Plant Growth Promotion Function of Bacillus sp. Strains Isolated from Salt-Pan Rhizosphere and Their Biocontrol Potential against Macrophomina phaseolina
In recent decades, intensive crop management has involved excessive use of pesticides or
fertilizers, compromising environmental integrity and public health. Accordingly, there has
been worldwide pressure to find an eco-friendly and safe strategy to ensure agricultural
productivity. Among alternative approaches, Plant Growth-Promoting (PGP) rhizobacteria
are receiving increasing attention as suitable biocontrol agents against agricultural pests. In
the present study, 22 spore-forming bacteria were selected among a salt-pan rhizobacteria …
