Plant growth promoting rhizo-bacteria (PGPR) affect plant growth by producing and releasing secondary metabolites (plant growth regulators/phytohormones/biologically active substances), facilitating the availability and uptake of certain nutrients from the root environment and inhibiting plant pathogenic organisms in the rhizosphere. At the same time, plants produce root exudates containing . sugars, amino acids, organic acids, vitamins, enzymes and organic or inorganic ions. | Screening of Bradyrhizobial isolates for plant growth promoting properties in vitro conditions
