Characterization of Rhizobacteria from Field Grown Genetically Modified (GM) and Non–GM Maizes
(SciELO, 2014)This study was done to examine the rhizobacteria from field grown Genetically Modified (GM) maize and its non-GM counterpart. Rhizospheric soil samples were collected at 30 days after sowing (DAS) and at post-harvest from ... -
Does nature make provision for backups in the modification of bacterial community structures?
(Taylor & Francis, 2014)Self-balancing is an inherent character in nature in response to community structure modification pressure and modern biotechnology has revolutionized the way such detections are made. Presented here is an overview of the ... -
Impact of Field-Grown Genetically Modified Maize on Native Rhizobacteria
(2013)Plant-root interaction occurs in the rhizosphere, a region referred to as a biologically active zone of soil where microorganisms and plant roots interact. This study examined the impact of genetically modified (GM) maize ... -
Isolation and Characterization of Rhizosphere Bacterial Community from cultivated plants in Mahikeng, North-West Province, South Africa
(North-West University, 2014)The rhizosphere is characterized by the presence of high microbial activities which are influenced by plant root exudates. This study examined bacterial diversity and physiological functions plants rhizosphere using both ... -
Metagenomic analysis of agricultural soils under organic and inorganic fertilization
(North-West University (South Africa), 2021)Soil fertilization is an age-old agricultural practice aimed at increasing soil nutrition and soil health. Recently, agriculturists have come to the realization that inorganic fertilizer application over time could result ...
