Phosphate-Solubilizing Bacteria (PSB) contribute to healthy plant growth, improved yield, and phosphorus utilization in several crops and are potentially useful as a bioinoculant for enhancing sustainable production. The objective of this study is to examine the response of Lady rosetta potatoes to Acinetobacter rudis inoculation as PSB under controlled and field conditions in Kotda chakar village, Ta. Bhuj, Dist. Kutchh, State- Gujarat, India. Plant growth and the productivity of Lady Rosetta potatoes, laboratory isolations, and culture experiments were conducted. The potato tubers were harvested 90 days post-inoculation. The results indicated that there is a significant (p < 0.05) increase in germination plant species compared to the control plots. Acinetobacter rudis has an equal impact on the weight and size of potato tubers, as well as the height and growth of Lady Rosetta potatoes. The control plots showed poor germination and stunted growth of the potato tubers and plants. An increase in P contents was observed following Acinetobacter rudis inoculation, which resulted in an overall increase in plant height, size, and weight of potato tubers. The study concluded that Acinetobacter rudis has enormous potential to be applied as an alternative to PSB for environmental reasons.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
