Soil beneficial bacteria and their role in plant growth promotion: a review
TLDR
Free-living soil bacteria beneficial to plant growth, usually referred to as plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), are capable of promoting plant growth by colonizing the plant root and can inhibit phytopathogens.
