  • Bacterial consortia for enhancing conversion of organic soil phosphorous to orthophosphate and methods for making and using same
    Patent number: 11773033
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to consortia of bacteria strains and composition comprising one or more bacterial strains disclosed herein. These consortia of isolated bacteria cultures and compositions comprising said cultures, having greater activity than would be observed for the individual bacteria cultures and compositions. A composition of the disclosure may advantageously be used for enhancing the availability of soil phosphorus and other macronutrients and/or micronutrients to plants, and thereby enhancing their growth and yield.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 6, 2022
    Date of Patent: October 3, 2023
    Assignee: Colorado State University Research Foundation
    Inventors: Matthew D. Wallenstein, Colin W. Bell
