| Abstract | 2-Keto-4-methylthiobutyric acid (KMBA) has been identified as an intermediate in methionine-derived ethylene (C2H4) biosynthesis by microbial cultures. This study was designed to assess the effectiveness of KMBA as an C2H4 precursor in soil. Gas chromatographic analysis indicated that amendment with KMBA (up to 10 mM) stimulated the biosynthesis of C2H4 in two Pakistani soils. Results also revealed that substrate- (KMBA)-dependent C2H4 production was inhibited when the soils were amended either with glucose (as a C source), NH4NO3 (N source) or antibiotics. The KMBA-derived C2H4 biosynthesis in both soils was maximum when the soil suspension was amended with 10 mM substrate and incubated at pH 7.5 for a period of 120 h at 35°C with shaking. Comparison of soils revealed that C2H4 production was relatively greater in a silty clay loam S1 (containing 1.15% organic C) soil compared to a loamy S2 (containing 0.54% organic C) soil. KMBA was found to be an equally effective substrate of C2H4 when compared with another intermediate, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC), whereas, α-ketglutaric acid failed to serve as an C2H4 substrate in soil. As far as we know, this is the first study reporting KMBA-dependent C2H4 production in soil. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
