“… 16 , 17 In addition, and for the first time, our previous study showed a significant improvement in plant growth in the presence of Bacillus (CFB6: Bacillus paramyides and CFB7: Bacillus thuringiensis ), Pseudomonas (CFB4: Pseudomonas aeruginosa ), of Buttiaxella ( CFB1: Buttiauxella gaviniae ), Pantoea (CFB2: Pantoea vagans ), Aeromonas (CFB3: Aeromonas hydrophila ), and Staphylococcus (CFB5: Staphylococcus epidermidis ). 15 , 35 In addition to stimulating plant growth, CFB isolates increased plant moisture content compared to control. Furthermore, decreased plant growth and yellowing of leaves caused by reduced chlorophyll production, as symptoms of alkalinity and nutrient deficiency conditions, were observed in soil not inoculated with bacteria.…”
