Growth promotion of the freshwater microalga Chlorella vulgaris by the nitrogen-fixing, plant growth-promoting bacterium Bacillus pumilus from arid zone soils (2009, background): “Promotion of aquatic microalgae by bacteria, although revealed initially decades ago [44], is an emerging field in which almost all studies have been conducted in recent years [14,15,21,45].”
Advances in plant growth-promoting bacterial inoculant technology: formulations and practical perspectives (1998–2013) (2014, background): “Alginate is a naturally occurring polymer available mainly from different marine macroalgae in large sustainable quantities (Draget et al. 2002; Yabur et al. 2007), as well as from several bacteria (Sabra et al. 2001; Trujillo-Roldán et al. 2003).”
A review on plant growth promoting rhizobacteria acting as bioinoculants and their biological approach towards the production of sustainable agriculture (2015, background): “It is derivd mainly from brown macroalgae such as Macrocystis pyrifera (kelp), but recently it has been found that another macroalga (Sargassum sinicola) produce alginate of similar physical characteristics (Yabur et al., 2007).”
Extraction and characterization of an alginate from the brown seaweed Sargassum turbinarioides Grunow (2010, background): “Some brown algae belonging to the genus Sargassum have been described as producers of alginates (Torres et al. 2007; Yabur et al. 2007; Davis et al. 2004; Larsen et al. 2003; Davis et al. 2003) with varying M/G ratios.”
