e0“The six potent isolates viz. SSB-2, SSB-8, SSB-11, SSB-12, SSB-21, and SSB-24 showed a considerable enhancement in maize plant development under in vitro conditions, including improved antioxidant properties such as catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), polyphenol oxidase (PPO), and phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) activities.”
