Silicate and Phosphate Solubilizing Halotolerant Rhizobacterium Pseudomonas koreensis MU2 Mitigates Salinity Stress in Soybean (Glycine max L.)

Salinity has been a major limiting factor for the growth of several leguminous plants such as soybean. Silicon (Si) and phosphorus(P) play a key role to combat several biotic and abiotic stresses. These nutritional elements were supplied externally in a large quantity due to low use efficiency which is ultimately posing environmental threat. Hence, the present study is focused on identification of halotolerant rhizobacterium that augment salt stress tolerance in soybean plants through regulating plant metabolism and nutrient acquisition.
