Antifungal activity of plant extracts against phytopathogenic fungi
Aqueous-methanolic extracts and acetone exudates of 24 plant species were screened for their antifungal activity against four largely spread plant pathogens possessing a broad spectrum of plant hosts - Alternaria alterna...
Virulence potential of Enterococcus gallinarum strains isolated from selected Nigerian traditional fermented foods
Five Enterococcus isolates from some Nigerian traditional fermented foods were identified as Enterococcus gallinarum by using phenotypic and genotypic tests. Safety properties such as antibiotic susceptibility, vir...
Exploration on production of rhamnolipid biosurfactants using native Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains
Biosurfactants are structurally diverse surface-active molecules, produced on living surfaces, mostly microbial cell surfaces or excreted extracellularly. Rhamnolipid biosurfactants have wide spectrum use and are p...
In vitro inhibitory effect of plant extracts on growth of seed-borne Alternaria alternata fungus
Antifungal substances of plant origin could be used as an inhibitor to control fungal seed diseases growth and development. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of alcoholic and aqueous extracts of few...
Occurrence of hydrocarbon-degrading nitrogen-fixing bacteria in the rhizosphere of Paspalum vaginatum Sw.
This study investigated the influence of nitrogen-fixing hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria from the rhizosphere of plants in the biodegradation of crude oil in the polluted soil. Several nitrogen-fixing and crude oil utiliz...
