Five bacterial cultures and one mycorrhiza culture were applied on seeds of Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.). All the bacterial cultures and mycorrhiza showed increased agronomical traits and enhancement in nutrient uptake like potassium, nitrogen and phosphorus. Seedlings treated with bacteria and mycorrhiza also analyzed for flavonoids, phenols and super oxide dismutase (SOD). Increased level of phenols, flavonoids and SOD confirmed microorganism effect on plant growth promotion. PS-05 and mycorrhiza were most effective in plant growth promoting activities. |
