The present invention relates to a composition comprising a) recombinant exosporium-producing Baciillus cells that express a fusion protein comprising: (i) at least one plant growth stimulating protein or peptide and (ii) a targeting sequence that localizes the fusion protein to the exosporium of the Baciillus cells; and b) at least one particular fungicide disclosed herein in a synergistically effective amount. Furthermore, the present invention relates to the use of this composition as well as a method for enhancing plant growth, promoting plant health, and/or reducing overall damage of plants and plant parts.

The present invention provides for a bio-nematocide for repairing damage to wood and related cellulosic products caused by nematodes.

An insecticidal composition wherein the composition has an insecticidal effect based a modification of the bacteria of the genus gluconacetobacter. The Insecticidal effect show activity against Green peach aphid (Myzus persicae (Sulzer)); Western flower thrips (Frankliniella occidentalis) on peaches and Citrus woolly whitefly (Aleurothrixus floccosus) on citrus.

Provided is a type of Rhizobium with the classified nomenclature of BradyRhizobium sp. KTMS 0001 or BradyRhizobium sp. KTMS 0002, and the deposit number of CCTCC No. M2017580 or CCTCC No. M2017581. Also provided are a bacterial preparation containing the Rhizobium, a method for restoring rare-earth tailings soil and a use of the Rhizobium.

The invention relates to a liquid preparation comprising biologically active fungi and/or fungal organs and/or other microorganisms in a suspension, to a method for producing it and to the use thereof for biological protection of plants, for biological plant strengthening, or for biological soil improvement. Polyether-modified trisiloxane is a preferred liquid used. The preparation according to the invention is notable for easily manageable storage at room temperature, trouble-free transport, and simplicity of production and application.

A method for increasing the presentation of ETEC CS6 antigen on cell surface, comprising the step of contacting cells expressing said antigen with an aqueous solution comprising 0.6-2.2 percent phenol by weight, such that the presentation of said antigen is increased by at least 100%. A method for the manufacture of a killed whole cell vaccine for immunization against CS6-expressing ETC. Cells and vaccines obtainable by the above methods.

The present disclosure provides novel agricultural microbial inoculant compositions for uses in promoting plant growth, plant productivity and/or soil quality. The novel microbial inoculant compositions comprise one or more microbial species, one or more urease inhibitors and/or one or more nitrification inhibitors. The present disclosure also provides fertilizer compositions comprising said microbial inoculant compositions.

A method of increasing east one growth characteristic of a plant comprising growing a Cladosporium sphaerospermum strain in or on a medium in a container, where a headspace of said C. sphaerospermum in said container is in fluid communication with a headspace of said plant, where said C. sphaerospermum produces at least one volatile organic compound (VOC), where said at least one VOC produced by said C. sphaerospermum causes the plant to have an increase in at least one growth characteristic when compared to the growth characteristic of a plant which has not been exposed to the VOC, and where said C. sphaerospermum comprises an ITS1/2 consensus amplicon of SEQ ID NO: 5 and an ITS3/4 consensus amplicon of SEQ ID NO: 6.

The present invention relates to a composition comprising a) recombinant exosporium-producing Bacillus cells that express a fusion protein comprising: (i) at least one plant growth stimulating protein or peptide and (ii) a targeting sequence that localizes the fusion protein to the exosporium of the Bacillus cells; and b) at least one particular insecticide disclosed herein in a synergistically effective amount. Furthermore, the present invention relates to the use of this composition as well as a method for enhancing plant growth, promoting plant health, and/or reducing overall damage of plants and plant parts.
