Journal ArticleDOI
Agricultural uses of plant biostimulants
TL;DR: There is growing scientific evidence supporting the use of biostimulants as agricultural inputs on diverse plant species, such as increased root growth, enhanced nutrient uptake, and stress tolerance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cytokinin production by plant growth promoting rhizobacteria and selected mutants
TL;DR: G20-18 and the mutants CNT1 and CNT2 may be useful for determination of the role of cytokinin production in plant growth promotion by PGPR, as well as for characterization in pure culture using immunoassay and thin layer chromatography.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of bacteria isolated from rice for plant growth promotion and biological control of seedling disease of rice.
TL;DR: It is indicated that selected endophytic bacterial strains have potential for control of seedling disease of rice and for plant growth promotion.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The ability of Pseudomonas fluorescens G20-18 to efficiently control P. syringae infection in Arabidopsis is identified, allowing maintenance of tissue integrity and ultimately biomass yield and demonstrates microbial cytokinin production as a novel microbe-based, hormone-mediated concept of biocontrol.
Book ChapterDOI
Role of Cytokinins in Plant Growth Promotion by Rhizosphere Bacteria
TL;DR: This chapter reviews the structure and function of cytokinin in plant tissues and their production by plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) and a role for microbially-produced cytokinins in plant growth and development is proposed.
