This has become a concern since metals are non-biodegradable and toxic. Most of the reclamation methods currently used for soils rely on the use of physical and chemical means, which tend to be very expensive and result in secondary environmental damage. However, microbe-aided phytoremediation is gaining attention as it is an eco-friendly, affordable, and technically advanced method to restore the ecosystem. It is essential to understand the complex interaction between plants and microbes. The primary function of plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) is to stimulate plant development, aid in metal elimination, and reduce their bioavailability in the soil. These microbes regulate phytohormones, stimulate processes such as phytoextraction and phyto-stabilization, and improve the uptake of essential nutrients, such as nitrogen and phosphorus. PGPBs secrete a range of enzymes and chemicals, fix nitrogen, solubilize minerals, increase the bioavailability of nutrients under diverse biological environments with high salinities, excessive metal-contaminated soil, and organic pollutants, increase the soil fertility and help in the reclamation of agriculture and regenerate the native flora. The integration of CRISPR-Cas9 gene-editing technology with microbial-aided phytoremediation and the use of genetically modified microbes with nanomaterials further enhance the efficacy of the approaches in polluted environments for sustainable restoration of the soil.展开更多

In this work, liquid biofertilizer was produced from whole orange, banana and grape, wheat and rice chaff,?Moringa oleifera?leaves, soil, and brown sugar (as carbon source) mixed with water and cultured in an anaerobic condition for two weeks. The sieved culture was stored in a tightly sealed PVC container at room temperature for biochemical analysis of microbial population. Nitrogen fixing bacteria (Azotobacter?sp.) and phosphorus solubilizing bacteria were isolated using Ashby’s Mannitol Azotobacter medium and Pisvikoya’s PSB medium respectively, while?Bacillus sp. was isolated using Bacillus agar. Field experiment was carried out to investigate the performance rates of the biofertilizer against those of the Nitrogen/Phosphorus/Potassium (NPK) chemical fertilizer and the control, on the growth of corn (Zea mays). The experimental design consisted of three treatments of the Biofertilizer, Chemical fertilizer (NPK) and Control, conducted in three replicates. Data collected were analyzed using?one-way ANOVA at?P?< 0.05. The results showed significant improvement in growth and yield of maize on which biofertilizer was applied as against those treated with NPK and the Control. The plants treated with the biofertilizer did not show signs of insects attack, which were easily observed on the blades of those treated with NPK and the control.展开更多
