Improved chromium tolerance of Medicago sativa by plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR)
Abstract Background Soil pollution by heavy metals increases the bioavailability of metals like hexavalent chromium (Cr (VI)), subsequently limiting plant growth and reducing the efficiency of phytoremediation. Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) have substantial potential to enhance plant g...
