Abstract :
Plant growth promoting bacteria help in improving crop yields and have agricultural and environmental importance. Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria found in the rhizosphere of the plant in association with the plant roots help to enhance plant growth directly or indirectly. In the present study attempt has been made to study bacteria which possess plant growth promoting activities such as nitrogen fixation, phosphate solubilization and indole acetic acid production.. Samples of soil were collected from places near Junagadh, 22 showed nitrogen fixation, 32 isolates showed phosphate solubilization and 9 showed indole acetic acid production from 54 isolates. Of the selected isolates were further analyzed for the production of siderophores. These isolates have the tendency for the use as plant growth promoting rhizobacteria and biofertilizer.
