The document discusses the rhizosphere and phyllosphere, which are the regions of soil and plant surfaces influenced by microorganisms. The rhizosphere refers to the region of soil directly influenced by root secretions and microbes. It includes the inner and outer rhizosphere zones. Microbes in the rhizosphere play important roles in plant nutrition, growth promotion, and disease suppression. The phyllosphere refers to the interface between leaves and air, and is inhabited by bacteria, yeast and fungi that can benefit plants through nutrient management, disease control and stress tolerance.
he rhizosphere is the narrow region of soil or substrate that is directly influenced by root secretions and associated soil microorganisms known as the root microbiome.
The phyllosphere is a term used in microbiology to refer to the total above-ground portions of plants as habitat for microorganisms.
It is a biofertilizer that contains symbiotic Rhizobium bacteria which is the most important nitrogen-fixing organism. These organisms have the ability to drive atmospheric Nitrogen and provide it to plants. It is recommended for crops such as Groundnut, Soybean, Red-gram, Green-gram, Black-gram, Lentil, Cowpea, Bengal-gram and Fodder legumes, etc.

Soil organic matter has long been recognized as one of the most important components in maintaining soil fertility, soil quality, and agricultural sustainability. The soil zone strongly influenced by plant roots, the rhizosphere, plays an important role in regulating soil organic matter decomposition and nutrient cycling. Processes that are largely controlled or directly influenced by roots are often referred to as rhizosphere processes. These processes may include exudation of soluble compounds, water uptake, nutrient mobilization by roots and microorganisms, rhizosphere-mediated soil organic matter decomposition, and the subsequent release of CO2 through respiration. Rhizosphere processes are major gateways for nutrients and water. At the global scale, rhizosphere processes utilize approximately 50% of the energy fixed by photosynthesis in terrestrial ecosystems, contribute roughly 50% of the total CO2 emitted from terrestrial ecosystems, and mediate virtually all aspects of nutrient cycling. Therefore, plant roots and their rhizosphere interactions are at the center of many ecosystem processes. However, the linkage between rhizosphere processes and soil organic matter decomposition is not well understood. Because of the lack of appropriate methods, rates of soil organic matter decomposition are commonly assessed by incubating soil samples in the absence of vegetation and live roots with an implicit assumption that rhizosphere processes have little impact on the results. Our recent studies have overwhelmingly proved that this implicit assumption is often invalid, because the rate of soil organic matter decomposition can be accelerated by as much as 380% or inhibited by as much as 50% by the presence of live roots. The rhizosphere effect on soil organic matter decomposition is often large in magnitude and significant in mediating plant-soil interactions.
Mycorrhiza Biofertilizer is also known as VAM (Myco = Fungal + rrhiza = roots) adheres to plants rhizoids leading to development of hyphae. Hyphae boost development and spreading of white root in to soil leading to significant increase in rhizosphere. These hyphae further penetrate and form arbuscules within the root cortical. VAM fungi form a special symbiotic relationship with roots of plant that can enhance growth and survivability of colonized plants. Mycorrhiza Biofertilizer is very useful in organic farming as well as normal commercial farming
Isolation of phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB) from soil Likhith KLIKHITHK1
A number of bacterial species provide beneficial effects to a plant and these are mostly present in rhizosphere and hence called rhizobacteria. This group of bacteria has been termed plant growth promoting rhizobacteria. Phosphorus is an essential element for plant development and growth making up about 0.2 % of plant dry weight. Plants acquire P from soil solution as phosphate anions. However, phosphate anions are extremely reactive and may be immobilized through precipitation with cations such as Ca 2+ , Mg 2+ , Fe 3+ and Al 3+. In these forms, P is highly insoluble and unavailable to plants. Different bacterial species has ability to solubilize insoluble inorganic phosphate compounds, such as tricalcium phosphate, di calcium phosphate, hydroxyapatite, and rock phosphate to soluble form, Hence theses bacteria's are referred to as phosphate solubilizing bacteria.

Studies on the mycorrhiza of Geodorum densiflorum (Lam.) Schltr. from Western...IOSR Journals
Mycorrhizal association of Geodorum densiflorum (Lam.) Schltr. an endangered terrestrial orchid
in the Western Ghats of Karnataka has been investigated. Anatomical studies of the fully grown orchid have
revealed the presence of the fungal coils in the cells of the pseudobulb and in the cortical region of the root,
indicating the continued association of the fungus with the plant. The degree of colonisation was extensive in the
root . Pure culture of the fungus associated with the underground parts of the plant was obtained and identified
as Rhizoctonia solani, a common mycorrhiza forming species with many orchids. The rhizosphere soil analysis
of the nutrients was carried out which revealed the decreased level of phosphate when compared to nitrogen
and potassium. Nutrient analysis supports the fact that mycorrhizal association occurs under the deficiency of
soil nutrients like phosphate.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
6. The rhizosphere is the narrow region of soil that is directly
influenced by root secretions, and associated soil microorganisms
known as the root microbiome.
7. The term Rhizosphere was introduced by the German scientist Hiltner in
1904.
The term rhizosphere is often divided into two general areas,
• the inner rhizosphere (very root surface) and
• the outer rhizosphere (immediate adjacent soil). The microbial
numbers are larger in the inner zone.
The endorhizosphere includes portions of the cortex and endodermis in
which microbes and cations can occupy the "free space" between cells
(apoplastic space).
The rhizoplane is the medial zone directly adjacent to the root including
the root epidermis and mucilage.
The outermost zone is the ectorhizosphere which extends from the
rhizoplane out into the bulk soil.

9. Rhizosphere effect
It indicates the overall influence of plant roots on soil microorganisms. It
can be put on a quantitative basis by the use of Root-Soil relationship.
Microbial interaction in rhizosphere
• Plant exudates are the main factors which influence the growth of
rhizosphere colonizers.
• Microorganisms present in the rhizosphere play important roles in
ecological fitness of their plant host
10. Functions
1. Decomposition of plant residue and organic matter
• Humus formation, mineralization of organic nitrogen, sulphur, and phosphorous
2. Increasing nutrient availability of phosphorous, magnesium, iron, zinc &
copper.
• Symbiotic mycorrhizal association, Production of organic chelating agents

6. Biodegrading synthetic pesticides and contaminants
7. Enhancing drought tolerance of plants
8. Improving soil aggregation
12. The term “phyllosphere” was first published by Dr. Jakoba Ruinen in 1961,. She
called the interface between leaves and air is “phyllosphere”, and said that this
was a much neglected milieu, compared to studies of the rhizosphere.
Subdivisions of phyllosphere
• They are caulosphere (stems),
phylloplane (leaves), anthosphere
(flowers), and carposphere (fruits).
• Phyllosphere is mainly inhabited by
bacteria, yeast, and fungi.
• Bacteria are found in numbers
averaging 106 to 107 cells/cm2 (up to
108 cells/g) of leaf.
• Some phylloplane microbes are able
to fix nitrogen (N) from atmospheric
13. Functions
1. Nutrient management
• Leaf nodulation - N fixation
• Cytokinin production
2. Disease management
• Protection against pathogens
• Induced systemic resistance
3. Environmental stress tolerance
• Control of ice nucleation-active bacteria.
• Protection through aggregation.
