Distinct Root Microbial Communities in Nature Farming Rice Harbor Bacterial Strains With Plant Growth-Promoting Traits

A nature farming system is an ecological practice that entails cultivating crops without using chemical fertilizers and pesticides. To understand the diversity functions of root microbiomes associated with systems, we compared microbial community rice under conditions those conventional conditions. High-throughput amplicon analysis demonstrated a higher abundance greater microbiome unfertilized than The application reduced some beneficial taxa important for plant growth health. Subsequently, isolated identified 46 endo- epiphytic bacteria from roots grown examined their growth-promoting activity. Six potential isolates were selected assessment in insoluble P- K-containing media. Most promoted growth, Pseudomonas koreensis AEPR1 was able to enhance significantly both Our data indicated systems create distinct comparatively more diverse supports low-input cultivation practices practices. could be exploited as sources applications sustainable agriculture.
