Isolation and study of Soil microbes

Author : S. Mala 1

Date of Publication :14th March 2019

Abstract: Soil provides substratum for plants and animal life, it is a favourable habitat for various microorganism, and the production of the crops also depends on the quality of the soil. Soil and microorganisms are interdependent, microbes add nutrients to soil. So the present study was undertaken to isolate and identify certain microbes from the soil and to study their characterization.
