Actinomycetes impacts on drought stress in maize (Zea Mays L.)
(North-West University (South Africa), 2018)Drought is a major cause of the present decrease in crop yield and agricultural productivity, accounting for the recent worldwide shortage in food availability. Drought results from the current change in climate conditions. ... -
Determination and comparison of intraspecific variation in the bacterial strains resident in the rhizoplane and rhizosphere of Bambaranut (Vorandzeia subterranean L. thouars)
(North-West University (South Africa), 2017)The bacterial community found in the rhizosphere has been found to have more diversity compared to the rhizoplane due to the interaction of microbes and plants in the soil environment. The intraspecific variations of ... -
Ecological studies of indegenous bambara groundnut rhizosphere bacteria and their metabolic activities
(North-West University (South Africa), 2017)With the rise in world population and decrease in food supply due to global climate change, food security becomes very pertinent. Malnutrition, food scarcity and poverty have consistently affected population growth. This ... -
Genetic polymorphism of prevalent root nodules bacterial strain from Bambara nut
(North-West University (South Africa), 2017)Bambara groundnut is an underutilized crop of good microbial resources in green manure. The knowledge of the true microbial diversity in rhizopheric bacteria of Bambara groundnut is fundamental to effective exploitation ... -
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 ... -
Phylogenetic screening for possible novel antibiotic producing actinomycetes from rhizospheric soil samples collected from Ngaka Modiri Molema District in North West Povince, South Africa
(North-West University (South Africa), 2014)Infectious disease is the number one cause of death in developing countries, accounting for approximately half of all fatalities. Emerging and re-emerging infections are thought to be driven largely by socio-economic, ...
