    Beneficial effects of plant-growth-promoting rhizobacteria they improve soil productivity and crop production: A study of benefits
    Author(s): Waseem ur Rahman* and Wang Guoxiang

    Bacteria in soil are essential for biogeochemical cycles and have been utilized for decades for crop production. The effects of bacterial interactions on plant health and soil fertility are determined in the rhizosphere. Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (Gray, Smith and biochemistry) are free-living bacteria that can promote plant growth by colonizing the plant root. PGPR is also referred to as Plant Health-Promoting Rhizobacteria (PHPR). They are associated with the rhizosphere, which is one of the most important soil ecological environments for plant microbes. Cyanobacteria that fix nitrogen symbiotically include Rhizobium, Bradyrhizobium, Azorhizobium, Allorhizobium, Sinorhizobium, and Mesorhizobium. Plant growth promoters that attach and colonize the root surfaces are free-living nitrogen-fixing bacteria, or association nitrogen fixer’s bacteria. The.. View More»
