Plant growth promoting bacteria are the group of bacteria that colonize the
rhizosphere and exert a beneficial impact on plant health and soil fertility. Microbes can directly facilitate the plant growth in several ways such as
syntheses of phytohormones, enzymes or indirectly by protecting from
pathogen via antagonistic activity and by minimizing effect of abiotic stress. Present study was carried out with the sample isolated from rhizosphere of
plant, Chlorophytum borivilianum. Isolates that shows positive activity any
of N2 fixation, phosphate solubilisation, IAA production were studied for
their antagonistic activity against fungi, pot trials on wheat and RAPD of
isolates was done to show relativeness. Four isolates showed antifungal
activity toward plant pathogen, Fusarium oxysporum. Out of these four
isolates D3 showed highest antagonistic activity against F. oxysporum with
89% in term of percentage inhibition. The combination of isolate A3 &amp; D3
significantly enhance the overall growth of wheat. UPGMA cluster method
was used to generate phylogenetic tree. Study can encourage farmers to use
PGPR to enhance crop productivity.
