Plant growth-promoting bacteria from Uzungöl forest stimulate rice growth via seed biopriming and root inoculation: isolation and functional characterization of potent PGPR strains from rhizosphere soils of different trees
These findings concluded that inoculation with forest-derived rhizobacteria is an effective strategy to enhance early growth of rice in soilless systems. Understanding the genetic basis of their growth promotion, coupled with large-scale field validation, could advance low-cost, sustainable rice cultivation with minimal reliance on agrochemicals.
