Plant-growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) elicit activation of phenylpropanoid pathway in plants which leads to phenolics production and enhanced antioxidant capacity. The purpose of this work was to assess the antioxidant activity of soybean plants, Glycine max L., inoculated with PGPR (isolates of Azotobacter chroococcum, Streptomyces sp. and mixture of these) during plant development, as well as yield of inoculated soybean plants. PGPR applied in the experiment stimulated flavonoids and isoflavone synthesis, which enhanced non-enzymatic antioxidant ability of soybean plants. Also, PGPRs stimulated accumulation of daidzein and genistin in soybean seedlings (5-fold and 2-fold compared to control values, respectively). The mixture of PGPRs showed positive impact on antioxidant activity (10-20% higher activity) and yield components of soybean which proposed this inoculum as possibly potent bio-fertilizer in soybean production.

In chickpea soil salinity is one of the most important factors affecting yield, nodulation and physiological events. Salinity affects the growth of salt sensitive varieties. The inoculation of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) allows to reduce the harmful effects of salinity. To prevent adverse effects of chickpea salinity, the effects of four bacteria (Rhizobium ciceri, A-08, EB-80 and Isolate-30) in root rhizosphere under controlled environmental growth conditions were studied. This study has shown that PGPRs play an important role in growth regulators for the positive development of plants under salt stress. It has been observed that these isolates, common in roots, are tolerant to salinity antioxidant activity and an increase in proline, MDA, APX, SOD and CAT concentrations were found under saline conditions when unvaccinated plants were compared with grafted plants. The results also suggested that inoculated PGPR strains can reduce salinity stress by increasing salt tolerance.

Soybean is a very important crop commodity in Indonesia. Increasing soybean production on dryland as cultivation land need to be carried out. Dryland have issues with either of nutrient and water availability which is not supportable for plant growth. Therefore, the application of nano-silica and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are expected to increase nutrient absorption, synthesis of plant growth hormone and increase in plant resistance to drought stress. The growth of drought-resistant plants is able to be showed through the status of stomata and trichomes on leaves. So that, this study aimed to determine the stomata and trichome performance of soybean plants of Anjasmoro cultivar using nano-silica and PGPR as fertilizers. The study design used a completely randomized design with 2 factors with three replication. The first factor was nano silica concentration i.e. 0, 100 and 200 ppm. The second factor was PGPR concentration i.e. 0, 5, 10, and 15%. Results showed that the nanosilica and PGPR applications had no significant effect on stomata and trichome status of Anjasmoro cultivar except for stomatal aperture and the ratio of the size of the stomata openings. A positive correlation has been found in the study between stomata openings and soybean yields.


The rhizosphere is the slim region of soil that’s directly influenced by root secretions and accompanying soil microorganisms known as root microbiome. The rhizosphere involving the soil pores comprises numerous beneficial bacterium and others different microorganisms. Microbial communities play a vital role within the functioning of plants by stimulating their morphology, physiology and development. Several species of the rhizosphere microorganism are helpful to plant growth and overall productivity. The useful plant-microbe associations within the rhizosphere are the principal determinants of plant and soil health (SH). Rhizobacteria comprise mycorrhization helper microorganism and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are support arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AM fungi) to colonize the plant roots. Tomato is the second most common cultivated vegetable within the world for biological process and functions. Tomato has high values in soluble fat, vitamin A, B, C, lycopene, flavonoids, and β-carotene and is of course low in calories. Tomato consumption are extremely useful to human health (HH) because of several crucial nutrients are accessible. In current study, the impact of inoculating tomato with consortium AM fungi and PGPR on growth, fruit quality and productivity was estimated. The inoculated AM fungi are containing Aculospora logula-15%, Glomus fasciculatum-20%, Glomus intraradices-40%, Gigaspora margarita-15% and Scutellospora heterogama-10% infective propagules in inoculum. The consortium PGPR treatments were inoculated with Azotobacter chroococcum, Pseudomonas fluoresces and Fraturia aurantia (10-9CFU/g) and also the Control [100% Recommended Rate of fertilizers (RRF)] treatment was without microbial inoculated. Phyto-morpho-chemical factors, containing Lycopene, β-carotene, antioxidant activity, growth, fruit yield, fruit potassium (K) and macro and micro nutrients uptake in shoot were improved by AM fungi and PGPR mediated tomato as compared with control (100% RRF). Maximum lycopene, β-carotene, fruit K and antioxidant activity (AA) were recorded in plants treated with multiple biostimulants of AM fungi + PGPR treatment. Maximum height, biomass and marketable yield were observed in AM fungi + PGPR treated plants and minimum in control (100% RRF). A correlational statistics between lycopene, β-carotene, AA with fruit and shoot K (P

The effect of inoculation of three plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) that is <italic>Rhizobium japonicum</italic>, <italic>Azotobacter chroococcum</italic> and <italic>Azospirillum brasilense</italic> and mixture of them on phytohormones and polyamines of soybean under different irrigation regimes was investigated. Drought stress induced by irrigation withholding until 40, 80 and 120 mm evaporation from evaporation pan. However seed bacterization of soybean was accompanied with 20 kg ha<sup>−1</sup> nitrogen. In addition, 20 and 100 kg ha<sup>−1</sup> nitrogen were considered as control treatments. The results showed that drought stress significantly decreased cytokinin, gibberellin and auxin accumulation in plant tissues. By contrast, drought stress led to increase in abscisic acid accumulation in soybean plants. Polyamines that are putrescine and spermidine increased due to drought stress and then decreased under severe drought stress. PGPR application had positive effect on growth promoting phytohormones compared to control treatment. However the highest accumulation of cytokinin, gibberellin and auxin was related to 100 kg ha<sup>−1</sup> nitrogen treatment. In case of abscisic acid PGPR application decreased its accumulation. Asignificant decrease as observed on polyamines accumulation when PGPRs were applied on stressed soybean plants.

Mikroba Bacillus subtilis merupakan agen pengendali hayati mempunyai kelebihan sebagai Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) yaitu dapat berfungsi sebagai biofertilizer, biostimulan, biodekomposer dan bioprotektan. Tujuan penelitian mengetahui potensi B. subtilis dalam merombak bahan organik sebagai usaha meningkatkan ketersediaan bahan organik tanah yang semakin menurun. Penelitian menggunakan Rancangan Petak Terbagi dengan berbagai  bahan organik sebagai petak utama (B0 = tanpa bahan organik, B1 = kotoran ayam,  B2 = kotoran kambing, B3 = kotoran sapi) dan aplikasi B.subtilis sebagai anak petak (A0 = 0 cc/L, A1 = 5cc/L, A2 = 10 cc/L, Pengamatan meliputi variabel tinggi tanaman, indeks luas daun, jumlah buah per tanaman, berat buah per tanaman, dan bahan organik tanah. Data pengamatan  dianalisis ragam  menggunakan  Statistical Product and Service Solutions (SPSS) versi 25 dan dilanjutkan dengan uji Duncan untuk mengetahui signifikansi perbedaan antar perlakuan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan tidak terdapat interaksi antara bahan organik kotoran ternak dan konsentrasi B. subtilis terhadap semua variabel pengamatan. Potensi B. subtilis sangat baik dalam mendekomposisi bahan organik yang ditunjukkan dengan peningkatan bahan organik, dan hasil terbaik pada kotoran  sapi (B3) dan konsentrasi B. subtilis 15 mL/L masing-masing sebesar 46.47 % dan 34.76 %. Variabel pertumbuhan tidak berbeda nyata kecuali tinggi tanaman dengan pertambahan tinggi paling banyak pada pemberian kotoran kambing sebesar 170.69 %.
