Area around the root zone i.e. rhizosphere is a rich environment for plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPR) which can be utilized in many way to improve the growth of crop and yield. In agriculture one of the limiting factors is providing plant nutrition particularly nitrogen and phosphorus to the crop. Different Plant-Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) such as Azospirillum, Azotobacter, Bac...

The potential of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) to improve growth and nutrient acquisition has received increased attention. This study investigated the synergistic effects combining PGPR Paraburkholderia sp. SOS3 with addition inorganic N fertilizer (iN) or a combined application organic manure-based (iNoN) at low high levels fertilization on Macadamia integrifolia seedling growth...

Salinity is one of the most important abiotic stresses that limit crop growth and productivity. This study focuses on the effects of different strains of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) on the physiological responses of two wheat cultivars under normal and salt stress conditions. The wheat cultivars selected include one which is tolerant to salinity (Kavir) and one which is sensitiv...

Salinity is the major environmental factor limiting plant growth and productivity. Under salinity conditions, plant growth is affected by a number of factors such as hormonal and nutritional imbalance, ion toxicity, physiological disorders, susceptibility to diseases, etc. Plant growth under stress conditions may be enhanced by the application of microbial inoculation including plant growth pro...

We isolated and identified a gibberellin-producing Burkholderia sp. KCTC 11096 from agricultural field soils. The culture filtrate of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) significantly increased the germination and growth of lettuce and Chinese cabbage seeds. The ethyl acetate extract of the PGPR culture showed significantly higher rate of lettuce seed germination and growth as compared ...

Schizolobium parahyba var. amazonicum (Huber ex Ducke) occurs naturally in the Brazilian Amazon. Currently, it is being planted extensively because of its fast growth and excellent use in forestry. Consequently, there is great interest in new strategies to increase wood production. The interaction between soil microorganisms and plants, specifically in the roots, provides essential nutrients fo...
