Evaluation of Bacterial Endophytes for their Plant Growth Promotion in vitro Condition

Endophytes are the group of microbes may be fungi or bacteria which asymptomatically inhabit the internal tissues of plants; they colonize the same ecological niches as disease-causing organisms. Endophytes are are known to control the plant diseases by suppressing the pathogens but they also helps in plant growth promotion. Some of the mechanisms in plant growth promotion are biological nitrogen fixation, ACC deaminase synthesis, siderophore production, IAA production, phosphate solubilization, induction of host plant resistance mechanisms, phytohormone production and synthesis of pathogen inhibiting volatile compounds (Glick, 2015). The seed play an important role in agriculture . The overall development of the plant depends upon the seed germination and vigour of seeds.
