Research Paper Published by IJMM Journal about Occurrence and diversity of microorganisms isolated

Source: wikipedia.org

International Network for Natural Sciences an open access scholarly research journal publisher published an articles on “Occurrence and diversity of microorganisms isolated” under the International Journal of Microbiology and Mycology, an open access research journal of Microbiology. This article is developed by Oni I. Olawale, Onifade K. Anthony, and Arutopin J. Daniel from the Department of Microbiology, Federal University of Technology, Akure, Ondo State, Nigeria.

Abstract

This study was designed to assess the microbiological and physicochemical properties of soil samples from selected waste dumpsites in parts of Ondo State, Nigeria. The findings of the microbiological analysis carried out showed the mean values of the total heterotrophic bacterial counts ranged from 1.17 × 106 ± 0.08 cfu/g – 7.67 × 106 ± 0.01 cfu/gwhile the total fungal counts recorded ranged from 1.00 × 104 ± 0.02 sfu/g to 6.33 × 104 ± 0.11 sfu/g.

Research Articles | Identification and quantification of soil-borne root rot pathogens communities By IJMM Journal

The root rot disease complex has continued to be a major constraint in the production of common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) resulting in losses of up to 70% in Kenya. The aim of this study was to establish (i) the occurrence and quantification of root rot fungal pathogens of common bean in Western Kenya and (ii) the effect of farming practices on the populations of the pathogens. A survey was conducted in Western Kenya’s LM1 LM2 UN1 and UM3 AEZ’s to obtain data on different farming practices and soil characteristics. Pathogens were isolated and identified using morphological and molecular techniques. Soil pH ranged from 4.59 to 6.01, Percent carbon and nitrogen ranged from 9.8g/Kg0 to 19g/Kg and 0.8 g/Kg to 1.5g/Kg. All farms were infected with root rot fungi, including Fusarium solani, Pythium ultimum, Rhizoctonia solani and Macrophomina phaseolina. Fusarium spp. was the most abundant with the highest populations of 62 X 103 cfu/g soil recorded in lower midland zone 2. The isolation frequency of Fusarium spp., Pythium spp. and Rhizoctonia spp. was high in upper midland zone 1. Quantification of genomic DNA from soil by qPCR was highest for Rhizoctonia solani (2.23X10º pg µL-1). Sand had a positive correlation with Pythium ultimum DNA and Rhizoctonia solani DNA while clay had a negative correlation with Fusarium spp. and Rhizoctonia solani DNA. In conclusion, soil properties, management practices and elevation affected root rot pathogen populations and should be considered when developing management strategies.

International Journal of Microbiology and Mycology | IJMM | published an article entitled “Identification and quantification of soil-borne root rot pathogens communities in smallholder agro-ecosystems of Kenya” in the January issue 2020 under the volume of 11. This research was developed by Mr. Samuel A. Were, Rama D Narla, Eunice W. Mutitu, James W. Muthomi, Luiza. M. Munyua from the institute of the Department of Plant Science and Crop Protection, College of Agriculture and Veterinary Sciences, The University of Nairobi, Nairobi, Kenya. Mr. Janice E. Thies from the institute of the School of Integrative Plant Science, College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, Cornell University, Bradfield Hall Ithaca, USA. Mr. Bernard Vanlauwe, and Mr. Dries Robrooek from the institute of the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA), Nairobi, ICIPE, Kasarani, Nairobi, Kenya.

Keywords: Blood glucose, Garcinia kola, liver enzymes and life expectancy.

Abstract

This study evaluated the effects of acute administration of aqueous extract of Garcinia kola on daily blood glucose level and selected biochemical indices in wistar albino Rats in connection with human health. The serum liver enzymes ALT and ALP increased significantly (p<0.05) in the test animals in groups two and three, Continue reading

The prevalence of extended spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs) among Escherichia coli and Klebsiella species urinary isolates from Abia state university teaching hospital (ABSUTH) aba, Abia State Nigeria

Escherichia coli

Keywords: Beta-lactamases (ESBLs), Prevalence, Urinary isolates.

Abstract

The prevalence of extended spectrum β-lactamases among 246 clinical isolates from Abia State University teaching Hospital patients was investigated. The isolates were made up of 134 Escherichia coli and 112 Klebsiella species. Antimicrobial susceptibility of the isolates was determined by the disc diffusion method. Continue reading
