Nitrogen-Fixing and Plant Growth-Promoting Ability of Two Endophytic Bacterial Strains Isolated from Sugarcane Stalks
Two N2-fixing bacteria isolates, B11S and B8S, were obtained from the surface-sterilized stalks of sugarcane cultivars GT11 and B8. Both isolates showed acetylene reduction activity in nitrogen-free media. The tw...
