Abstract
This study investigates the growth-promoting potential of endophytic bacteria isolated from finger millet (Eleusine coracana L.) landraces, focusing on their ability to produce plant hormones, solubilize phosphate, and exhibit urease activity.Eight bacterial endophytes were evaluated for their phytohormone production using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).Among them, the GDEL1 isolate demonstrated the highest levels of indole acetic acid (IAA) (53.76 g/mL) and gibberellic acid (GA3) (36.42 g/mL), along with notable production of abscisic acid (ABA) (4.16 g/mL) and salicylic acid (SA) (3.44 g/mL).Additionally, KER1 and KER2 exhibited effective phosphate solubilization, while GDEL1 and KEL1 displayed significant urease activity.GDEL1 was further assessed through seed treatment, seedling root dip, and soil application under greenhouse conditions.Seed treatment resulted in the most pronounced improvements in shoot length (61.33 cm), root length (31.60 cm), and biomass production (1.01 g).These findings suggest that seed treatment with the GDEL1 endophytic strain could serve as an effective strategy to enhance finger millet growth, reduce reliance on chemical fertilizers, and promote sustainable agricultural practices.
