Plant Growth Promotion: Role of Nanoparticles and Soil Microorganisms
Abstract: Crops intended to support rapidly expanding populations often face numerous harsh environmental conditions. Despite the natural evolution of plants in response to changing environments and ongoing efforts to engineer resistant varieties using the latest research advancements, food scarcity remains a challenge. Cultivating rhizosphere microorganisms presents an alternative strategy for enhancing plant growth and development. Moreover, engagements between flora and microbes influence both flora’s well-being and soil productivity. Autonomous soil bacteria, …

Growth-promoting Characteristics of Wheat-associated Acinetobacter
Abstract: Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Soil bacteria that colonize the plant roots after inoculation of the seeds, augmenting plant growth by various mechanisms, are known as plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR). Plant growth promotion, biocontrol, and survival characteristics were studied for 37 Acinetobacter strains from wheat rhizosphere. A19 exhibited antibiotic, siderophore, hydrogen cyanide, chitinase, protease, lipase, indoleacetic acid, naphthaleneacetic acid, ethylene production, nitrogen fixation, and phosphate solubilisation, which are important …
