Four selected IAA-producing strains showed nitrogen fixation activity.
Zea maysVerbatim
e0“the best four IAA producers (R1, R3, R5, R8) were selected for further study on maize plant and their activities of nitrogen fixation were also detected by plate screening method”

Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Eighteen rhizobacterial isolates varied in their optimum IAA production periods.
- Observation R1 produced the most IAA at 121.1 ppm.
- Observation Bacillus isolates produced 53.1 to 71.1 ppm IAA.
- Observation Serratia isolates produced relatively little IAA.
- Intervention effect Bacterial isolate treatments did not significantly change maize germination rate.
- Intervention effect R1 significantly increased fresh shoot weight, shoot height and dry shoot weight.
- Intervention effect R3 significantly increased four root growth traits.
- Intervention effect All bacterial isolate treatments promoted maize growth relative to controls.
