The present work relates to a novel microbe belonging to Bacillus family exhibiting antimicrobial and/or antifungal and plant growth promoting activity. The present work relates to the method of its isolation and identifying extract of the novel microbe exhibiting antimicrobial and/or antifungal, plant growth promoting proteolytic amylolytie activities. In particular, there is provided a novel bacterium Bacillus subtilis ssp. shriramensis having accession number MTCC-5674. The novel bacterium is cultured in the medium to mass produce the antimicrobial and/or antifungal and plant growth promoting agent by the novel microbe and Sin the culture medium. There is provided a composition comprising the novel bacterium or an extract of the novel bacterium, which is agriculturally and pharmaceutically effective. The novel bacterium of the present work is used in the treatment against various pathogenic fungi and/or bacteria and promoting growth plants.
A composition comprising an extract of a bacterium belonging to Bacillus subtilis ssp. shriramensis having the accession number MTCC-5674 and one or more antimicrobial, antifungal or plant growth promoting agents, wherein the composition exhibits antimicrobial or antifungal activity.
A composition comprising a bacterium belonging to Bacillus subtilis ssp. shriramensis having the accession number MTCC-5674 and one or more antimicrobial, antifungal or plant growth promoting agents, wherein the composition has antimicrobial or antifungal and plant growth promoting activity at a concentration 5×105 cfu/ml to 5×107 cfu/ml of the bacterium.
A composition comprising a bacterium belonging to Bacillus subtilis ssp. shriramensis having the accession number MTCC-5674, exhibiting antimicrobial or antifungal and plant growth promoting activity, an extract therefrom exhibiting antimicrobial or antifungal activity, and one or more antimicrobial, antifungal or plant growth promoting agents, wherein the composition has antimicrobial or antifungal and plant growth promoting activity.
A method for inhibiting growth of pathogenic fungi and/or bacteria, wherein said method comprises contacting the pathogenic fungi and/or bacteria with an effective amount of 5×105 cfu/ml to 5×107 cfu/ml of a bacterium belonging to Bacillus subtilis ssp. shriramensis having the accession number MTCC-5674, exhibiting antimicrobial or antifungal and plant growth promoting activity or a composition comprising a bacterium belonging to Bacillus subtilis ssp. shriramensis having the accession number MTCC-5674, exhibiting antimicrobial or antifungal and plant growth promoting activity or an extract therefrom exhibiting antimicrobial or antifungal activity, wherein the composition has antimicrobial or antifungal and plant growth promoting activity.
