Insights on strain 115 plant growth-promoting bacteria traits and its contribution in lead stress alleviation in pea (Pisum sativum L.) plants.

The present study aims to characterize the plant growth-promoting bacterial traits of Bacillus simplex (strain 115). This bacterium was inoculated in hydroponically conditions to improve pea (Pisum sativum L.) growth submitted to lead (Pb) toxicity.
