Significant modulation of functional traits occurred in PGPR strains due to specific root exudates, enhancing their capabilities.
Traits like biofilm formation and chemotaxis saw notable improvements, particularly from NE14 and FD48 strains.
This analysis investigated five diverse PGPR strains and their responses to the root exudates of three rice cultivars at key growth stages.
Understanding these interactions provides a foundation for advancing techniques in rhizosphere engineering to boost crop productivity.
