Abstract

Plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are naturally occurring soil bacteria that colonize plant roots and promote plant growth. Present study fairly demonstrates the PGPR (Bacillus subtilis ) treatment as an eco-friendly, cost effective,simple, easy deployable and potential tool for productivity enhancement in pearl millet.The increased growth and vigour on PGPR treatment is evident by early germination, increased vigour index, plant height, leaf area, number of tillers, fresh weight and dry weight
