Background. Panchagavya is an organic product produced by using five different by-products of cow like cow dung, cow urine, cow milk, cow ghee, cow curd and other ingredients. It has the potential to play the role of promoting growth and providing immunity in plant system thereby confers resistance against pest and diseases. We aimed to report an integrated approach to connect the microbial population assemblages of the Panchagavya by metagenomics and identifying its potential plant-growth-promoting molecules through LCMS attached to the ‘ meltin ’ library..

Compound Function Category Gibberellic Acid (GA) GA is responsible for plant development processes, more specifically the stem growth. Plant hormone Gibberellin A70 A70 is a mutant of GA, it assimilates less carbon per unit of plant mass per day leading to reduce shoot growth Plant hormone Gibberellin A45 Derivative of GA, present in immature seeds Plant hormone Gibberellin A61 Derivative of GA, present in immature seeds involved in early hydroxylation pathway Plant hormone Gibberellin A51 Derivative of GA, present in immature seeds involved in early hydroxylation pathway Plant hormone Gibberellin A4 Derivative of GA, stimulates greater vegetative elongation. It is more effective for induction of staminate flowers Plant hormone Gibberellin A20 Derivative of GA, promotes shoot elongation Plant hormone Gibberellin A29-catabolite Catabolite of GA, forms during the final stage of seed maturation Plant hormone Gibberellin A14 aldehyde Derivative of GA Kaurenol Derivative of Kaurene, involved in seedling growth (phytochrome mediated) Growth factor Strigol Strigol, terpenoid lactone secreted by roots of mono and dicotyledonous plants has been reported to possess germination stimulant activity for seeds Growth factor Spinosin A Spinosin A, major flavonoid compound in Zizyphi semen, responsible for spore germination Insecticide Quercetin 3-rutinoside Rutin,a phytochemical having a quercetin aglycon portion and rutinose, chemically is named quercetin rutinoside, it’s a flavonoid with antioxidant activity found in medicinal plants Flavonoid Brassinin Brassinin is an essential indole phytoalexin produced in plants of the family 69 Brassicaceae Phytoalexin Brassicasterol Brassicasterol, a plant sterol responsible for plant growth promotion Growth factor cis-Zeatin 9-glucoside Cis-isoprenoid is a cytokinins stimulates the plant growth Plant hormone Indole Acetic Acid An auxin involved in growth promotion Plant hormone.
Applications. Improves soil fertility Maintaining good soil health Production of invariably bigger leaves and denser canopy Enhances photosynthetic material Production of synthetic pesticide-free food.
Summary. Updated molecular techniques were used to validate and elucidate the effect of Panchagavya. Metagenomics approach was used to decipher the bacterial microbiome structure, which showed promising results for their existence and abundance in Panchagavya. The metabolome predicted the byproducts of numerous plant growth promoters as well as other compounds released and fermented by these bacteria. Panchagavya is a promising manure that contains helpful microorganisms and plant development promoters . Panchagavya is a bio-formulation that is both ecologically benign and effective in improving soil and crop health ..
