Once the results were readyDocket No. OATH-015-PCT2 16S sequences were identified using GenBank’s data base and sequence homology searches. 99% sequence identity was used as the threshold value to add a species name to each 16S gene. The outcome of this analyses showed that multiple of the original 140 stocks comprised more than one microbial species. A new set of internal stocks was developed comprising single microbial isolates. Literature and conventional microbiology knowledge were used to select correct phenotypes for further sequencing evaluation. If there were any unknown phenotypes they were also sent for 16S sequencing. The effort resulted in the production of the isolates shown in Table 32 (Example 32), reproduced below. Table 32 shows the updated isolate (ID# and taxonomic prediction) information as well as its corresponding designation from Table 1 (Strain # and Genus / Species). The matches are represented with BLAST comparisons of the 16S rRNA sequences. BLAST values (% identity and alignment length) are shown under the alignment info.

[0144] In certain embodiments, microbes included in a composition herein are biologically pure. As used herein, a "pure" or “biologically pure” organism or population of organisms, such as microbe or microbial population, or the like, includes a population of organisms in the absence of other species or types. A "substantially pure culture" includes a culture which contains substantially no other microbes than the desired strain or strains, e.g., other microbes may be present but not in quantities and / or forms that interfere with the intended use of the culture. A substantially pure culture includes a culture that is substantially free of other contaminants, which can include microbial contaminants as well as undesirable chemical contaminants.Docket No. OATH-015-PCT2

[0145] In certain embodiments, microbes included in a composition herein are isolated. As used herein, "isolate," "isolated," "isolated microbe," “isolated microorganism” and like terms, include the meaning that the one or more microbes has been separated from at least one of the materials with which it is associated in a particular environment (for example soil, water, plant tissue). Thus, an "isolated microbe" does not exist in its naturally occurring environment; rather, the microbe has been removed from its natural setting and placed into a non-naturally occurring state of existence.

[0146] In certain embodiments, microbes of a composition or method are heterologous to each other, and / or heterologous to a soil, plant, plant part, seed, seedling, plant propagule, or other substance in association with the microbes; in certain embodiments at least 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 17, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 or 100 and / or not more than 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 15, 17, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90100, 120, or 140, preferably 2-140, more preferably 2-100, even more preferably 2-80, still more preferably 2-60, yet more preferably 2-40 for example at least 2, preferably at least 3, more preferably at least 4, even more preferably at least 5, yet more preferably at least 7, still more preferably at least 10 microbes of a composition or method are heterologous to each other, or heterologous to a soil, plant, plant part, seed, seedling, plant propagule, or other substance in association with the microbes. As used herein, the terms “heterologous,” "exogenous,” and the like, when referring to one material related to a second material, include a material that is not naturally associated with the second material. Thus, a microbe is considered heterologous to a plant or a plant part, such as a root, or a seed, or the like, if the microbe is not found in nature associated with the particular plant, plant part (e.g., root), seed, or the like, or is not found in the number indicated; in some cases, a population of microbes may contain some microbes that are heterologous to the material, and some that are not heterologous (i.e., normally found with the material) to the material. A microbe can also be heterologous to another microbe if the two are not naturally found together, or are not found in the numbers and / or ratios indicated.

It will be understood that for any composition in which a plurality of populations of particles is used, with different particle sizes, any suitable sizes may be used for the composition.

[0154] Certain particulate compositions are dry compositions. Certain particulate compositions consist essentially of a microbial composition. Certain particulate compositions comprise a microbial composition that includes one or more agricultural adjuvants. 4. Delayed release compositions

[0155] In certain embodiments, delayed release compositions are provided. A “delayed release” composition, as that term is used herein, includes a composition that does not release at least a portion of its active ingredients, e.g., microbes, on first exposure to the environment, or to an environmental trigger in the environment in which it will be used; in certain embodiments, a delayed release composition can release a portion of its active ingredients, e.g., microbes, on first exposure, so long as an additional portion is not released, while in other embodiments none of the active ingredients, e.g., microbes, is released on first exposure. Any suitable materials and configuration may be used, so long as not all of the microbes are released on first exposure to the environment of use or environmental trigger. Materials useful in providing delayed release compositions are well-known in the art; while many of these are useful in pharmaceutical preparations, suitable modifications, if necessary, will be readily apparent. In general materials and / or configurations of such compositions are such that microbes are confined to theDocket No. OATH-015-PCT2 composition during normal conditions of manufacture and transport, but that release at least a portion of the microbes on exposure to one or more environmental triggers, that is, one or more conditions found in the environment of use. Any suitable trigger may be used, such as water, electromagnetic radiation (e.g., sunlight, or certain wavelengths of sunlight), temperature, or even air (e.g., if particles are relatively unexposed to air during transport and storage, for example in an airtight bag, then start to degrade on exposure to air, e.g., when placed in their environment of use), or a combination thereof. In certain embodiments, an environmental trigger is water, which can come from, e.g., rainfall, irrigation, or the like. In general, “exposure to” the environmental trigger or trigger includes sufficient exposure of the composition that the process that occurs to release microbes can occur.

Any suitable configuration of the first components may be used. In certain embodiments the first components form a shell wherein the microbes are confined within, and / or embedded in, and / or associated with a surface of, the shell. In certain embodiments the one or more first components form a matrix in which the microbes are embedded or otherwise associated. In certain embodiments the one or more first components form a plurality of lamellae, wherein the particles are confined between, and / or embedded in, and / or associate with a surface of, the lamellae. It will be appreciated that any or all of these may be combined in particles. In certain embodiments the environmental trigger comprises water, air, temperature, electromagnetic radiation, or a combination thereof. In certain embodiments the environmental trigger is water, for example, water from rainfall, irrigation, or even humidity of the air. In certain embodiments, exposure to the trigger is sufficient to release all the microbes; in other embodiments, repeated exposures and / or duration of exposure is required. Thus, for example, a composition may be formulated so that it remains intact until a first rainfall, when most or all of the particles in the composition are exposed to water. Components andDocket No. OATH-015-PCT2 configuration can be such that all microbe are released at the first rainfall; alternatively, components and configuration can be such that repeated rainfalls, or rainfall of sufficient duration to keep exposing the compositions to water for a prolonged period, is required to release all the microbes.
