Phosphorus is the second essential macroelements after nitrogen and its deficiency in soil is the major problems in agriculture. Moreover, large amount of synthetic phosphatic fertilizers are added in regular basis for maintaining the phosphorus deficiency but most of the fertilizers get precipitated in the form of different salts in soils and remain unavailable to the plants. Phosphate solubilizing microorganisms have the potential to solubilize the fixed phosphorus in soil especially fungi are found to be more efficient solubilzer than other microorganisms. Phosphatesolubilizing fungi (PSF) have been reported from various habitats such as agricultural fields, saline area, mines, vermicompost etc. Inoculation of PSF in plants results in improved plant growth and yield of several crops such as cereals, legumes, fibers, vegetables and other crop plants. Thus, the use of microbial inoculants particularly the PSF instead of chemical fertilizer have been found effective for growth and yield of plants in sustainable manner.Keywords

This review of ethnobotany of Chhattisgarh state, literature covers approximately the period 1902-2005. During this period about 315 publications have appeared on ethnobotany of C.G. and closely bordering topics. Papers have been published in about 50 journals in India and abroad. Some 110 persons have been writing on ethnobotanical themes; most of these are plant taxonomists. Work has been published on over 16 ethnic groups. Only three or four ethnic groups have been the subject of more than five publications. Only two districts Bastar and Surguja have been well covered. Rest of the districts have been small work or no worked done. Ethnomedicine for over 12 diseases, ailments and injuries figure in titles of papers. Based on this analysis, certain themes and areas are suggested for more intensive work.Keywords

Pulp and paper mills are considered as a core sector industry and are the fifth largest contributor to industrial water pollution. Pulp and paper industrial effluent contains high diversity of xenobiotic and recalcitrant compounds and causes pollution. In pulp and paper industries, lignocellulose is treated by alkaline sulfide during which waste by product known as kraft lignin (KL) is formed. The toxicity and color of the plant effluent is due to the presence of Kraft lignin. Lignin is highly resistant to degradation by microorganisms because of its structural complexity, high molecular weight and variety of biologically stable linkages. However, a variety of microorganisms could be found in nature that degrades lignin involving Bacteria, Fungi and Actinomyces. This article reviews generation and impact of major pollutants present in the pulp and paper mill wastewater and their degradation through bacteria.Keywords

Phosphorus (P) is one of the most essential macro-elements required for growth and development of plants (including photosynthesis, energy and sugar production) . A greater part of P is present in the insoluble form and therefore, cannot be taken up by plants. The deficiency of P in turn severely restricts growth and yields in plants. Aspergillus species, a soil isolate had excellent potential to solubilize phosphate in vitro. In present study fungal strains isolated from soil having potential to solubilize phosphate were characterized. Fungal isolates were characterized as Aspergillus Sp. and Penicillium Sp. Both the isolates were identified by cultural and microscopic examination and are capable of phosphate solubilization.Keywords
