Distribution, Abundance, and Environmental Responses of Actinobacteria in Rhizospheric and Bulk Soils of Al-Haniya, Libya

Introduction Soil microorganisms, particularly Actinobacteria, play pivotal roles in maintaining terrestrial ecosystem functioning through organic matter decomposition, nutrient cycling, and symbiotic plant interactions [8]. Among these, the phylum Actinobacteria—notably the genus Streptomyces—has garnered global attention due to its unparalleled metabolic versatility, including the production of bioactive compounds (e.g., antibiotics, enzymes) and contributions to soil structure stabilization [18]. …

Effect of Synthetic Auxin on Water Content of Seedlings of Prosopis julifloraSwarz DC

. Introduction The synthetic auxin 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4-D) mimics the effects of the natural auxin indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) in plants[1]. Unlike IAA quickly inactivated; 2,4-D persists for extended periods. This prolonged presence can create an imbalance in auxin levels and disrupt interactions with other hormones at the tissue level[2]. 2,4-D accumulates in chloroplasts and …

Characterization of Soil and Growth Response of Rice on Different Positions along the Toposequence in Awka, Anambra State

INTRODUCTION Soils are unrenewable natural resources that vary in their properties and composition spatially across the landscape and vertically down the soil profile (Brady & Weil., 2010., Brubaker et al., 1993). However, soil variation is a function of various factors, including climate, living organisms, parent materials, topography, and time. Within a locality, the topography may …
