Rhizobacteria (PGPR) that promote the plant growth are essential component of sustainable agriculture. Pea (Pisum sativum L.) root nodule Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. viciae ten strains were cultured at two different temperatures (28°C and 45°C). Out of eight strains screened the three N25, N30 and N40 were temperature tolerant while only one strain (N40) showed tolerance to pH11. The growth of Rhizobium strain N40 at 45 °C was 96.8 percent as compared to the growth of the at 28°C. The temperature tolerant strain N40 produced maximum IAA and solubilized insoluble tri calcium phosphate compared to other strains and thus can be used microbial inoculant in biofertilizer technology.

The symbiotic system of Legumes and root-nodule bacteria is a significant process for enriching barren and dry soils and supporting plant growth. The aim of this study was to isolate root-nodule bacteria from Medicago falcate and to select high activity strains with resistance to environmental stress. As a result, only MSZ-25 strain grew in the medium containing 0.8M NaCl, with pH4.8-9.8 and at temperatures of 4-45°С. All rhizobial isolates were tolerant to the concentrations of 0.01-0.1% Pb(NO3)2, 0.01% ZnSO4, CdCI2, CuCI2 and NiCI2. The strains were also resisted to penicillin 10μ/ml, erythromycin 10μ/ml, and chlorampenicol 10μ/ml but the growths of all isolates were inhibited by kanamycin 30μ/ml, novobiocin 30μ/ml and tetracycline 10μ/ml.

Cowpea, an annual legume, suffers from several disease symptoms caused by Macrophomina phaseolina. Rhizobacteria isolated from pesticide infested soil, identified by blast analysis as Bacillus cereus, Bacillus safensis, Pseudomonas donghuensis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ascertained tolerant to at least 0.1% pesticides viz. methomyl, imidacloprid and carbendazim. In vitro antagonism against pathogen exhibited maximum by P. aeruginosa 63%. All rhizobacteria were bestowed with attributes responsible for pathogen control and plant growth promotion. Field evaluation resulted highest 75% disease control, enhancement of length, nodule counts, biomass or yield per plant by P. aeruginosa. All rhizobacteria induced systemic resistance in cowpea under challenged inoculation with pathogen by augmenting defensive enzyme production. Highest Phenylalanine Ammonia Lyase activity was expressed in P. aeruginosa treated plants 1.02 μMoles/ml/min, Polyphenol Oxidase by P. donghuensis 1.39 μMoles/ml/min, Chitinase by B. cereus 0.745 μMoles/ml/min and 400 percent relative activity of Peroxidase by P. aeruginosa. The rhizobacteria were prospective for plant disease control, growth promotion and as immunity boosters in pesticide and heavy metal infested toxic environment.
