ABSTRACT:
A biological inoculant for enhancing the growth of plants is disclosed. The inoculant includes the bacterial strainsHerbaspirillum seropedicae2A,Pantoea agglomeransP101,Pantoea agglomeransP102,Klebsiella pneumoniae342,Klebsiella pneumoniaezmvsy,Herbaspirillum seropedicaeZ152,Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicusPA15, with or without a carrier. The inoculant also includes strains of the bacteriumPantoea agglomeransandK. pneumoniaewhich are able to enhance the growth of cereal grasses. Also disclosed are the novel bacterial strainsHerbaspirillum seropedicae2A,Pantoea agglomeransP101 and P102, andKlebsiella pneumoniae342 and zmvsy.
