Abstract

Endophytic bacteria were isolated from Withania somnifera (L.) Dunal and their potentials were explored through the in vitro plant regeneration techniques. Initially, indole acetic acid (IAA), phosphate solubilization and siderophore producing isolates were screened out. These isolates were identified using molecular tools like 16s rRNA gene sequences namely Bacillus pumilus AS02, Sphingobacterium thalpophilum AS34, Pseudomonas aeruginosa AS36, Agrobacterium tumefaciens AS38 and Enterobacter aerogenes AS75. Further, the regeneration efficacy of IAA producing endophytic bacteria has been analysed on an endangered plant—Exacum travancoricum Bedd. The leaf and inter-node explants of E. travancoricum with or without bacterial infection were tested on Murashige and Skoog’s (MS) medium encompassing 6-benzyladenine (BA; 2.0 mg L− 1) and l-tryptophan (0.2%; w/v). Somatic embryo induction was observed on both explants. The leaf explants infected with S. thalpophilum AS34, P. aeruginosa AS36 and E. aerogenes AS75 exhibited highest percentage of somatic embryo induction (93.3%) compared with the inter-node explants (86.6%). The explants without bacterial infection (control) and the presence of exogenous IAA exhibited lower level of response (88.8%, leaf and 75.5%, inter-node). Histological analysis revealed the appearance of globular embryogenic masses on epidermal, sub-epidermal regions of both explants. The development of torpedo, cotyledon stage and protoderm formation without the vascular connection from explants confirmed direct somatic embryogenesis. This was confirmed with scanning electron microscopy. Sub-culturing of cotyledon somatic embryos in MS liquid medium without growth regulators was performed to obtain well developed shoots with roots.

Abstract

Nanomaterials monitor leading agricultural and environmental controlling activities especially due to its minuscule dimension. Additionally, several potential applications including a reduction in the accumulation of agricultural waste and green synthesis of nanoparticle using biological agents allow nanotechnology tools to substantially revolutionize the world. Agrowastes are ecofriendly to synthesize the typical nanostructures with precise chemical composition, morphology and size. The use of agricultural waste not only minimizes the synthesis cost but also reduces the hazardous chemicals from the environment and thus stimulates the green synthesis. Biosynthesis of various nanomaterials from agrowastes and microbes including fungi, viruses, bacteria and microalgae are being progressively explored to accomplish pollution mitigation and resource recycling objectives. This chapter highlights the synthesis mechanism of nanomaterials from microbes and agricultural wastes and their potential applications in various fields.

Abstract

Strains' improvement technology plays an essential role in enhancing the quality of industrial strains. Several traditional methods and modern techniques have been used to further improve strain engineering programs. The advances stated in strain engineering and the increasing demand for microbial metabolites leads to the invention of the genome shuffling technique, which ensures a specific phenotype improvement through inducing mutation and recursive protoplast fusion. In such technique, the selection of multi-parental strains with distinct phenotypic traits is crucial. In addition, as this evolutionary strain improvement technique involves combinative approaches, it does not require any gene sequence data for genome alteration and, therefore, strains developed by this elite technique will not be considered as genetically modified organisms. In this review, the different stages involved in the genome shuffling technique and its wide applications in various phenotype improvements will be addressed. Taken together, data discussed here highlight that the use of genome shuffling for strain improvement will be a plus for solving complex phenotypic traits and in promoting the rapid development of other industrially important strains.

Abstract

Even though pesticides have greatly contributed to boosting agricultural productivity and farmer income over the years, there have been concerns about the safety of some of these pest control products. Besides, there has been a growing demand for good quality and safe food in the recent past – as reflected in the stringent regulations on pesticide residue levels in produce. Biopesticides in comparison with conventional synthetic chemical pesticides are usually less toxic, generally affect only the target pest and closely related organisms, are often effective in relatively small quantities and decompose faster, resulting in lower exposure. Consequently, over the last few years, biopesticides have attracted global attention as a safer pest control strategy for incorporation into Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programmes. Besides, in the last decade, adoption of IPM programmes has significantly enhanced pest management practices and, in some cases, reduced pesticide use, consequently reducing the rise in demand for synthetic chemical pesticides. Also, the development of new synthetic chemical pesticides has declined considerably in the recent past, as regulations have become tighter, with products being withdrawn from the market, resulting in a more limited choice of chemical solutions such that biopesticides have become a more feasible option. Many countries have also increasingly lowered chemical Maximum Residue Levels for agricultural imports which have made it increasingly necessary to explore pest control options which would ensure reduced reliance on the use of synthetic chemical pesticides. In this paper, avenues of addressing challenges to biopesticide research and development are evaluated by seeking the inputs of a wide range of stakeholders, building on a recent international workshop with biopesticides practitioners from across the globe. Prospects for biopesticide application are detailed using a case study on the fall armyworm (Spodoptera frugiperda) in Africa.

