“…These compounds might be hydrocyanic acid (HCN) produced by A. chroococcum (Gopalakrishnan et al, 2011), salicylic acid, 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHBA), and 3,5-DHBA conjugated with threonine and lysine by A. lipoferum (Shah et al, 1992), and volatile organics belonging to pyrazines such as 2-methylpyrazine and 2-ethyl-3,6-dimethylpyrazine by P. putida (Patel et al, 2021). Owing to the production of these compounds, and strengthening the plants by phosphate solubilization, nitrogen fixation, and producing siderophores, indole acetic acid (IAA), gibberellins, cytokinins, and vitamins (Gopalakrishnan et al, 2011;Seddigui Kiasari et al, 2018;Mehmood et al, 2021), these PGPB are already reported to have anti-fungal activity against common scabs of potato (Sowanpreecha and Rerngsamran, 2018), late blight of potato (Hultberg et al, 2010), Fusarium wilt of radish and some other plant diseases caused by soil-borne fungi (Weller, 2007).…”
