The use of multispecies bacterial bio-inputs is a promising strategy for sustainable crop production over the use of single-species inoculants. Studies of the use of multispecies bio-inputs in horticultural crops are scarce, not only on the growth-promoting effects of each bacterium within the formulation, but also on their compatibility and persistence in the root environment. In this work, we described that a multispecies bacterial bio-input made up of Az39, PAL-5, Pf-5 and sp.

Paraburkholderia tropica is an endophytic nitrogen-fixing bacterium isolated from the rhizosphere, rhizoplane, and internal tissues of sugarcane and corn plants in different geographical regions. Other plant-growth-promoting abilities, such as phosphate solubilization and antifungal activity, have also been reported for this bacterium. With an aim at investigating the potential use of P.
