Comprehensive assessment of growth parameters for screening endophytic bacterial strains in Solanum lycopersicum (Tomato)

Abstract

(Tomato) and the factors like germination percentage, seedling length, biomass production, and leaf variables were analyzed. However, the vigour index was considered as the prime parameter for determining plant growth. In essence, RR2 and RR4 strains were observed as effective growth promoter, hence in future they can be utilized as effective biofertilizers.
