pathogen, poses a significant threat as a cause of community- and hospital-acquired infections worldwide. The emergence of multidrug-resistant strains, particularly in nosocomial settings, has further complicate...
Biofilms are accumulations of microorganisms in an extracellular polymeric substance matrix which are composed of polysaccharides, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. Many bacteria can switch between a planktonic form and a biofilm form. The plankto...
Textile dyes pose a major environmental threat due to their toxicity, persistence in water bodies, and resistance to conventional wastewater treatment. To address this, researchers have explored biological and physicochemical degradation methods, foc...
