Abstract:Some of non-pathogenic bacteria are effective biocontrol agents and plant
growth inducers besides its degradative property on polycyclic aromatic
hydrocarbons (PAH). Herein, we report a novel candidate Serratia species
isolated in the purpose of PAH degradation, with its plant-growth-promoting
and antifungal effect against Phytophthora infestans. Properties of
bacterium determined by antifungal and phytostimulation assay under in vitro
conditions displayed production of indole-3-acetic acid (… Show more
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.
