Detection of siderophores in endophytic bacteria Methylobacterium spp. associated with Xylella fastidiosa subsp pauca

The objective of this work was to study the production of siderophores by endophytic bacteria Methylobacterium spp., which occupy the same ecological niche as Xylella fastidiosa subsp. pauca (Xfp) ...

Leaf-residing Methylobacterium species fix nitrogen and promote biomass and seed production in Jatropha curcas

Background: Jatropha curcas L. (Jatropha) is a potential biodiesel crop that can be cultivated on marginal land because of its strong tolerance to drought and low soil nutrient content. However, se...

Methylobacterium gossipiicola sp nov., a pink-pigmented, facultatively methylotrophic bacterium isolated from the cotton phyllosphere

A pink, aerobic, facultatively methylotrophic, motile, Gram-negative rod, designated Gh-105(T), was isolated from the phyllosphere of cotton from Coimbatore (Tamilnadu, India). 16S rRNA gene sequen...

Transgenic banana plants expressing Xanthomonas wilt resistance genes revealed a stable non-target bacterial colonization structure

Africa is among the continents where the battle over genetically modified crops is currently being played out. The impact of GM in Africa could potentially be very positive. In Uganda, researchers ...
