Title
Sosanka Protim Sandilya; Pinky Moni Bhuyan; Vijay Nageshappa; et al. Journal of soil science and plant nutrition 2017. doi:10.4067/s0718-95162017005000036
Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Most selected Pseudomonas sp. isolates from castor rhizosphere produced indole acetic acid, gibberellic acid, ACC deaminase activity, ammonia, hydrogen cyanide and siderophore in vitro.
- Observation Pseudomonas strains MAJ PIA01, MAJ PIA03 and MAJ PIA24 have antifungal activity against five common plant pathogens.
- Intervention effect Isolate MAJ PIA03 applied with 50 % of the recommended inorganic fertilizer enhanced number of leaves per plant, leaf biomass and root length in castor.
- Intervention effect Isolate MAJ PIA03 at 50 % fertilizer enhanced stem base diameter, shoot length and root biomass of castor.
- Intervention effect Isolate MAJ PIA03 at 50 % fertilizer enhanced leaf moisture content of castor.
- Intervention effect Isolate MAJ PIA03 augments the nutritional quality of castor leaf.
- Observation Isolate MAJ PIA03 was identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa by polyphasic approach and 16S rRNA gene homology.
- Recommendation The authors recommend bio-formulated P. aeruginosa MAJ PIA03 with 50 % less recommended NPK as an effective way to improve castor plant growth.
