Implication

Experimental study evaluates beneficial microorganisms improving wheat germination and fungal pathogen resistance, suggesting eco-friendly agricultural practices.

Key Points

To evaluate the effects of beneficial microorganisms on wheat seed germination and protection against fungal pathogens.
Isolated and identified fungal pathogens using molecular techniques.
Screened beneficial microorganisms for growth promotion effects.
Assessed root and shoot lengths in treated plants compared to control.
Evaluated combined effects of selected microorganisms in pot experiments.
A. flavus significantly improved root (17.07 cm) and shoot elongation (11.2 cm).
P. fluorescens B6 increased root and shoot lengths to 14.09 cm and 15.49 cm, respectively.
Co-inoculation of P. fluorescens B6 and A. flavus resulted in the highest shoot height (81.78 cm) and root length (58 cm).
Combined treatments reduced pathogen infection and enhanced biomass and grain weight.
