Arsenic is a common menace in the state of West Bengal particularly in the district of 24-Parganas (North) and (South). The major source of arsenic being geologic in nature. Soil samples collected from one such particular location Baduria were tested for the presence of arsenic (As), and on an average the As content of the soil was 2.18mg/kg. Different bacteria were isolated by serial dilution and were also tested for As tolerance. On the basis of their tolerance, three organisms (viz. C-7, A-2, A-1) have shown remarkable percentage uptake of As 43%, 22.17% and 14% respectively, which was highest for C-7 strain. Azithromycin and Streptomycin were found to be more effective to control C-7 with an inhibition zone of 4.5 cm, but for A- 2 and A-1 it was Azithromycin with inhibition zone of 3.8cm and 3.5cm respectively. These organisms were characterized and identified by 16S rDNA technique, BLAST results and the cluster analysis by NTSYSpc ver. 2.02e program, and found to be Bacillus sp. strain CCBAU 51490 (C-7) (GenBank Accession Number EF377314.1), Bacillus subtilis sub sp. subtilis strain DSM 10 (Genbank Accession Number NR_027552.1) (A-2) and Pseudomonas otidis strain MCC 10330 (Genbank Accession Number NR_043289.1) (A-1). They can be used in the treatment of As contaminated sludge generated industrially from As treatment plant. This can give a new insight in microbial arsenic trapping with minimum toxic implications in the nature.Keywords

Soil is a treasure trove of myriad microbial communities that encompass a bewildering array of physiological, metabolic, and genomic diversity essential for sustenance of soil fertility. Over-exploitation of arable lands with extensive use of agrochemicals has negatively impacted soil structure and function by lowering crop productivity. Such damaged agro-ecosystem can be recovered through restoration of microbial richness to replenish various plant-beneficial services at community level. Incorporation of potential single or multiple plant-growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) in soil is a unique strategy in modern sustainable agriculture. In this study, PGPB strains were isolated from a long-term used agricultural soil of Bahadurpur, West Bengal. Only the bacterial isolates having nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium acquisition ability were further screened for multiple plant growth promoting (PGP) traits. Isolates S3, S5, and R1 showed nitrogen-fixing, phosphate and potassium solubilizing ability. They were tested for production of IAA, GA, ACC deaminase, siderophore, biofilm, lytic enzymes, and volatile biochemical compounds under in vitro condition. Three most potent isolates (S3, S5 and R1) were selected for development of a multi-strain consortium to be utilized as bio-inoculant. Based on 16s rRNA gene sequence they were identified as Bacillus zhangzhouensis strain MMAM, B. cereus strain MMAM3, and B. subtilis strain MMAM2.Keywords
