OVERVIEW OF PLANT GROWTH-PROMOTING BACTERIA | Biochemical and Genetic
Mechanisms Used by Plant Growth Promoting Bacteria World Scientific Search This Book …

Plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) facilitate plant growth in two ways, either by direct
stimulation or by biocontrol (ie, suppressive activity against soil-borne diseases). The direct …

Bacteria associated with the plant rhizosphere may have beneficial effects on plant growth
by providing nutrients and growth factors, or by producing antibiotics and siderophores …

One way to deal with the expected increase in world population and the concomitant need to
globally feed a large number of additional people is to increase agricultural productivity …

Many plant-beneficial rhizobacteria have been described in the literature. These have been
isolated from the plant root, where they usually live under conditions of nutrient starvation …

The worldwide increases in both environmental damage and human population pressure
have the unfortunate consequence that global food production may soon become …

Résumé About 2–5% of rhizobacteria, when present in large number, are able to promote
plant growth. Production of plant hormones and improving mineral nutrition are examples of …

In the past 15–20 years, there has been increasing interest throughout the world in studies
involving plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) and their positive interactions with plants …

Plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) control the damage to plants from phytopathogens
by a number of different mechanisms including: outcompeting the phytopathogen, physical …

Certain microbes stimulate plant growth. The mechanisms used by such microbes to
achieve this are: biofertilization (ie increasing the supply of mineral nutrients to the plant); …
