Yeasts play an important role in nature, and soil is one of the largest reservoirs of yeasts. Seventy-seven yeast strains were isolated from southern Chilean volcanic ash soil. These 77 strains were composed of 30 strains derived from soils used as permanent grassland, 30 strains from rotating grassland, and 17 strains from native forest (considered as the control). These strains were identified using restriction fragment length polymorphisms (PCR-RFLP) in conjunction with ITS-5.8S rDNA sequencing. Additionally, a physiological characterization of the assimilation of carbon and nitrogen and the fermentation of sugars was performed. Various features of the strains were evaluated including their growth in vinasse medium, nitrogen and phosphorus content, and lipid production. Lastly, the use of strains as biofertilizers was analyzed via the cultivation of bell pepper seedlings in soil. From the RFLP profiles, the 77 strains clustered into 10 groups. Of these, only three groups could be identified to the species level, and another was classified to the level of genus (Devaryomyces hansenii, Pichia fermentan, Kazachstania exigua, Candida sp.). All strains grew in vinasse medium. Six strains (PP1, PP4, PR4, PR10, PR27 and PR29) showed a high capacity to accumulate lipids, and three strains (PP1, PP21 and PR28) have the potential to be used as biofertilizers.

“…The organisms were observed to enhance disease suppression, stress tolerance and plant growth improvement. Some promising endophytic bacteria were isolated from Echinacea purpurea and Lonicera japonica in a study carried out by Gupta et al (2016) . The isolates were found effective in siderophores production, phosphate solubilization, hydrogen cyanide production, indole acetic acid production, and fixing of atmospheric nitrogen.…”

Pathogen affects plant growth, host health and productivity. Endophytes, presumed to live inside the plant tissues, might be helpful in sustaining the future of agriculture. Although recent studies have proven that endophytes can be pathogenic, commensal, non-pathogenic, and/or beneficial, this review will focus on the beneficial category only. Beneficial endophytes produce a number of compounds which are useful for protecting plants from environmental conditions, enhancing plant growth and sustainability, while living conveniently inside the hosts. The population of endophytes is majorly controlled by location, and climatic conditions where the host plant grows. Often the most frequently isolated endophytes from the tissues of the plant are fungi, but sometimes greater numbers of bacteria are isolated. Beneficial endophytes stand a chance to replace the synthetic chemicals currently being used for plant growth promotion if carefully explored by researchers and embraced by policymakers. However, the roles of endophytes in plant growth improvement and their behavior in the host plant have not been fully understood. This review presents the current development of research into beneficial endophytes and their effect in improving plant growth.

“…Phosphate solubilization has also been reported under environmentally stressed conditions under high levels of aluminium, iron and desiccation (Vyas et al, 2007). The inoculation of phosphate solubilizers in nutrient-deficient soils could reduce the load of external application of chemical fertilizers (Gupta et al, 2016).…”

Microorganisms native to shifting cultivation were isolated and screened for plant growth promotion (PGP) properties. The bacterial and fungal isolates that exhibed production of indole compounds, siderophores, and ammonia; phosphate solubilization; and catalase activity, were selected and tested for their ability to promote the early growth of upland rice plants. Potential isolates from a preliminary seed germination assay carried out in plates were further tested in pots under greenhouse conditions. Observations after two and four weeks of growth indicated that all treated rice plants had higher shoot and root length than those in the control group. Of the isolates used in the experiment, the bacterial isolate SB5 and the fungal isolate SF4 exhibit higher growth activity, with growth increases of 26.20% and 15.87% respectively, over the control group. These isolates are being explored for consortium development as bioinoculants, in an attempt to restore the fertility of jhum fallows.
