Growth Promotion Activities of Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (Pgprs) Isolated from Vidarbha Region, Maharashtra, India: Study on Cotton Crop
Main Article Content
Abstract
Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria are the microbes which are found in the rhizospheric region of soil. These promotes the growth of crops and plays an important role as biofertilizer and pesticidal/fungicidal agent for crops. The chemical fertilizers leave harmful impact in the environment releasing toxic residues in the environment, while PGPRs are utilized as the alternate strategies for maintaining sustainable agriculture. From past few years, the awareness amongst the farmers and agricultural commodity has generated the requirement of such bioformulations. In the present investigation, the PGPRs and their bioformulations were studied on cotton crop in order to determine their growth promotion activities. The results determined the significant growth promotional activities of the PGPRs consortia on the cotton crop.
