Overview

Randomized trial demonstrates enhanced phosphorus mobilization in chili plants using Lysinibacillus macroides, suggesting improved nutrient management.

Key Points

Evaluate the phosphate-solubilizing ability of Lysinibacillus macroides and its potential as a climate-resilient biofertilizer.
Characterized 23 rhizospheric bacterial isolates using qualitative and quantitative assays.
Assessed solubilization efficiency on Pikovskaya’s agar and NBRIP broth.
Conducted seed biopriming to validate effects on germination and seedling vigor.
Lysinibacillus macroides showed significant solubilization of tricalcium phosphate up to 30.03 μg mL–1.
Germination rate enhanced to 96.66% with a Seedling Vigor Index of 766.88.
Demonstrated tolerance to pH (4-10), temperature (15-45°C), and salinity (0.01-0.1% NaCl).
