Abstract:Maize (Zea mays) is a vital cereal crop used as a staple diet in many countries. In contemporary farming practises, inoculation with plant-growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) can be promoted as a sustainable alternative to chemical fertilizers and pesticides in cereal crops including maize. For experimental verification of the above-mentioned hypothesis, four PGPR inoculants Pseudomonas fluorescens, P. putida, Azospirillum lipoferum and Bacillus subtilis were applied to three maize genotypes (AXE*, PMH1 and … Show more
