Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Both bacterial strains increased sugarcane leaf area, chlorophyll content and photosynthesis in greenhouse plants.
- Observation Rhizobacterial biological N fixation contributed 21–35% of sugarcane plant nitrogen.
- Observation The two N-fixing strains colonize different sugarcane tissues.
- Intervention effect AA7 and BY4 strains had a positive effect on nifH and stress-related gene expression in sugarcane.
- Observation Pantoea dispersa AA7 and Enterobacter asburiae BY4 showed maximum nitrogenase activity among the isolates tested in sugarcane.
- Recommendation Both strains as biofertilizer may minimize nitrogen fertilizer use in sugarcane production.
