Abstract:
Global gross domestic products directly dependent on agriculture sector. It has estimated the world population rise up to 9.5 million by 2050, leading to high food consumption. Environmental conditions, biological health of soil and new emerging technologies in food industries are important criteria for achieving the targeted goal of food security. This research is focused to isolate E. coli from road side rain water and validation of E. coli in different area for substantial progress. Escherichia (E. coli is a faecal microbe that inhabits the intestines of endotherms (primary habitat) and the natural environment (secondary habitats). Due to prevailing thinking regarding the limited capacity of E. coli to survive in the environment, relatively few published investigations exist regarding environmental factors influencing E. coli’s survival. To help future researchers, an overview of factors known to impact the survival of E. coli in the environment and its interaction with various developmental process is provided. Notably, the lack of historic field-based research holds two important implications: (1) large knowledge gaps regarding environmental factors influencing E. coli’s survival in the environment exist; and (2) the efficacy of implemented abiotic stress management strategies has rarely been assessed on larger field scales, thus leaving their actual impact (s) largely unknown. Moreover, the persistence of E. coli in the environment calls into question its widespread and frequent use as a faecal indicator microorganism. To address these shortcomings, future work should include more field-based studies, occurring in diverse physiographical regions and over larger spatial extents. This information will provide scientists and land-use managers with a new understanding regarding environmental factors influenced by E. coli in plant, thereby providing insight to address problematic faecal contamination effectively.
