Mechanisms of Cell Wall Degrading Enzymes from Bacillus methylotrophicus and Bacillus subtilis in Suppressing Foliar Blight Pathogens

Neha Saini, Manvika Sahgal & Ajay Veer Singh · Journal of Advances in Biology & Biotechnology · 2024

Bacillus strains are potent Biocontrol agents (BCAs) and have been identified as an effective way to control the growth of phytopathogens of wheat. Through a direct inhibition mechanism which involves the production of cell wall degrading enzymes (proteases, glucanase, and chitin...

Optimizing Siderophore Production in Bacillus subtilis to Enhance Seed Germination and Biocontrol Efficacy against Alternaria triticina and Bipolaris sorokiniana

Neha Saini, Vindhya Bundela, Shivani Singh, Manvika Sahgal & Ajay Veer Singh · Journal of Scientific Research and Reports · 2024

Introduction: Bacillus subtilis (UP11) is a gram-positive, plant growth-promoting rhizosphere bacterium (PGPR) isolated from the wheat rhizosphere. This bacterium produces siderophore, are low-molecular-weight, high-affinity molecules produced under iron-limiting conditions. This...
