Use of plant growth promoting bacteria for seed treatment is in trend nowadays as it is beneficial to the plants and environment. But, carrier-based inoculants have short shelf life and difficult to use for large quantities of seed. Therefore, in the present study we used liquid microbial cultures for seed infusion in pigeonpea and assessed their compatibility with seed treating chemicals. The results showed that the soaking of pigeonpea seeds in liquid cultures like pink pigmented facultative methylotroph (PPFM) @ 1 : 100 dilution for 3 h or Rhizobium or phosphobacteria @ 1 : 50 dilution for 4 h have showed increased germination and vigour. In the microbial infused seeds, Rhizobium (13 × 104 cfu g–1 of seed) and phosphobacteria (20 × 104 cfu g–1 of seed) populations observed, were slightly reduced during three months storage. Nevertheless, the population was drastically reduced in PPFM (11 × 104 to 2 × 104 cfu g–1 of seed). Conversely, PPFM has performed better in seed quality enhancement amongst cultures. Also, consortia of Rhizobium @ 1 : 50 dilution + PPFM @ 1 : 100 dilution (1 : 1) for 3 h increased seed vigour with better microbial populations (14 × 104 and 2 × 104 cfu g–1 of seed). Also, seed infusion with PPFM liquid culture @ 1 : 100 dilution for 3 h followed by polymer coating @ 5 ml kg–1 + carbendazim treatment @ 2 g kg–1 of seed recorded increased germination and vigour with the PPFM population of 1 × 104 cfu g–1 of seed.Keywords

Cotton leafhopper, Amrasca biguttula biguttula (Ishida) (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) is a major sucking insect pest of cotton in India. Indiscriminate use of pesticides has led to the development of resistance to most of the recommended pesticide groups. Though there are multiple mechanisms and principles of insecticide resistance development in insects, the gut bacterial-mediated degradation of insecticides is relatively less explored. In the present study, the gut bacteria of field-collected, insecticide-resistant population of A. biguttula biguttula were compared with a laboratory-reared susceptible population. Among the five culturable gut bacteria from the imidacloprid-resistant population, only Enterococcus silesiacus CLHG1a exhibited growth in the agar medium amended with 50 and 100 ppm of imidacloprid. The imidacloprid degrading capacity of E. silesiacus CLHG1a was further confirmed by HPLC analysis. E. silesiacus and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens CLHG2 showed higher esterolytic activity (0.348 and 0.309 mmoles/min/mg respectively). The esterase zymogram on native PAGE revealed a single major band. This study provides clear evidence that the bacterium E. silesiacus isolated from the gut of A. biguttula biguttula has the ability to degrade imidacloprid and may have played a role in the detoxification of pesticides.Keywords
