PGPB are free-living soil, rhizosphere, rhizoplane, and phylosphere bacteria that, under some conditions, are beneficial for plants Most of the activities of PGPB have been studied in the rhizosphere. PGPB promote plant growth by directly affect the metabolism of the plants by providing substances that are usually in short supply. The present investigation was conducted at Department of Biological Sciences, Sam Higginbottom Institute of Agriculture, Technology and Sciences (Deemed-to-be University) Allahabad, during Rabi season 2015-16. Tomato plants variety NTL-186 was transplanted in pot during 2nd week of Fabuary. The experiment was carried out using 11 treatments with three replication on completely randomized design. | Impact of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria with FYM on the growth, yield attribute and yield of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.)
