Cadmium-tolerant bacteria induce metal stress tolerance in cereals
Cadmium usually hampers plant growth, but bacterial inoculation may improve stress
tolerance in plants to Cd by involving various mechanisms. The objective was to
characterize and identify bacteria that improve plant growth under Cd stress and reduce Cd
uptake. Cadmium-tolerant bacteria were isolated from rhizosphere soil, which was irrigated
with tannery effluent, and six strains were selected as highly tolerant to Cd, showing
minimum inhibitory concentration as 500 mg L− 1 or 4.45 mmol L− 1. These strains were …
