Bacteria from native soil in combination with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi augment wheat yield and biofortification
Yadav, R; Ror, P; Rathore, P; Ramakrishna, W. (Elsevier, 2020)Plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) have been used to enhance crop productivity. The effect of native PGPB and arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi in combination on wheat yield, biofortification and soil enzymatic activity ... -
Mycorrhiza and heavy metal resistant bacteria enhance growth, nutrient uptake and alter metabolic profile of sorghum grown in marginal soil
Dhawi, Faten; Datta, Rupali; Ramakrishna, Wusirika; Dhawi, F.; Datta, R.; Ramakrishna, W. (Elsevier Ltd, 2016)The main challenge for plants growing in nutrient poor, contaminated soil is biomass reduction, nutrient deficiency and presence of heavy metals. Our aim is to overcome these challenges using different microbial combinations ... -
Plant tolerance to combined stress: An overview
Ramakrishna, W.; Kumari, A. (Springer India, 2017)The demand for food is predicted to increase by 70% in 2050 due to increasing world population. Efforts are being made to increase food production. However, abiotic and biotic stresses, which tend to reduce crop yield and ... -
Proteomics provides insights into biological pathways altered by plant growth promoting bacteria and arbuscular mycorrhiza in sorghum grown in marginal soil
Dhawi, Faten; Datta, Rupali; Ramakrishna, Wusirika; Dhawi, F.; Datta, R.; Ramakrishna, W. (Elsevier B.V., 2017)Sorghum is an economically important crop, a model system for gene discovery and a biofuel source.
