Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Both B. pumilus isolates inhibited fungal growth in vitro.
- Intervention effect Both B. pumilus isolates reduced brown spot disease in two of three rice cultivars.
- Observation Both B. pumilus isolates tested negative for all screened plant-growth-promoting traits.
- Observation B. megaterium tested negative for ACC deaminase activity and nutrient solubilization.
- Observation B. megaterium exhibited auxin production.
- Intervention effect B. megaterium did not suppress brown spot disease in any of the three rice cultivars.
- Method / resource Common culture-based methods have limitations in effectively identifying beneficial bacteria.
- Association Interactions between bacteria and plant cultivars determine beneficial effects of Bacillus under biotic or abiotic stresses.
