Article Synopsis
- Peanut production can be enhanced by using plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), with a field study showing an 8% increase in seed yield and improved radiation use efficiency (4-14%).
- The use of PGPR resulted in significant changes in soil enzyme activity and microbial abundance, with dehydrogenase and fluorescein diacetate activities increasing by 28% and 17% respectively, but did not significantly affect microbial diversity.
- PGPR altered the relative abundance of key microbial phyla and genera, and influenced genes related to nitrogen fixation, nitrification, and assimilation, ultimately benefiting peanut agronomy without changing rhizosphere diversity.
