A kutatási téma leírása:
The use of microbial inoculums is a general practice in horticulture. Among the bio-fertilizers the Plant-Growth Promoting Rhizosphere (PGPR) bacteria are the most frequent. The role of those microbes are mainly develops in the nutrient mobilization, and in plant-protection. For supporting the survival and functioning of such industrial products, it is necessary to consider the physical-chemical-biological characteristics of the soils, growing substrates.
General aim of the project is the potential reduction or replacement of fertilizers and pesticides. Several biotic and abiotic parameters of soil-plant-microbe systems will be studied. Industrial products of biotic and abiotic bio-effectors going to be tested. General and specific application technology is offered, as part of the potential sustainable solutions.
