Article Synopsis
- * Researchers isolated 177 bacterial strains from açaí rhizospheres to assess their ability to promote plant growth, noting factors like seasonality affect soil properties, with many strains showing beneficial traits such as IAA production and fungal growth inhibition.
- * Two specific bacterial strains were identified that significantly improved açaí seed germination rates, particularly under stress conditions, highlighting their potential as biofertilizers to aid in the cultivation of açaí palms.
