| Description |
A phosphate-solubilizing bacterial strain BIHB
723 isolated from the rhizosphere of Hippophae rhamnoides
was identified as Acinetobacter rhizosphaerae on the basis
of phenotypic characteristics, carbon source utilization pattern, fatty acid methyl esters analysis, and 16S rRNA gene sequence. The strain exhibited the plant growth-promoting attributes of inorganic and organic phosphate solubilization, auxin production, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate deaminase activity, ammonia generation, and siderophore production. A significant increase in the growth of pea,
chickpea, maize, and barley was recorded for inoculations
under controlled conditions. Field testing with the pea also
showed a significant increment in plant growth and yield.
The rifampicin mutant of the bacterial strain effectively
colonized the pea rhizosphere without adversely affecting
the resident microbial populations.
