Potential of root nodule nonrhizobial endophytic bacteria for growth promotion of <i>Lotus corniculatus</i> L. and <i>Dactylis glomerata</i> L.

Abstract

The use of root nodule endophytic bacteria with PGP traits may find its future application in organic agriculture, as their utilization could decrease the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides and simultaneously promote plant growth, especially in soils with low production quality.
