Bacteria that colonize plant roots and promote plant growth are referred to as plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR). PGPR are highly diverse and in this review we focus on rhizobacteria as biocontrol agents. Their effects can occur via local antagonism to soil-borne pathogens or by induction of systemic resistance against pathogens throughout the entire plant. Several substances produced...

The plant growth-promoting rhizobacterial strain Pseudomonas putida Rs-198 was isolated from salinized soils from Xinjiang Province. We optimized the composition of the low-cost medium of P. putida Rs-198 based on its bacterial concentration, as well as its phosphate-dissolving and indole acetic acid (IAA)-producing capabilities using the response surface methodology (RSM), and a mathematical m...

Introduction and exploitation of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) in agro-ecosystems enhance plant-microbes interactions that may affect ecosystems sustainability, agricultural productivity, and environmental quality. The present study was conducted to isolate and identify PGPRs associated with maize (Zea mays L.) from twenty sites of Himalayan region of Hajira-Rawalakot, Azad Jammu ...

In this study, siderophore production by various bacteria amongst the plant-growth-promoting rhizobacteria was quantified by a rapid and efficient method. In total, 23 siderophore-producing bacterial isolates/strains were taken to estimate their siderophore-producing ability by the standard method (chrome azurol sulphonate assay) as well as 96 well microplate method. Production of siderophore w...

The potential of Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) has been demonstrated in the case plant inoculation with bacteria genus Azospirillum which improves yield. A. brasilense produces a wide variety molecules, including natural auxin indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), as well other phytoregulators. However, several studies have suggested that induces changes development during their interaction...

Abstract To fulfils the demand of melons ( Cucumis melo ), it requires intensive maintenance by agrochemical products. If this is done continuously, will lead to soil degradation and disrupt sustainable food supply. Therefore, an innovation needed maintain supply using biofilm biofertilizer technology. This study aims are determine potential bacteria isolated from melon rhizosphere solubilize p...

Soil salinity, due to natural phenomena or human activities, alters the water potential, which in turn affects plant growth, negatively influencing their nutrient and uptake. Plant-growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) can be used counteract these negative effects, especially glycophytes. The aim of our study was characterize physiologically, genetically, biochemically novel halotolerant/haloph...

androgenesis via anther culture or microspore culture is one of the current methods for producing haploid and double haploid plants in maize. to use of this method in maize breeding program it should be able to regenerate enough plantlets. anthers culture usually is carried out indirectly via callus induction and regeneration on at least two different media. in this study a responsive genotype,...
