Sustaining the growth of Pinaceae trees under nutrient-limited edaphic conditions via plant-beneficial bacteria. by Akshit Puri, Kiran Preet Padda, Chris P Chanway

“…We hypothesized that plant growth-promoting bacteria could play a significant role in sustaining the growth of lodgepole pine trees in the SBPSxc region. Testing this hypothesis, we evaluated plant growth-promoting abilities of six endophytic bacterial strains previously isolated from lodgepole pine trees growing in this region. …”
