[High effective phosphate-solubilizing bacteria: their isolation and promoting effect on corn seedling growth].

By using modified PVK plate method, 44 strains of phosphate-solubilizing bacteria (PSB) were isolated from the root surface of wild plants growing well in calcareous soil. After 7-day incubation in a liquid medium NBRIP, the total P in the cultures of strains K3 and K9 reached 643.2 microg x ml(-1) and 608.
