“…GMKU 336 had less reduction of chlorophyll content. The result was similar to that with PGP Azospirillum 25 and ACCD-producing Bacillus 12 which significantly increased chlorophyll content in respective maize and rice grown in high salt conditions. Furthermore, salt stress significantly accelerated ethylene synthesis in all rice treatments.…”

“…Interestingly, salt treatment reduced surface colonization, but not colonization inside the root (Fischer et al 2000). Azospirillum inoculation at NaCl concentrations up to -1.2 MPa significantly increased chlorophyll, K, Ca, soluble saccharides, and protein contents as compared with control plants growing without NaCl (Hamdia and El-Komy 1997), similar to alleviating water stress on wheat plants grown under drought conditions (El-Komy et al 2003). Inoculating A. brasilense on wheat seedlings exposed to severe salt (NaCl) or osmotic (polyethylene glycol) stresses significantly reversed part of the negative effects; both stresses reduced relative elongation rate of shoots.…”

“…The most important microorganisms that play a significant role in soil fertility in tropical and temperate regions of the world and isolated from the rhizosphere of a diverse range of cereals, including corn, millet, sorghum, and wheat is Azospirillum sp. (Hamdia and El-Komy, 1998), play an important role in the promotion of plant growth (Steenhoudt and Vandeleyden 2000) and capable of affecting growth and yield of numerous plant species and its ability to produce various phytohormones that improve root growth adsorption of water, minerals that eventually yield larger and in many cases, more productive plants (Dobbelaerae et al 2003) and can also mineralize nutrients from the soil, sequester Fe, survive under harsh environmental conditions, and support beneficial mycorrhizal-plant associations (Bashan et al 2006). Azospirillum can help plants minimize the negative effects of abiotic stresses because, Azospirillum is the most studied PGPB and excluding rhizobia (Diaz-Zorita andFernandez-Canigia, 2009 andBashan, 2009), can survive in the absence of their host owing to the presence polyβ-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) (Okon and Itzigsohn 1992) and polysaccharide synthesis (Del Gallo and Idaegi, 1990) Inoculated wheat plants with salt-tolerant Azospirillum enhanced non-symbiotic nitrogen fixation capability in salinity soil by produces growth-promoting substances such as IAA, gibberellins, pantothenic acid, thiamine and niacin which promotes root proliferation and improve the plant growth and yield.…”
