Sustainable agriculture through the enhancement of microbial biocontrol agents: Current challenges and new perspectives
(MDPI, 2023)
The future of pesticide usage in agriculture is uncertain due to its unsustainability, adverse
environmental impacts, and its association in enhanced phytopathogen resistance. Hence, this
situation urges the development ...
Impact of metagenomic DNA extraction procedures on the identifiable endophytic bacterial diversity in Sorghum bicolor (L. Moench)
(Elsevier, 2015)
Culture-independent studies rely on the quantity and quality of the extracted environmental metagenomic DNA
(mDNA). To fully access the plant tissue microbiome, the extracted plant mDNA should allow optimal PCR
applications ...
Identification of superior cellulase secretion phenotypes in haploids derived from natural Saccharomyces cerevisiae isolates
(Oxford University Press, 2019)
The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is considered an important host for consolidated bioprocessing and the production of
high titres of recombinant cellulases is required for efficient hydrolysis of lignocellulosic substrates ...
Recent advancements in the breeding of sorghum crop: current status and future strategies for marker-assisted breeding
(Frontiers, 2023)
Sorghum is emerging as a model crop for functional genetics and genomics of tropical grasses with abundant uses, including food, feed, and fuel, among others. It is currently the fifth most significant primary cereal crop. ...
Seed priming with MeJa prevents salt-induced growth inhibition and oxidative damage in sorghum bicolor by inducing the expression of jasmonic acid biosynthesis genes
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023)
Salinity is one of the major detrimental abiotic stresses at the forefront of deterring crop productivity globally. Although the exogenous application of phytohormones has formerly proven efficacious to plants, their effect ...
