pseudomonas lurida sp. nov., a fluorescent species associated with the phyllosphere of grasses. | the taxonomic position of a group of fluorescent pseudomonad strains isolated from the phyllosphere of grasses was investigated through a polyphasic approach. riboprinting analysis revealed highly similar patterns for the investigated strains which supported, together with the agreement of many phenotypic characteristics, their affiliation to the same species. a comparison of 16s rrna gene sequences of strain p 513/18(t), a representative strain from the grass isolates, revealed that it was affi ... | 2007 | 17473245 |
isolation, molecular characterization and growth-promotion activities of a cold tolerant bacterium pseudomonas sp. nars9 (mtcc9002) from the indian himalayas. | a bacterium that grows and expresses plant growth promotion traits at 4 degrees c was isolated from the rhizospheric soil of amaranth, cultivated at a high altitude location in the north western indian himalayas. the isolate was gram negative and the cells appeared as rods (2.91 x 0.71 microm in size). it grew at temperatures ranging from 4 to 30 degrees c, with a growth optimum at 28 degrees c. it exhibited tolerance to a wide ph range (5-10; optimum 8.0) and salt concentrations up to 6% (wt/vo ... | 2009 | 19915739 |
tracking the flow of bacterially derived (13) c and (15) n through soil faunal feeding channels. | the soil food web has been referred to as a 'black box', a 'poor man's tropical rainforest' and an 'enigma', due to its opacity, diversity and the limited insight into feeding specificity. here we investigate the flow of c and n through the soil food web as a way to gain understanding of the feeding interactions occurring. a bacterium, pseudomonas lurida, was introduced to soil cores from two different habitats, a grassland and a woodland with the same soil type, enriched to 99 atom% in (13) c a ... | 2011 | 21594923 |
