In this study, we identified seven root microsymbionts of <em>V. gummifera</em>, and determined their phenotypic characteristics, Plant Growth-Promoting (PGP) activities and their symbiotic efficiency. The bacteria were isolated from root nodules of the plant grown in Moroccan forest soils located in arid and semi-arid regions. The 16S rRNA gene sequences analysis of seven isolates showed similarity values ranging from 99.85% to 99.92% with <em>Sinorhizobium fredii</em> USDA205^T. The phenotypic analyses displayed that the strains use different carbohydrates, mainly mono and di-saccharides, as a sole carbon source, and 13 out of 15 amino acids tested as the sole nitrogen source. The strains have variable tolerance to heavy metals, but are sensitive to salinity and high temperature, as no one grew in the presence of 2% NaCl (w/v) or at 40 °C, respectively. On the other hand, the strains grew in a very high osmotic stress environment induced by PEG 6000 (20% w/v), and they all grow in a pH range between 6.5 and 9. The strains possess PGP activities, such as phosphate solubilization, siderophore, and indole acetic acid production. Inoculation under axenic conditions showed that the strains increased the aerial biomass of inoculated plants up to 217%, whereas the relative symbiotic efficiency percentages (74.87–140,3%) showed that most strains are very efficient. From all these results we concluded that our strains may be proposed as inoculum for large-scale applications, such as reforestation programs.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":8774,"journal":{"name":"Biocatalysis and agricultural biotechnology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142270917","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Bioactive compounds and peptides sourced from split gill mushrooms hold promise in this regard. This study aims to optimize the conditions for papain-mediated hydrolysis of split gill mushroom protein to inhibit TYR activity, utilizing response surface methodology (RSM) and central composite design (CCD). Optimal conditions were determined at a temperature of 46.70 °C, a hydrolysis time of 217.09 min, and an enzyme-to-substrate ratio (E/S) of 1.1%.

The experimental factors included: osmotic stress at five levels (0, −3, −6, −9 and −12 bar) and seed priming with nano chitosan particles at five concentrations (0, 50, 100, 200, and 300 ppm). The evaluated parameters in this study were alometric traits and enzymatic activities including proline, catalase, ascorbate peroxidase, superoxide dismutase, and total soluble sugar, as well as the content of chlorophyll <em>a, b</em>, and carotenoids. The results indicated the significant effect of most of the studied quantitative and qualitative traits. The highest values of seedling, plumule and radicle length (48.20, 17.79 and 30.15 mm, respectively), and the fresh weight of seedlings and plumule (0.9743 and 0.9192 g, respectively) were observed at a concentration of 200 ppm of chitosan nanoparticles.

The success of the fermentation process relies on various factors to achieve the desired end product. This study's main goal was to assess the feasibility of using turmeric as a fermentable substrate for LAB, with the intention of creating a non-dairy fermented beverage. The investigation delved into the impact of several fermentation parameters, namely Fermentation Temperature, pH (Lemon juice concentration), Inoculum concentration, and Substrate concentration (Turmeric concentration), on the phytochemical and antioxidant properties of the lactic acid-fermented turmeric beverage (FTB). Statistical analysis revealed that a quadratic polynomial model could effectively illustrate how these fermentation parameters influenced the beverage's phytochemical and antioxidant qualities. Visualization through response surface plots revealed that these independent variables significantly influenced the beverage's total phenolic content, total flavonoid content, and antioxidant properties. Optimal fermentation conditions were identified to yield the highest levels of phenolic, flavonoid, and antioxidant content.
