Characterization of multi-trait plant growth promoting Pseudomonas aeruginosa from chickpea (Cicer arietinum) rhizosphere

In the current perusal, 12 isolates of Pseudomonas were segregated by rhizospheric soil chickpea (Cicer arietinum) Madhya Pradesh, India. Isolated test organisms characterized morphologically, biochemically and 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Out 12, one isolate designated as P4 was identified aeruginosa through sequencing, which revealed 100% homology with strains DSM 50071 NBRC 12689. The phylogenetic examination accomplished utilizing MEGA-X to confirm identity P4. nucleotide hierarchy from submitted in National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) database under bank accession number MT116414. exhibited multiple plant growth promotion properties like phosphate solubility, indole acetic acid (IAA) production, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) deaminase, siderophores, ammonia (NH3) hydrogen cyanide (HCN) activities, biocontrol activities against phytopathogenic fungi Fusarium oxysporum Macrophomina phaseolina.
