Abstract

This study aimed at assessing the effect of three plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) either singly or in combination on groundnut under pot culture experiment. Seeds were inoculated with single and combined solution of 10 9 CFU/ml of rhizobacteria. Seeds were not inoculated for the control variant. The highest germination percentage, seedling length, vigour index, dry weight, photosynthetic pigment, biochemical studied and enzyme studied was obtained with the combination of Rhizobium + Pseudomonas + Bacillus as compared to the uninoculated control. The result of the study indicate the potential of harnessing the benefit combination of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria to improve the germination and biochemical content of groundnut.
