Assessment of bacterial inoculant formulated with Paraburkholderia tropica to enhance wheat productivity
Paraburkholderia tropica is an endophytic nitrogen-fixing bacterium isolated from the rhizosphere, rhizoplane, and internal tissues of sugarcane and corn plants in different geographical regions. Other plant-growth-promoting abilities, such as phosphate solubilization and antifungal activity, have a...

Paraburkholderia tropica is an endophytic nitrogen-fixing bacterium isolated from the rhizosphere, rhizoplane, and internal tissues of sugarcane and corn plants in different geographical regions.
