Patent number: 11230506Abstract: Disclosed herein are microbial consortia and compositions including microbes for use in agricultural or biodegradation applications. In some embodiments, soil, plants, and/or plant parts (such as seeds, seedlings, shoots, roots, leaves, fruit, stems, or branches) are contacted with a disclosed microbial consortia or composition including microbes. The microbial consortia or microbe-containing compositions may be applied to soil, plant, and/or plant parts alone or in combination with additional components (such as chitin, chitosan, glucosamine, amino acids, and/or liquid fertilizer). In additional embodiments, the disclosed microbial consortia or compositions including microbes are used in methods of degrading biological materials, such as chitin-containing biological materials.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2019Date of Patent: January 25, 2022Assignee: AMVAC Chemical CorporationInventors: Sung-Yong H. Yoon, Kathleen Swords, D. Ry Wagner, Selvasundaram Rajagopal
