Beschreibung
The last few decades have seen a flurry of activity in the synthesis and development of Plant growth promoting bacteria and fungi and their consortia as biocontrol agent. Various strategies can be envisaged to synthesize by exploiting the reactivity of this organisms with their derivatives by various researchers. Biocontrol agents and its derivatives were also reported to have promising bioactivities, including antibiotic production, antibacterial, siderophore and hormones producing properties, primary, secondary and volatile metabolites producing activities. The aim of this book is to provide a brief knowledge about plant growth promoting rhizobacteria and their activity on different biometric parameters of plants. We have included their characterization at laboratory scale and in plant growth promotion and in biological control in chick pea pot trials. This study is carried out by Dr. Aarti Thakkar at Shri A.N. Patel P.G. Institute, Anand (Gujarat). We hope the readers can enjoy this text and find it useful in their respective studies.
