PIKOVSKAYA?S AGAR

Phosphate exists in both organic as well as inorganic forms in soil. Organic matter derived from dead and decaying plant debris is rich in organic sources of phosphorus. However, plants are able to utilize phosphorus from soil only in the free available form. Soil phosphates are rendered available either by plant roots or by soil microorganisms. Therefore, phosphate-dissolving soil organisms play a part in correcting phosphorus deficiency of crop plants. Pikovskayas Agar was modified by Sundara Rao and Sinha for detection of phosphate-solubilizing bacteria from soil.
