Reducing nutrient requirement using nitrogen-fixing bacteria for microalgae cul...
Melkonyan, Lusine; Ferreira, Alice; Bastos, Carolina R. V.; Figueiredo, Daniel; Lopes da Silva, Teresa; Avetisova, Gayane; Karapetyan, Zh.ABSTRACT: In environments, microalgae have been observed to coexist with bacteria. Different nitrogen-fixing bacteria (NFB) were isolated from Armenian soils and their growth was evaluated in co-cultivation with the microalga Tetradesmus obliquus and cyanobacteria Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. The most effective mutualistic consortium was T. obliquus-NFB5 (Sphingobacterium sp. L13G8). This resulted an increase in...
Consortium of microalgae/nitrogen-fixing bacteria as a next-generation bioferti...
Gouveia, Luisa; Ferreira, Alice; Bastos, Carolina R. V.; Avetisova, Gayane; Karapetyan, Zh.; Toplaghaltsyan, A.; Melkonyan, LusineABSTRACT: This study aims to provide insights into a new consortium of a microalga, twelve nitrogen-fixing (N-fixing) bacteria and a cyanobacterium. The microalga Tetradesmus obliquus (T), in conjunction with various N-fixing bacteria and the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 (S), the N-fixing bacterium Sphingobacterium sp. L13G8 (5), cultivated in complete Bristol medium and in Bristol-NaNO3 free condi...
Biostimulant and biopesticide potential of microalgae growing in piggery wastew...
Ferreira, Alice; Melkonyan, Lusine; Carapinha, Sofia; Ribeiro, Belina; Figueiredo, Daniel; Avetisova, Gayane; Gouveia, LuisaABSTRACT: Pig farming generates highly polluting wastewaters which entail serious environmental issues when not adequately managed. Microalgae systems can be promising for cost, energy and environment-efficient treatment of piggery wastewater (PWW). Aside from clean water, the produced biomass can be used as biostimulants and biopesticides contributing to a more sustainable agriculture. Three microalgae (Tetrad...
