An experiment was conducted during the year 2014-15 in Microbiology Laboratory, Division of Soil Science and Agricultural Chemistry, ICAR- IIHR, Hesaraghatta, Bengaluru, India for “Evaluating the zinc solubilizing bacterial strains on growth, yield and quality of Tomato”. The experiment consisted of six treatments with five replications, including five different zinc solubilizing bacteria (Bacillus aryabhattai, Pseudomonas taiwenensis, Bacillus sp. (PAN-TM1), Enterobacter oryzae and Bacillus aerophilus) and uninoculated control, out of five bacteria Bacillus aryabhattai was used as reference strain. | Evaluation of Zinc solubilizing bacterial (ZSB) strains on growth, yield and quality of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum)
