We aimed to dissect the effects of two different beneficial microbial taxa (plant growth-promoting bacteria [PGPB] and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi [AMF]) on root morphological traits, plant nutrient content and growth in tomato and corn fertilized with either Gafsa rock phosphate (RP) or triple ...
Plant Growth Promoting Bacteria (PGPB) can be epiphytic, endophytic, and rhizospheric and promote plant growth by producing phytohormones (indole acetic acids or IAA, gibberellic acids or GA, cytokinin), biological nitrogen fixation, solubilizing and binding nutrients (phosphorus, potassium, zinc) and ...
The use of plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) is increasingly gaining acceptance from all the stakeholders of the agricultural production. Different strains of PGPB species had been found to have a vast variety of mechanisms of action, while at the same time, affect differently a variety of ...
Fig. 3. A model proposing how plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) that both produce 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) deaminase and synthesize indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) may induce plant growth. S-adenosyl methionine (SAM) is converted to ACC by the enzyme ACC synthase, while ACC ...
Plant-microbe interactions in the rhizosphere are the determinants of plant health, productivity and soil fertility. Plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) are bacteria that can enhance plant growth and protect plants from disease and abiotic stresses through a wide variety of mechanisms; those that ...
a Evaluation of growth-promoting effect and properties of ten strains on tobacco. The asterisk on the bar chart means significantly higher than the control (n = 9, P < 0.01, one-way ANOVA test). b Construction of SynComs and pair interaction of growth-promoting bacteria. The size...
Rhizosphere bacteriaPlant growth promotionA total of 390 bacterial strains were obtained from rhizosphere soils of an invasive plant, Ageratina adenophora, and common native plants. These strains were evaluated for their plant growth-promoting (PGP) characteristics, including IAA and siderophore production...
Plant-bacteria associations have been studied for many decades. However, a complete understanding of the mechanisms utilized by plant growth-promoting bacteria had remained somewhat elusive, often making it difficult to take full advantage of these complex relationships to reproducibly improve the growth ...
We performed laboratory and pot experiments to understand the synergistic interactions among plant growth-promoting bacteria to alleviate the drought-induced damages in maize. Initially, ten bacterial strains were evaluated for their osmotic stress tolerance capacity by growing them in a media containing ...
