Scrutinizing the Application of Saline Endophyte to Enhance Salt Tolerance in Rice and Maize Plants

The present study aimed to witness the plant–microbe interaction associated with salt tolerance in crops. We isolated the endophytic microbe from the root zone of halophytic grass. Later, the salt tolerance of the endophyte was tested in the saline medium and was identified using nucleotide sequenci...
