The pesticides are known for the control of pests as well as on the other hand these are hazards for human, animal, plants and microbial life. To degrade the pesticides, biodegradation is an efficient method. The Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) which are associated with the rhizosphere of the plant are found to be beneficial for the pesticide degradation in the soil. In the present investigation, these bacteria were used for the pesticide degradation. The effect of pesticide degradation on by PGPR on the growth of cotton variety RCH2 was studied. With the application of PGPR along with pesticide, Malathion the growth of cotton variety was found improved in some cases while as compare to control this growth was slightly less.
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.
