TLDR
Azospirillum brasilense Cd cell concentration of 105–107 colony-forming units (cfu)/mL applied 24 h before Rhizobium, increased nodule formation in the non root hair zone, more than twofold, in pouch-grown Medicagopolymorpha and Macroptilium atropurpureum seedlings, compared with Rhzobium alone.
Abstract
Azospirillum brasilense Cd cell concentration of 105–107 colony-forming units (cfu)/mL applied 24 h before Rhizobium (106 cfu/mL), increased nodule formation in the non root hair zone, more than tw...

Plant Growth-Promoting Effects of Diazotrophs in the Rhizosphere

TL;DR: It is now clear that associative diazotrophs exert their positive effects on plant growth directly or indirectly through (a combination of) different mechanisms, and further elucidation of the different mechanisms involved will help to make associative Diazotrophic bacteria a valuable partner in future agriculture.

Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria: A Critical Review

TL;DR: Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPRs) are naturally occurring soil bacteria that aggressively colonize plant roots and benefit plants by providing growth promotion.

Proposal for the division of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria into two classifications : biocontrol-PGPB (plant-growth-promoting bacteria) and PGPB

TL;DR: Two research approaches to bacterial inoculation are established: the biocontrol of plant pathogens (Kloepper et al., 1989), and (ii) Azospirillum-related organisms (Bashan and Levanony, 1990).

Ecology of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria

TL;DR: The actual biodiversity of PGPR will be illustrated by examples of genera and species chosen from the literature and their mechanisms of action for the following different groups: diazotrophs, bacilli, pseudomonads, and rhizobia.

Isolation of plant-growth-promoting Bacillus strains from soybean root nodules

TL;DR: Phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene hypervariant region sequences demonstrated that both NEB4 and NEB5 are Bacillus subtilis strains, and that NEB17 is a Bacillus thuringiensis strain.
