Article Synopsis
- Endophytic bacteria were isolated from two medicinal Rhododendron species in Darjeeling, India, specifically Pseudomonas lurida RGDS03 and Bacillus velezensis RCDL12, using 16S rRNA gene sequencing.
- These bacteria demonstrated abilities like producing growth hormones (IAA and GA), solubilizing phosphate, and fixing nitrogen, with B. velezensis showing the highest production of these beneficial compounds.
- The study also found that both bacteria promoted better growth in rice and mung bean seedlings compared to untreated plants, highlighting their potential for enhancing crop development and providing biocontrol against certain plant pathogens.
