남부도서지역에서 차광처리가 울금(Curcuma aromatica Salisbury)의 주요형질에 미치는 영향

Effect of Shade-method on Agronomic Characteristics of Curcuma aromatica Salisbury in Southern Islands of Korea

The plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), Pseudomonas sp. (A3) and Bacillus sp. (AT33) were isolated from the rhizosphere of Amaranthus blitum collected from soil contaminated with chromium. Bothbacterial strains quantitatively reduced hexavalent chromium to trivalent chromium. Pseudomonas sp. broughter greater conversion of Cr6+ in the medium (100%) as compared to Bacillus sp.(62%). Phaseolus mungo seeds inoculated with Pseudomonas sp. or Bacillus sp. were grown under different concentration of chromium. The monitoredparameters included elongation of shoot and root, fresh weight, dry weight and concentration of chromium in the shoot and root systems. As compared to non inoculated seedlings those inoculated with A3 and AT33 exhibited better growth.
