Analysis of Phosphate Solubilizing Bacteria in Soil

Analysis of inorganic phosphate Solubilizing Bacteria in Soil1. INTRODUCTIONCereals are the worlds major source of food for human comestible and rice (Oryza sativa L.) is one of the predominant cereal function and represent staple diet for more than two fifth of the world population. To feed the ever change magnitude human population, the worlds yearly rice manufacturing to be bound by an obligation act out of 560 million tonnes to 760 million tonnes by 2020. The forthcoming add in rice performance has to come from the same or even reduced land area and the productivity yield (per ha) must be greatly enhanced by providing additional nutrient input and through effective control of phytopathogens. Blast disease of rice caused by Pyricularia oryzae is one of the just about destructive fungal diseases of rice causing loss up to 90% and has a ubiquitous occurrence in al to the highest degree in all the rice exploitation countries (Mehrothra, 1980).Phosphorus has been called th e key of life because it is formly involved in most of the life processes. Next to nitrogen it is invariably classified as one of the macronutrients and it is a key element in frequency of use as fertilizer. It serves as a primary energy source for microbial oxidation. It is a constituent center of attention in life processes. Soil cannot give high yields if it is wanting(predicate) in phosphate.Different mechanisms have been suggested for the solubilization of in total phosphorus by phosphate solubilize. It is usually legitimate that the important mechanism of mineral phosphate solubilization is the movement of organic acids the combination of various thing into one whole by soil microorganisms (Halder et al., 1990). Manufacturing of organic acids results in acidification of the microbial cell and its lying on the outskrits.Resultant, inorganic phosphate may be released from a mineral phosphate by proton addition for Calcium ion (Goldstein, 1994). The production of organic acid s by PSB has been deep notifified. Among them, gluconic acid seems to be the most repeated occurance agent of mineral phosphate solubilization.Being an in specified microorganism is cognise to be involved in the solubilization of insoluble phosphates (Alexander, 1977). These phosphate-solubilizing microorganisms render insoluble phosphate into soluble group formed completely the series of acidification and chelation of some reactions. This process not only compensates for higher cost of manufacturing fertilizers in industry but also mobilizes the fertilizers added to soil (Rodriguez and Reynaldo, 1999). Therefore, many researchers have tried to increase the plant-available phosphate fraction by means of inorganic phosphate solubilizing microorganisms (PSMs) such as Achromobacter sp, Agrobacterium sp, Alcaligens sp, atomic number 5 cereus, B. polymyxa, B. megaterium, B. subtilis, Pseudomonas striata and Xanthomonas sp and Fungi like Aspergillus niger, A. flavus, A. fumigatus, Peni cillium sp. and Rhizopus sp.Several mechanisms of plant glitch interaction may equatingticipate in the association and affect plant harvest-festival, including IAA, Siderophore production and biocontrol against Pyricularia oryzae. Thus, the Plant Growth Promoting Rhizo bacterium (PGPR) affect the plant growth through direct promotion by producing plant growth promoting substances and through indirect promotion by acting against plant pathogenic microorganisms (Kloepper et al., 1989).Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are unembellished living, soil borne bacteria, which enhance the growth of the plant either directly or indirectly (Kloepper et al., 1980 Glick and Ibid, 1995). The direct mechanisms involve nitrogen fixation, phosphorus solubilization, HCN production, manufacturing of phytohormones such as auxins, cytokinins and gibberellins, and minatory of ethylene concentration (Glick and Ibid, 1995 Glick et al., 1999). Bacteria belonging to the genera Azospirillum, Pseudomonas, Xanthomonas, and Rhizobium as well as Alcaligenes faecalis, Enterobacter cloacae, Acetobacter diazotrophicus and Bradyrhizobium japonicum have been shown to that which is produced auxins which help in inducing plant growth increase (Patten and Glick, 2002).There are many reports on plant growth promotion and yield enhancement by plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) (Lugtenberg et al., 2001). The mechanisms of plant growth increase the promotion by PGPR include the ability to produce phytohormones, N2 fixation, antagonism against phytopathogens and solubilization of insoluble phosphates (Lugtenberg and Kamilova, 2009). It was also suggested that the PGPR can also prevent the deleterious make of stresses from the environment (Paul and Nair, 2008). converting is a biotechnological process by which opposite microbial communities convert organic wastes into a stabilized form. During the process, temperatures arise because of the heat released due to biological acti vity. These temperatures are responsible for pathogen inactivation. converting is an aerobic process that requires O2, optimal moisture and enough free air space and CN ratio at bottom certain limits. The intervention by composting leads to the development of microbial populations, which causes numerous physicochemical changes within mix. These changes could influence the metal distribution through release of heavy metals during organic matter mineralization or the metal solubilization by the decrease of pH, metal biosorption by the microbial biomass or metal complexation with the newly formed humic substances or other factors (Rahul Kumar et al., 2010).One of the most effective means of recycling any organic wastes for agricultural use is by means of composting, an accepted practice in India and elsewhere. In many cases in India, it is valuable to add nutrients to compost to increase its fertilizer value. Although, sugar industry wastes are relatively high in nitrogen, calcium, magnesium and potassium, they are generally deficient in phosphorus, iron and zinc when compared to fertilizers commonly used in India. Further, the possibility of enriching organic wastes with micronutrients like Fe and Zn, which have become critical in crop production, have been studied and their effectiveness is increase appreciably through combined application of organics with FeSO4 and ZnSO4 in addition to N, P, K fertilizers (Deepa Devi, 1992 Sennimalai, 1994). Therefore, it is appropriate to develop composting systems that are candid of converting these agroindustrial wastes into valuable organic fertilizers.Among the microbes, bacteria are the most important one for decomposing waste. Bacteria use press mud for their metabolism and finally they produce some simple and useful compounds from them which are important for soil health, plant growth and over all to keep well balance of natural ecosystem (Zaved et al., 2008). Moreover, efficiency of bacterial in bioconversion or organic compounds is well documented (Petre et al., 1999 Suhaimi et al., 2012). Unfortunately, knowledge on physico-chemical and microbial diversity of bacteria on bioconversion of sugarcane press mud is limited. Therefore, this study was conducted to manage the chemical and biological changes during composting of sugarcane press mud with cattle manure in order to get high quality stabilized product within the goal of shortening the stabilization time.The pressmud biocompost contains appreciable amount of plant nutrients viz., organic carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium and magnesium along with traces of micronutrients viz., Zn, Fe, Cu and Mn (Banulekha, 2007). The beneficial effect of the organic matter for enhancing the soil fertility and thereby improving the crop productivity is well established (Laird et al., 2001).Objectives of the present studyTo collect the soil samples from ten different locations in Cuddalore district, Tamil Nadu, India.To isolate and identif y the Phosphate solubilizing bacteria (Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus megaterium, Enterobacter asburiae) from collected soil samples.To screen the efficacious Phosphate solubilizing bacterial isolates based on production of plant growth promoting substances.Composting of sugar mill waste (pressmud) by Phosphobacterial isolates and analysis of nutrient status of compost mixtures.To study the combined effect of efficient phosphobacterial isolates and compost mixture for the growth and yield of Paddy BPT-5804(Oryza sativa L.)Cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin become or make less indicate in the present study during the bacterial crime syndicate based composting process.
