Zinc solubilizing bacteria and their potential as bioinoculant for growth promotion of green soybean ( L. Merr.).

Zinc-solubilizing rhizobacteria can convert insoluble zinc to an accessible form and increase Zn bioavailability in soil, which help mitigate Zn deficiency in crops. In this work, 121 bacterial isolates were isolated from the rhizosphere soils of peanuts, sweet potatoes, and cassava, and their capability to solubilize Zn was evaluated using Bunt and Rovira's agar containing 0.1% ZnO and ZnCO.

Zinc-Solubilizing spp. as Bioinoculants for Promoting the Growth of Soybean ( (L.) Merrill).

Zinc-solubilizing bacteria can convert the insoluble form of zinc into soluble forms available to plants. This study was conducted to isolate and screen zinc-solubilizing actinobacteria from rhizosphere soils and to assess their effect on vegetable soybean growth. In total, 200 actinobacteria strains belonging to 10 genera were isolated from rhizosphere soil samples.
