Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation All five rhizobacterial isolates exhibited multiple growth-promoting traits.
- Observation Lysinibacillus sphaericus uniquely showed protease activity among the isolates.
- Observation The formulations maintained high microbial viability of 1.29 × 10⁷–8.91 × 10⁷ CFU/g.
- Observation Sawdust supported L. sphaericus and B. thuringiensis (b) in the carrier formulation.
- Intervention effect L. sphaericus with sawdust significantly enhanced okra plant height and biomass compared with NPK and control.
- Intervention effect P. fluorescens with sawdust significantly enhanced okra plant height and biomass compared with NPK and control.
- Recommendation Agro-waste PGPR biofertilizers are proposed as a cost-effective, sustainable alternative to chemical fertilizers.
