Hydrocarbons such as petrol, diesel, etc. contamination of land, and surface water is an extensive worldwide environmental pollution issue from the reclamation and refining of crude oil. Oil spills endanger public health, compromise drinking water, devastate natural resources, and rattle the economy. Biodegradation of the hydrocarbon occurs when microorganisms, especially bacteria, feed on oil hydrocarbons. A wide range of potential microorganisms is necessary for a significant reduction of the oil. Although most biosurfactants are considered secondary metabolites, some may play crucial roles in the survival of biosurfactant-producing microorganisms through expedited nutrient transport or microbe-host interactions or by acting as biocide agents. Biosurfactant roles include increasing the surface area and bioavailability of hydrophobic water-insoluble substrates, heavy metal binding, bacterial pathogenesis, quorum sensing, and biofilm formation. Bacteria produce a wide range of biosurfactants with a higher rate of hydrocarbon biodegradability, and higher specific activity at extreme temperatures, salinity, and pH levels that are considered environmentally compatible with limited toxicity. Such kinds of natural microbial compounds are biologically surface-active agents and possess many potential activities over synthetic relatives. Previously microorganisms were considered to be harmful to the petroleum industry, but now it is well known that microorganisms can be helpful in terms of oil recovery also. Biosurfactants are characteristically amphipathic bioactive compounds and contain hydrophobic and hydrophilic portions. They actually act between fluids of different polarities (oil/water and water/oil), thus, allowing access to hydrophobic substrates and thereby reducing the surface tension, also enhancing the mobility, bioavailability, and biodegradation of hydrocarbons. Bioremediation is an encouraging approach to the hydrocarbon spills problem, as this employs microorganisms to degrade hydrocarbons from the environment. The ability to degrade recalcitrant compounds in petroleum has been reported for several bacterial genera isolated from petroleum-contaminated soil having the potential for hydrocarbon degradation.

My research interest is:

Microbial Biosurfactant for petroleum degradation

4 Title of the proposed research: Isolation, Identification and Application of Root Nodule Bacteria in Promoting Growth and Yield of Mung Bean (Vigna radiata)
5 Bacterial nitrogen fixation, also known as biological nitrogen fixation is the alteration of atmospheric nitrogen to ammonia by microorganisms in root nodules of legume plants. This plays a significant aspect in the comprehensive nitrogen cycle and in global agriculture. The introduction of nodulating bacteria into the soil is a good practice for crops because it enhances nutrient and water uptake and minimizes both biotic and abiotic stress. The application of nodulating bacteria for crop cultivation is one of the promising methods for administering nitrogen fertilizers. These bacteria might help in the reduction of external input of fertilizers, greater use of nitrogen by the plant as well as reduced nitrogen loss. Among the leguminous plants, about 95% are associated with bacteria that is they build a symbiotic relationship. These bacteria are symbiotic nitrogen-fixing and produce nodules in the roots, stems and leaves of plants. The minor relationship between leguminous plants and free-living bacteria (endophytes) is reported by many researchers. There are divergent groups of symbiotic bacteria available on the roots of legume plants. However, the identification of these closely related bacterial species is a challenging aspect. Molecular identification using the 16s rRNA gene is a robust technique and common practice for bacteria. Although these free-living endophytes fix nitrogen, they and incapable of inducing root nodules in leguminous plants. This research focuses on the isolation, identification and assessment of symbiotic performances through the observation of growth and yield parameters. Therefore, this research proposal aims to isolate, identify and application of bacterial inoculum to check the growth and yield performance of mung beans.
