Overview

This analysis reveals biosurfactant activity and growth-enhancing traits in Pichia occidentalis, suggesting its agricultural applications.

Key Points

  • MHY1 significantly improved seed germination and seedling vigor in paddy, pearl millet, and sorghum, showcasing its effectiveness as a plant growth promoter.
  • The isolate MHY1 exhibited the highest emulsification index of 24% when in contact with kerosene, demonstrating strong biosurfactant properties.
  • Assessment methods included semi-quantitative screening techniques such as emulsification index, oil displacement, and microplate assays for biosurfactant evaluation.
  • These findings point to the dual functionality of MHY1 as both a biosurfactant producer and a promoter of plant growth, indicating its potential role in sustainable agriculture.
