Article Synopsis
  • - This study investigated the presence of beneficial pseudomonad strains in the rhizosphere of rice plants in Tamil Nadu, focusing on their potential to support plant growth.
  • - A total of 21 pseudomonad isolates were confirmed using specific PCR screening and analyzed for genetic diversity, grouping them into seven clusters based on ARDRA analysis.
  • - Two promising isolates (S9 and O3) demonstrated multiple plant growth-promoting activities, indicating their potential as bioinoculants for rice cultivation.