Abstract

It is well known that plant–microbe interaction can be affected by global climate change. Many abiotic and biotic factors have great influence on the generation and maintenance of microbial diversity in the rhizosphere. On the other hand, the interaction between plants and beneficial plant microbe aids plants to develop resistance against biotic or abiotic stresses and raise crop yield. In this chapter, we focus on plant natural systems; artificial systems (microbial-mediated transformation of plants); plant–microbes interaction and plant immune system; plant–microbe interaction; and genomics and genome-scale modelling at metabolic level.

Abstract

A challenging task for the 21st century is the cleaning up environmental contaminants using ecofriendly, economical, adoptable, and sustainable technologies. Organophosphorus (OP) compounds are mostly disseminated as agricultural pesticides and plasticizers which has led to environmental accumulation, water and soil toxicity, and they are involved in many poisoning cases every year around the globe. Therefore OP residues are in top of the list for environmental bioremediation. Thus an effective and safe detoxicant therapy is needed. In the bioremediation method, several cyanobacteria, fungi, bacteria, and their enzymes with the potential to degrade OP compounds use OP as an energy source; they have been isolated and efficaciously used for environmental bioremediation in different parts of globe. Nanotechnology is a rapidly growing field of study due to its efficient mechanisms, cost-effectiveness, and environment-friendly approach in comparison to other existing treatments for the bioremediation of environmental contaminants. It makes use of several nanomaterials for the removal of pollutants from soil and groundwater through adsorption, photocatalysis, and encapsulation mode of actions.

Abstract

Environment contamination because of heavy metals is not only restricted to the aquatic ecosystem, even soil is also increasingly getting contaminated. In consideration with toxic metals sources for soil contamination; the most significant anthropogenic sources include effluents from industrial activities and sewage from domestic and industrial sources. In recent days several strategies are being opted to control soil contamination include physical, chemical, microbial, and phytoremediation. Heavy metals that contaminate soil include lead, arsenic, mercury, and chromium. To overcome this, recently researchers have developed advanced and efficient nanobubble technology, which means small bubbles with diameter less than 1 μm, that is, in the nanoscale. Several methods have been optimized for the generation of nanobubbles such as cavitation, hydrodynamic, acoustic, sonication, and agitation methods. This nanobubble technology has made great breakthroughs and its small size makes nanobubbles have different physicochemical and fluid dynamic properties than ordinary macrobubbles. The presence of oxygen content in nanobubbles makes them more efficient for use in several applications related to sterilization, oxidation, and to improve the soil quality. Several properties such as the presence of large area, high concentration, and the higher stability with a hydrophobic nature make nanobubbles efficient and strong in the remediation process. Apart from that these nanobubbles can easily adsorb and aggregate the dispersed particles, making the remediation process stable and effective.

Abstract

Soil organic compounds are one of the major indicators for soil fertility. Decreased content of soil organic compounds usually implies a decline in soil quality. Therefore detection and measurement of soil organic compounds is very important. In recent years, nanosensors have been getting much attention due to their use in many industrial, medical, agricultural and environmental applications. Nanosensors are nanoscale devices that work on the principle of measuring the physical quantity and converting it into detectable signals which further can be analyzed. Nanosensors applications have transformed the conventional agricultural practices in the smart agriculture system that is a more environment-friendly strategy and energy efficient approach for sustainable agriculture. Nanosensors are being synthesized in laboratory conditions with potential to monitor temperature and seasonal changes in the soil system. In the case of detection of pollutants, soil solution treated with nanosensors gives accurate results for the measurement and detection of organic pollutants. Real-time monitoring of soil through nanosensors has reduced the excessive mounts of fertilizers and pesticides being used, thus helping to avoid the product cost and ecological contamination. Development of such nanosensors continues to play a significant part in agricultural advancements. Different types of nanosensors have been developed by employing several fabrication approaches to monitor the soil condition and measurement of organic compounds.
