Cyanobacterial Catalase Activity Prevents Oxidative Stress Induced by Pseudomonas fluorescens DUS1-27 from Inhibiting Brassica napus L. (canola) Growth.

Plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) inhabit the rhizosphere of plants and are capable of enhancing plant growth through a number of mechanisms. A strain of Pseudomonas fluorescens DUS1-27 was identified as a potential PGPB candidate based on its ability to increase the growth of Brassica napus L. (canola) over that of uninoculated control plants in a soil-based system.
