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.

Method that allows surfaces in interior spaces or technical equipments to be cleaned, characterised in that it comprises at least the following step: —the targeted atomization on the surfaces of a liquid with spores of benign bacteria on all or certain types of surfaces by means of an electrically and/or pneumatically powered atomizer, while the space remains accessible to people and animals, with the purpose of speeding up the cleaning of interior spaces and of technical equipments, lowering the cleaning frequency, and lowering the dust deposit.

The present invention provides a method for producing a fermentation product by culturing recombinant exosporium-producing Bacillus cells that express a fusion protein of interest on the exosporium in a medium containing sources of carbon and nitrogen in a total concentration of at least 20 g/L, resulting in a fermentation broth containing a high titer of the recombinant Bacillus spores.

The present invention relates to Bacillus methylotrophicus strain DR-08 which produces a natural volatile compound and has antimicrobial activity, and a use thereof. The Bacillus methylotrophicus strain DR-08 according to the present invention, which is an antagonistic microorganism for controlling phytopathogenic microorganisms, and secondary metabolites produced by the strain, which include antibacterially- and antifungally-active non-volatile and volatile materials, are harmless to humans and domestic animals, and exhibit excellent control activity against various phytopathogenic bacteria and fungi while not causing environmental pollution. Thus, the strain and the secondary metabolites can be very usefully used for controlling various plant diseases in an environmentally-friendly manner.
