Abstract
The current investigation depicts the individual and synergistic effects of two important plant growth promoting microbial groups viz. Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) and Phosphate Solubilizing Bacteria (PSB) in alleviating the phytotoxic impacts of chromium in Vigna radiata (L) R. Wilczek (green gram) seedlings. Cr6+ (100 ppm) treatment caused a stiff decline of about 44%, 72%, 68%, and 49% reduction in root and shoot length as well as leaf number and leaf area respectively as compared to control after 90 d of exposure. However, combined amendment with PGPR and PSB causes a significant amelioration of Cr toxicity though doubling the shoot length and leaf area with a 4 times increase in root length and leaf number after 90 d of growth. Total chlorophyll synthesis showed a 68% reduction in Cr6+ (100 ppm) which was ameliorated by combined treatments of PGPR and PSB. It showed a 123% increased total chlorophyll content than Cr6+ (100 ppm) whereas individual application of PGPR and PSB showed a 46% and 27% increase respectively. Combined application of PGPR and PSB with a toxic dose of Cr showed significant boosting alleviation ability and indicates its ameliorative role for abatement of Cr-induced toxicity.
