Effect of Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria on the Growth and Yield of Foxtail Millet (Setaria italica L. Beauv)

The use of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) is a sustainable way for efficient absorption and utilization nutrients by crop species to enhance growth yield persistence against biotic abiotic stresses. However, the PGPRs in drought tolerant crops such as foxtail millet limited because low adaptability moisture conditions. In this study, acclimatised conditions, were isolated from rhizosphere sorghum their promoting effect on was studied. Four isolates, Pseudomonas putida, Bacillus subtilis, cereus, Pantoea Stewart cultivated black soils. Further identity confirmed sequencing 16S rDNA.
 Foxtail seeds inoculated with newly PGPR strains evaluated shoot root under greenhouse Effect related traits ear-head weight, grain fodder length assessed field Newly boosted average when cereus (19.33 cm) putida (28.66 cm), respectively. On other hand, among four bacterial cultures, subtilis enhanced weight (40.42%), (30.19%), (49.72%) (42.56%) compared control group When considered collectively, empirical evidence suggests that can improve
